Matthew Johnson is a born and bred midwesterner, ultra marathon runner, and US Army Veteran.

He joins to show to tell his story of overcoming adversity, and failing his way to success. Matt credits fitness and community for saving his life, and he wants to provide that opportunity to other military veterans by raising money for ValorFit a 501c3 Non Profit that pays for Veterans memberships into CrossFit or group fitness gyms. While running across Texas from El Paso to Galveston, Matt raised $30,000 for ValorFit and became the fastest person to accomplish the feat.

Wanting to do more for ValorFit he has doubled down where he'll run across Texas again, but this time from north to south.

You can find Matt on all social media platforms including instagram @mattjohnson__ and his Youtube channel.

Dylan Admire rejoins the show to give some updates regarding his ongoing legal battle with brokerage goliath WWEX Group which includes GlobalTranz.

Dylan's company Freight Essentials was wrongfully terminated from agency, and his customers were lied to about it. WWEX Group fought tooth and nail to redact a lot of evidence, but thanks to astute journalist Kelly Barner, she did some digging.

"Wading through documents riddled with redactions is frustrating, but one recent filing manages to run 266 pages without a single redaction. There are quite a few examples where past redacted information seems to be revealed in this newer filing."

In this episode Dylan breaks down exactly how much deeper this case goes, and how the agency model in brokerage is actually putting unnecessary costs onto carriers and consumers.
