Optimus Prime, Bloomberg and the Spartan way – WTT

Optimus Is Here | Dooner

On today’s episode of WHAT THE TRUCK?!? Dooner is talking to a man who has Optimus Prime on a mission to help kids. Joe Fiduccia, the owner of Optimus is Here, built the world’s first and only screen-accurate replica of “Transformers: Age of Extinction”-era Optimus Prime. 

“Optimus has personally touched countless families who have faced hardships in life, those who needed some encouragement and those who just love anything related to the ‘Transformers’ franchise.” — Optimus is Here

Bloomberg’s Lee Klaskow joins the show to talk about SVB, the banking crisis and what it means for freight.

Spartan 5S Services CEO Carlos M. Llanes Jr. and CCO Tim Perkins stop by the studio to talk about leadership philosophy, M&A and the quest to become a household name.


Craig Leinauer, inland marine corporate claims manager at Travelers, talks about freight fires, claims, inflation losses and the most popular insurance claims. 

Plus, how do you say “Maersk”; a unique street sweeping solution; rate the strap work; and more.
