Transport Topics, the trucking and freight industry’s transportation news leader, is adding a new national radio show to the SiriusXM weekly lineup.
Airing on SiriusXM’s Road Dog Trucking channel 146 Saturdays, 1:00 – 3:00 pm ET, Transport Topics Radio will bring listeners the latest industry news from government, business, and logistics. Each week, the show will provide a venue for award-winning Transport Topics journalists and newsmakers to go beyond the headlines and deep into stories that impact the trucking community.
Hosted by veteran broadcaster and Transport Topics Associate News Editor Dan Ronan, the show will also feature other members of Transport Topics senior team including Executive Editor Joe Howard, Managing Editor Lorrie Grant, and Managing Editor for Features Seth Clevenger. Transport Topics’ team of informed, experienced reporters will also make regular appearances. Ronan is a familiar voice on SiriusXM, as the regular back up host on Road Dog Trucking News with Mark Willis and Road Dog Live with KC Phillips.
Part of Transport Topics Radio will be caller driven, as trucking executives, drivers, and others in the business will be encouraged to dial in with questions.
“SiriusXM’s Road Dog Trucking channel 146 is the go-to channel for truck drivers, whether they are long-haul drivers going coast-to-coast or on a regional trip,” said Sue Hensley, Transport Topics Publisher. “This is a great opportunity to partner with the best broadcasters in the business to take our Transport Topics journalism to a different medium and share with SiriusXM listeners some of the high-quality reporting we do every day.”
“This is an exciting time to be covering the trucking, freight and logistics industry, and I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to host Transport Topics Radio on SiriusXM channel 146,” said Ronan. “Transport Topics has a deep bench of experienced journalists who are industry experts. I look forward to speaking with my colleagues and interviewing newsmakers each Saturday as we discuss some of the most important stories in trucking.”
