Freight Brokers, Dispatchers, Oh My! With Chris Jolly and TJ Blackwell
In this episode our friend Chris Jolly joins the show to join us in speaking with TJ Blackwell, owner of Blackwell Logistics, a Dispatch Service to discuss a recent article by FreightWaves "Truck Brokers want Congress to Call Out Illegal Dispatching" reporting the TIA's recent request that the FMCSA crack down on dispatch service companies acting like brokerages. We also discuss the recent viral article that discusses how one Texas company is offering Owner Operators $14k a week and a bill that recently passed the Texas House that would limit liability for trucking companies.
