Episode Synopsis "All Aboard The Pineapple Express!"
The COVID-19 (Corona) Virus has turned life upside-down and inside-out for just about everybody, and truck drivers are no exception! In this episode, your host Skeeter—while waiting for his truckload of fresh pineapples to be unloaded—offers some thoughts and opinions about how he is dealing with this health emergency situation. He also offers some tips and suggestions on how other professional drivers (and, really, everybody) can help to protect themselves and limit the spread of this and other nasty viruses that are lurking out there. A couple of listener comments about the premiere episode are also included. (A technical note from Skeeter: for this episode, I used a headset microphone that I use for hands-free phone calls on the road, thinking it might eliminate some of the background noise that was being picked up by my iPad’s built-in mic. The resulting audio is not ideal, but I didn’t realize that until the episode was finished. Please bear with the slightly “tinny” sound for this one, and I promise the next installment will sound better!)
