Just Another Trucking Podcast

This week, the boys are back, and the energy is… volatile. David starts off in a mood that Jamma describes as "Vekna-level angry," but things quickly spiral into one of the most chaotic and revealing episodes yet.First up, Jamma drops a bombshell about his first week in his new management role. It involves a shouting match, a near-brawl on the warehouse floor, and a surprising peace offering involving pastry. We deep dive into the "fight or flight" response—are you a runner, or do you stand your ground when a driver gets in your face?Meanwhile, David confesses to his new addiction: using AI to develop his trucking game. Is it coding genius or lazy cheating? He breaks down how he’s using technology to build new features (and stranger things skins) without knowing exactly how the code works.Tom takes us into the seedy underbelly of the UK waste industry, exposing a massive illegal fly-tipping scandal in Oxford involving hundreds of trucks and organized crime. This leads to a grim but necessary discussion about truck stop hygiene—specifically, the "piss bottle" epidemic plaguing lay-bys everywhere.Also in this episode:Beard Science: The uncomfortable truth about facial hair follicles and why Jamma thinks beards are "racist."Fact Check: The boys try to guess the true, often gruesome origins of idioms like "Caught Red-Handed," "Balls to the Wall," and "Bite the Bullet."Parenting Fears: From Minecraft prodigies to the terrifying anxiety of watching your kids near a cliff edge.Tom’s New Gig: Why Tom is volunteering for St. John’s Ambulance (and why he’s probably overqualified).It’s educational, it’s slightly gross, and it’s mostly just another trucking podcast.

🥳 JATP - Episode 200: Layoffs, Left-Hand Drives, and Judge Chloe!Welcome to the 200th episode of "Just Another Trucking Podcast!". Join your host Tom and the rest of the crew—David, Chloe, and Jamma—as they finally get around to recording this major milestone.The episode quickly gets into the personal and professional updates since the last recording:🚛 Jamma's Unexpected Job LossJamma shares the devastating and emotional story of being let go from his job just before Christmas, despite having recently received a top-performance bonus. He discusses the struggle of finding new work while coping with personal tragedy , and reveals he has interviews lined up for high-paying roles like an LGV instructor or a jetting and sewage job.⚠️ Crisis at Sellafield: Tom's Rough MonthTom explains why he hasn't been in a decent-sized truck in over a month. He dives deep into the strikes at the colossal Sellafield nuclear decommissioning site, the "lifeblood of the area". This industrial action has resulted in huge amounts of drivers being stood down, with some being unpaid for a month. Tom recounts the grueling 12-hour night shifts he took at the gas plant and the surprising, yet incredibly satisfying, work on the left-hand-drive sweeper truck.⚖️ Judge Chloe & "Am I The Asshole?"The crew takes a dramatic detour into a mock trial: Judge Chloe presides as David takes the role of the prosecutor and Jamma is the defense attorney.Tom is on trial for being an "arsehole" by giving up on cleaning his dusty grab wagon after months of fighting for air conditioning repairs. David throws everything at him, leading Jamma to repeatedly call out "gingerism" and "brownism" in a chaotic, yet hilarious defense. The final verdict is in!❓ Facts of WifeFinally, they play the hilarious game "Facts of Wife" where they guess the origins of common phrases, with Tom proving to be weirdly good at it.🎙️ 200 Episodes of TherapyThe conversation wraps up with a reflection on the podcast's journey, from its humble, poor-audio beginnings to a "therapy" platform that has traveled with them through massive life changes over the years.What did you think of the verdict? Let us know in the comments!Would you like me to draft a summary of the arguments made during the "Judge Chloe" segment?Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/just-another-trucking-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Buckle up for the CHAOTIC 199th episode of Just Another Trucking Podcast – where tech glitches nearly cause host David a full-blown aneurysm, and we dive into the wild world of HGV training gone wrong! 😂 Fresh-off-the-test Clive (age 57, ex-mechanic turned trucker) spills on reversing nightmares, "tramping" horrors, and why the industry's NOT ready for newbies. Plus: Chloe accidentally EARTHQUAKES a hidden office worker in a shipping container (he FLEW out screaming! 🏃‍♂️💥), Tom's boulder-flinging traffic rage, Jamma's hedgehog heroics, and enough spider/cockroach freakouts to make you itch. = From fake AI videos killing YouTube to simulation theories (are we Sims? 👽), theft sprees, and cement trailer death traps – it's trucking chaos at its finest.
