On episode 772 of WHAT THE TRUCK?!? Dooner is talking to NASA’s Logan Kennedy about the logistics of sending humans back to the moon. We’ll find out how they’re preparing for the Artemis missions, how the landers they’re using work, and what we hope to gain from it back here on Earth. We’ll also let some kids ask NASA. 

Dooner’s former boss and mentor at FedEx Trade Networks, Tamara Collyer, takes us to school with some Duty Drawback 101. We’ll find out how shippers are getting 99% of their tariffs back.

Part 2 of our new documentary ‘Rebuilding the Gateway to America’ looks at how the ports are handling volume, labor, and sustainability for the drayage community. 

Plus, FedEx’s Panda Express; DHL’s $9 million duct tape dress; more.
