On episode 848 of WHAT THE TRUCK?!? Dooner is joined by gCaptain’s John Konrad to talk about global turmoil in maritime. First, they’re looking at the US-China trade deal that President Trump just announced. What does it mean for relations between the two superpowers, and how will it impact freight?

Operation Spiderweb has drone warfare at top of mind, but it’s also something John Konrad has been warning about for years. Konrad explains why the US needs drone carriers now.

They’ll also look at Greta Thunberg getting deported from Israel and the state of U.S. shipbuilding.

Plus, a massive Canadian cross-border drug bust involving truckers; a UNFI hack starts to hit store shelves; a bicycle-riding attorney wants to ban spiky truck hubcaps; and more.
