Project 61: Helping Truck Drivers Live Longer, Healthier Lives

Behind the Scenes: How Terminal Managers Run the Show

Every driver makes decisions out there on the road that ripple back to the terminal in ways most people never think about. In Episode 27 of Always Pneumantic, Never Static, host Marcus gets an inside look at how two of Bulk and Spur Transit's terminals actually function from the people running them every single day. Terminal Manager Rob Shope from the Fairview Terminal and Terminal Manager Dale Cetina and Assistant Terminal Manager Jeremy Willison from the Saginaw Terminal join the show to talk about what terminal management really looks like when the phone starts ringing, and the puzzle pieces all have to come together by the end of the day. How do you manage the chaos when five things go sideways at once? How do driver decisions on the road create problems or solutions at the terminal level? What does a great terminal look like from the inside, and what separates the ones that run smoothly from the ones that do not? If you have ever wondered what happens behind the doors once you leave the yard, this is the episode that answers it. New episodes every Wednesday at podcast.bulktransit.com.

Why New CDL Drivers Should Consider Pneumatic Hauling

New CDL holders have more options than most people tell them about, and pneumatic hauling is one of the best-kept secrets in the industry for drivers who want to build a real career fast. In Episode 26 of Always Pneumatic, Never Static, host Marcus sits down with Recruiting and Retention Manager Rachel Dellaposta and driver trainers Jeff Linne and Greg Sigler to make the case for why newer drivers should seriously consider pneumatics as their starting point. Bulk and Spur Transit now hires fresh out of school with no prior experience required, and the three people who recruit, train, and develop those drivers are here to tell you exactly what to expect. What intimidated them when they first started. What orientation actually looks like. What the training process covers and how long it takes before a rookie starts feeling confident behind the wheel of a pneumatic trailer. And what separates the drivers who thrive in this environment from the ones who struggle. If you have a CDL and you are figuring out your next move, this episode answers the questions you did not know to ask. New episodes every Wednesday at podcast.bulktransit.com.

Company Anniversary: Bulk Transit Leadership Looks Back & Ahead

Fifty-four years of rolling down the road, and the people who run Bulk and Spur Transit have something to say about it. In Episode 25, host Marcus brings five of the company's top leaders together for a company anniversary special that is part year-in-review, part state of the union, and entirely for the team who keep this operation moving every single day. Director of Operations Shawn Stephens and Director of Safety Tim Hamilton reflect on the wins, the surprises, and the moments that defined the past year at Bulk and Spur Transit. Then President Bryan DeWolf, Director of Maintenance Brad DeWolf, and Human Resource Director Andrea McClung share their first memories of the company, the things they never want to change, and personal messages sent directly to the employees who make it all possible. This is the episode every Bulk and Spur driver deserves to hear. The people at the top are paying attention; they are proud of what has been built, and they want you to know it.

Staying Fit OTR: Real Talk on Truck Driver Health & Fitness

Eating healthy and staying fit as a truck driver is not impossible. It just requires the right people in your corner showing you how it is actually done. In Episode 24 of Always Pneumantic, Never Static, host Marcus sits down with Rachel Dellaposta, Recruiting and Retention Manager at Bulk and Spur Transit, and driver Greg Sigler for a follow-up conversation that picks up right where the Project 61 episode left off. Both guests take their health and fitness seriously, and they bring the receipts. Real meal prep strategies that work on the road, healthy options you can actually keep in a truck, the mental side of getting yourself into the gym when the last thing you want to do is walk through that door, macro tracking and why understanding protein, carbs, and fats changes everything, and the technology and apps that make staying on track genuinely easier than it used to be. This is not a lecture from someone who has never sat in a cab. These are two people who are doing the work every day, sharing exactly what works for them.

Project 61: Helping Truck Drivers Live Longer, Healthier Lives

The average truck driver lives to 61 years old. That is not a statistic that should be accepted as normal, and Project 61 is a national nonprofit on a mission to change it. In Episode 23 of Always Pneumantic, Never Static, host Marcus sits down with Lindsey Bryan, Health and Wellness Manager at Project 61, for a conversation that every pro driver, OTR driver, and fleet owner needs to hear. Truck drivers have the highest rates of obesity and diabetes of any occupation in the United States, and the lifestyle that comes with the job makes getting healthy feel impossible. Lindsey breaks down what Project 61 is actually doing about it — real stories from drivers who made small changes and saw real results, practical meal planning and snacking strategies built for life on the road, exercise routines that work in a cab or at a rest stop, and the free app powered by Offshift that puts all of it directly in your pocket. No gym required. No subscription fees. No excuses. Download the app and start adding years to your life today. New episodes every Wednesday at podcast.bulktransit.com.
