The expert songwriting of Ky.-based hauler Coby Langham -- and a special truck, on a special day

Today we hand it off again to "Long Haul Paul" Marhoefer to walk us through the moving, sometimes hilarious, writing of trucker-songwriter Coby Langham & the Citizen Band, whose 2019 “Years on the Road” record made plenty waves around his native Kentucky and beyond. Langham drives for likewise Kentucky-headquartered Downey & Sons, a pallet supplier out of Springfield, and he’s a proud father of three.

Also in the podcast, Overdrive Executive Editor Alex Lockie's interview of Arien Ruell around his beautiful 800-horsepower, 1993 vintage Peterbilt 379, with a spectacular 80s-built sleeper and custom stretch that hauls mostly overweight, sometimes oversize, loads out of Pennsylvania to points west and South. Lockie caught up with owner-operator Ruell at the GearJammer show two weeks back in New Hampshire. It's a special truck, for Ruell something of a monument to relationships forged through history in and around and under the machine.

As you'll hear in the episode, it turned out to be a special day for Ruell, too.
