Keep On Moving

This month on the Vocational Podcast ...

If you're looking for an entertaining, frank, funny, no-holds-barred yarn with one of the great industry characters of the modern era, you'll do no better than Robert Pascoe, founder of RPC Logistics. Starting his own metro trucking business in the highly competitive scene that was early 80s Auckland, he had all the key components required to make a go of it – smarts, savvy, a huge work ethic, and several hundred-weight of cheek. Strap in – here we go as he recounts a wonderful adventure in business as only he could. 

We catch-up with our new Euro regular in Sweden, log truck driver Mattias Vikberg. It's been a muddy autumn in the forest, there's a new configuration, thankfully no wild animals, and he's about to join a Scania Roadshow for a couple of weeks demonstrating alternatively propelled heavy trucks. It's all go in Mattias's world!

Lager than life Yogi Kendall – the one-man trucking industry cheer leader – joins us for a catch-up on everything from electronic work diaries and carting farm machines interstate, to making Lamingtons.  

We talk to Wheels at Wanaka 2025 organising team member Annabel Roy for the first of a regular catch-up between now and the big event at Easter next year.
