TALES FROM THE ROAD

Cracked , Bent or Broken

DescriptionI’m Nick Anthony—a long-haul trucker with a 20-year background in broadcasting. From the fast pace of sports coverage to breaking newsrooms, media has always been my playground. But when the pandemic hit, I felt the pull to do something different—something hands-on, essential. Within a month, I was in the driver’s seat of an 18-wheeler, hauling freight and helping keep the country moving. As I crisscrossed highways and state lines, I started documenting my runs, capturing the pulse of America from the road. But something still felt…missing. I’d listen to the news, talk back to the radio, weigh in on the headlines—but the conversations were one-sided. What I really missed was the mic. Radio has been my passion since I was 13. It’s more than a job—it’s home. So now, I’m merging both worlds: bringing you trucking news and honest opinions from someone who’s lived both the newsroom and the open road. Welcome to the ride.
