About

The Strange Trip

Freight doesn't move itself — and neither do the stories. The Strange Trip is a podcast that pulls back the curtain on the transportation and logistics industry through the people who live it every day. Each episode, our hosts Corey Coogan and Chris Arrendond sit down with drivers, brokers, dispatchers, carriers, or logistics pros to hear the stories they tell at truck stops, loading docks, and industry happy hours — the kind that make you say "there's no way that actually happened." Except it did. Every time.

From mystery loads and rogue shipments to blizzards, breakdowns, and the occasional livestock situations, The Strange Trip is equal parts industry deep-dive and campfire storytelling. Whether you're a logistics veteran or just curious about the wild world behind everything you order online, you'll find something here that surprises you.

Conception

The Strange Trip was the brain child of Jared, a Principal Engineer at Logistically. He got the idea after reading a National Geographic article about shipping a live whale across borders. With access to so many great stories and story tellers, he conceived The Strange Trip to share the fun.
