Back It UP | 201: (Brown) Gold Rush

Friday, October 25, 2024 • Duration 01:15:18

In this week's episode we are joined by Ryan, a trucker who specializes in transporting septic and liquid waste. Through a blend of weather talk and geographic musings, Ryan unfolded the intricacies and adventures of his not-so-ordinary job. He shared tales that spanned from attending niche industry conventions to the gritty details of hauling everything from grease traps to animal blood. His recounting of navigating environmental regulations, facing unexpected challenges on the road, and his encounters with wildlife painted a vivid picture of the day-to-day life in a seldom-seen side of trucking.
