  • Episode 6: Who’s Driving That FedEx Truck? And what Is Expedited Freight?
    31 Oct 2026

    Hey you, it’s me. Who’s really driving that FedEx truck you just passed? In this episode, I explain what FedEx Custom Critical is, who owns the trucks, the difference between local and over-the-road drivers, why expedite moves direct from pickup to delivery, and what life looks like for the two-driver teams that run most of it. Whether you’re a driver or just curious, this one’s for you. More at m2gt.com.

  • Episode 5: My Dog Is Traffic-Stopping Handsome!
    30 Oct 2026

    Hey you, it’s me. A Virginia weigh station, a line of trucks backed up onto the highway, twenty officers, and a red light that just wouldn’t turn green, all so someone could give my road dog Thumper a treat. A short, sweet story about life on the road with our four-legged co-pilots. More dog adventures at m2gt.com.

  • Episode 4: The Hidden Costs of Cheap Truck Tires
    30 Oct 2026

    Hey you, it’s me. Two new steer tires failed in under three months, costing us two roadside calls, a broken headlight, and a warranty claim nobody would stand behind.


    In this episode, I break down the real cost of budget truck tires, what to document when a tire fails so your claim can’t be dismissed, and where small fleets and owner-operators can get name-brand tires at fleet pricing. Full checklist and fleet program links at m2gt.com.

  • Episode 3: Dolly’s Tennessean Travel Stop
    30 Oct 2026

    Hey you, it’s me. For this episode, something lighter: a stop at Dolly Parton’s Tennessean Travel Stop in Cornersville, Tennessee, off I-65 at Exit 22. Is a travel stop with Dolly’s name on it worth it for truckers? I cover the parking (spoiler: it doesn’t fill up), spa-worthy restrooms, the showers, the ribs, the best mint chocolate chip around, and the Doggy Parton pet area, plus why it’s worth a stop for regular road-trippers too. Photos and the full review at m2gt.com.

  • Episode 2: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly
    29 Oct 2026

    Hey you, it’s me. Two weeks, California to Pennsylvania and back, twice, covering our dedicated lane while our drivers celebrated their anniversary in Hawaii. It started smooth, then came a peeled steer tire in Tennessee, a $3,000 headlight, and an all-night standstill on I-81 in Virginia after a crash that took the lives of two truck drivers. A real look at what the miles cost, and what they’re worth. Photos and the full story at m2gt.com.

  • Episode 1: Our Story
    29 Oct 2026

    Hey you, it’s me. How does a corporate buyer for Amazon, Sears, and Walmart end up behind the wheel of a big rig? In this episode, I share the whole story: years of moving for work, the day my husband enrolled in trucking school, Top Gun safety training, a shady dealership and a hurricane-flooded Kenworth, and how we finally found our home with FedEx Custom Critical. Plus, meet our road dogs, Thumper and Rocky, and hear why our company is named after a Robert Frost poem. Photos and the full story at m2gt.com.
