In another mind-bending episode I discuss the Uvalde shooting and other issues. In Chicago an 11 year old carjacks a lady with a gun? What? A 73 year old is beaten to death with a road cone by kids as young as 10? What is happening? We discuss Mrs. Jill Biden and breakfast taco land that she lives in. The George Washington bridge is now cashless. About time. Long lines still happen. Car dealers are buying new cars and immediately selling them for a profit to avoid getting in trouble from the manufacturer. Brilliant. Some Canadians EH are mad that they can’t park in a private lot anymore after trashing it like truckers do. They trashed it like a rock star with empty poutine wrappers. A Reason we are not on Mars.

In this Titanic-era masterpiece I discuss Safe Driver week and what that means. If MJ is illegal here, how can we help someone who is charged with it elsewhere? As-Is means As-Is. Also, if you don’t take an extended warranty expect to have to pay for repairs out of pocket. Period. A Reason we are not on Mars.

Babies are adults that still live with their parents. Ways in which your tax dollars are being wasted. Biden sends oil from the strategic reserve to Europe. Brilliant. Old people get scammed even though they tell me how smart they are.

In a journalistic masterpiece I discuss the recent AB5 situation. The Supreme Court declined to take up AB5 so the 9th Circuit Court ruling stands. There was a hold on enforcement of California AB5 but that will soon end, possibly as soon as today. Will trucking be doomed? Is trucking over? No. Just new laws to comply with. Essentially you are an employee unless you start your own business. Period. Some automotive news including yet another Toyota recall and a reason we are not on Mars wraps today up. Companion video about AB5 on YouTube.

In this likely Grammy nominated episode I discuss the Constitution. Also, CR England may be involved in a Class Action. Speaking of Class Action, Werner is also on the list. Same companies all the time. Weird. Electric cars are now racist. A reason we are not on Mars.

In this Arbor Day masterpiece I examine why some truck drivers do not make much money. They accept little pay. I look at a Tic Tok video in which a person bemoans their low pay situation and how they should change that. A remote controlled semi comes to Tennessee. Is this a good idea? Toyota recalls every BZ4X because the wheels might come off. Nice. I am sick of people complaining about Vroom. Don’t ever buy a car online! It is the second largest purchase most people make and you need to see it in advance of purchase. A reason we are not on Mars.
