This Edition – Ray and Fiona Reid are one of the most infectiously fun and funny couples you'll meet and proof that incredibly hard work is a nursery for great character.

This is one that will have you laughing, and enjoying the best walk down memory lane.

This month on the KOM Podcast Business Edition, brought to you by UDC.
Murray Lindsay has the latest truck news.
There's a whole new world heading our way, and whether we like it or not, we need to find out more about it so we're ready. Powering On talks to people in the know and those who have already headed off on a new propulsion journey. We aim to make it not too techy, delivering useful information for those who will still be responsible for delivering our new tomorrow.
This month we chat with Mark Irving from Mt Maunganui based Heavy Vehicle Machinery Solutions (HVMS) about what they're gearing up for in the conversion space. It's a classic Kiwi take-the-bull-by-the-horns innovation story.
On Schedule - New Zealand Trucking Media editorial director Dave McCoid speaks with the National Road Carriers (NRC) senior team on the work the association does – the wins, the challenges, and the strategies taken on key issues of the day.
This month, Dave McCoid joins National Road Carriers general manager of policy and advocacy James Smith in a discussion debunking the myth an adversarial relationship exists between the different transport modes at work in our country. The truth is we're in this gargantuan task together, and each mode is hugely dependant on the others to play their critical part.
Cameron Bagrie updates with his regular look at the economy.
Clear the Air is the section where co-host Dave McCoid and his good mate and Environmental champion Lindsay Wood discuss the climate and environmental issues of the day, as they should be discussed – respectfully!
This month - the quirky impacts of rising CO2. You might have just found the ultimate excuse for anything. From New Zealand Trucking magazine Sept 24 Clearing the Air article.

Keep On Moving Podcast Ep 37 Vocational Edition (the Merv Pryce Episode)
Tuesday Sep 10, 2024
Tuesday Sep 10, 2024
It's a truly wonderful Kiwi road transport story and a lesson in so much – understanding your business and the market in which you operate, never over reaching, business as part of the community, and loving what you do. In 1975 Merv Pryce and his mate Malcolm Savage purchased the business of Maurice Vickers Transport in Stratford. It marked the beginning of a five decade adventure that hasn't quite ended yet. We sat down and chatted with Merv and former employee, contractor, and good mate Graeme Forbes. It was an absolute treat on a lovely afternoon in the shadow of Mt Taranaki. Burn all your textbooks, this is a tale of business done well by a true practitioner.
In 2015, Dave Carr organised the inaugural Magpie's Truck Run in the South Island. Tragically, this well respected good bloke passed away shortly after. His good mates, Dave Ching and Cam Lill took up the banner and kept the event going, renaming it the Dave Carr Memorial Truck Run. Built on a spirit of camaraderie, good company, and a love of the industry, this year will see it's ninth running, and it's now a major event on the national trucking event calendar.
You could be with him at the Rover's Return having a beer ... It's always a hell of a laugh catching up with our good mate and Commercial Motor magazine editor Will Shiers to see what's going on in Blighty and the Euro zone.
Our new Euro regular is Swedish log truck driver Mattias Vikberg. Our first podcast chat will introduce Mattias to us all. He's been a reader of New Zealand Trucking magazine since 2018 and listens to the podcasts. Why not make him part of the crew?!
