In today's podcast, I review the weBoost Drive 4G-X OTR cell signal booster from Wilson Electronics.

Check out my new ebook/audiobook called Trucking Life and get some free samples of both the audio and text versions.

@Holden657 was kind enough to leave reviews of Trucking Life on both Amazon and the iBooks Store.

35-year driver Daniel S. Bridger reviewed Trucking Life on his Trucking Blog.

Todd Dills from OverdriveOnline.com also wrote an excellent review of Trucking Life.

Youssef from KnowTrucking.com wrote in to tell us about their free practice CDL tests.

Billy from Trutrux told us about his new website that sells truck, ATV, boat, camping, outdoor gear & cool stuff.

I mention shows I've been watching, including Arrow, Flash, Agents of Shield, and Downton Abbey, which is sort of a spin-off of the movie, Gosford Park.

Non-trucker Jeremy wrote in to ask about exercise as a trucker. I put him off so I could do a whole podcast about it. I mentioned my workout video calledTD81: How To Do A Full-Body Workout Inside The Cab Of A Semi.

John of The John And Jade Show did an excellent video review of the weBoost Drive 4G-X OTR, including an installation guide and lots of geeky signal strength testing. Nerds UNITE!

Intermission music by The Offspring

George sent another audio clip, but I'm not going to play it because I'm going to do a whole podcast about it later on. Sorry George!

Steve from TommyJohn.com listened to TD93: The Driver's Seat Phenomenon and wrote in to talk about a sensitive subject… underwear!

Long Duck writes in to talk about his Sonar elogs, lane preference, and he gloats a bit because he's figured out who I work for. In the meantime, I wonder why anyone even cares.

David listened to TD56: Funkin' Trucking' and believes that driver funk is directly related to driver fatigue. He also gives us a tip on removing ice from your wipers while driving. This prompts me to mention listener Greg's recommendation of the Slushbuster back in TD110: Jabbering With Jared. He also admits to being a solar driver which I discussed way back in TD53:Lunar Driving As A Trucker. Along the way, David mentions the 48 Days Podcast from Dan Miller.

Bryce read TD100: What Makes The Evil Overlord Evil? and tells a funny story about his own Evil Overlord.
