TRUCKING INDUSTRY PODCASTS PAGE 2 RADIO DRAMA PODCASTS PAGE 4 SPORTS PODCASTS PAGE 5 COMEDY PODCASTS PAGE 6 BEST PODCASTS FOR TRUCK DRIVERS Professional truck drivers spend hours on the roads and away from home. Fortunately, technology has made advancements that help keep drivers entertained. Podcasts are a completely free source of audio entertainment that you can download and stream using apps on your smartphone. What’s really appealing about podcasts is their wide appeal and availability in various topics. For example, you can get the latest information and news about the trucking industry to keep you up-to-speed on your career. If you need a break from work-related events, some podcasts can address the latest in sports news, provide humor from stand-up comics, and appeal to the thrill-seek- er through real-life crimes. The more you’re able to keep yourself entertained, the easier it will be to get your deliver- ies completed on time. We’ve put together some of the best podcasts to available on the internet. BEST PODCASTS FOR TRUCK DRIVERS 1 TRUCKING INDUSTRY PODCASTS Sometimes staying up-to-date on the latest news and information about the trucking industry is helpful. These podcasts give great tips and keep truckers, and their dispatchers informed about the latest news and trends. There are also a few that provide an honest look at trucking life for anyone who wants to become a truck driver. Trucker Dump This podcast is a great all-rounder and perfect for those who are wanting to learn just about everything there is to know about the trucking industry. Topics include • Drivers safety • Driver etiquette • Apps and services • Trucking Regulations [Listen Now] The podcast features both monologues and interviews, and the au- thor tries to improve on the content by adding in stories and humor when it fits! It should be noted that the author is also a truck driver. Which means it does not cover on how to become an owner/oper- ator of your own truck. Some of the podcasts cover his blog posts such as Advice for New Truckers and Winter Truck Driving Tips. BEST PODCASTS FOR TRUCK DRIVERS 2 America’s Truckin Network Listening to this podcast will require you to download the iHeart Radio app, but we promise it’s worth it in the end. America’s Tuckin Network covers a broad range of topics. But, the theme is always on truckers themselves and how they can improve their experience. If you listen for no other reason than the stories, it will be worth it. A lot of coverage is dedicated to the community that surrounds the trucking industry. You can listen to stories about avoiding danger- ous weather conditions, upgrades being made to the industry, and humorous stories from your fellow drivers. [Listen Now] Trucking Podcast Buck Ballard hosts the Trucking Podcast and co-hosted by his son Don. It goes a little further than just tips to improve your experi- ence and performance. Most of the content covered is to keep you entertained. Both host and co-host are truckers and formulate their content around things that they would want to listen to while driv- ing. Some topics include anything to do with automotive diving into pickup trucks, rat-rods, RVs, as well as semi trucks. They do their best to keep the information user-friendly which means you won’t be hearing about absurdly priced cars and parts on this podcast. [Listen Now] BEST PODCASTS FOR TRUCK DRIVERS 3 RADIO DRAMA PODCASTS Sometimes a break is needed from the business of trucking. While jobs might be dedicated to delivering loads, there is a lot of time that could be used for entertainment. The long days and nights can begin to wear on you, but these radio drama podcasts are sure to deliver on suspense both real and fictional to keep you occupied. Serial Serial has been around for a while and in that time built up a cult following. The first season took the nation by storm with its story about Adnan, a high schooler convicted for the murder of his class- mate. Each season of Serial investigates real stories taking place in America and is full of twists and turns. You’re sure to be captivated by the narrative and have a ton of questions about “who do it?” when it’s over. The newest season explores what happens with the right evidence points prosecutors towards the wrong person. It takes a look at what happens in the average American courthouse and the cases that come through their door. [Listen Now] Casefile Like Serial, Casefile takes a closer look at true crimes that have tak- en part in Australia analyzing where evidence and lawyers could’ve convicted the wrong person. The podcast is, and each episode completes one story, unlike Serial where they use the entire season to explore one theme. The makers behind the podcast use audio enhancements to achieve the suspenseful ambiance. Each episode can last from 20 minutes to an hour and a half and looks at the murder or abduction through the criminal’s trial and sometimes discussing potential theories if the perpetrator was never caught. If you want bite-sized information, Casefile is perfect for you. [Listen Now] BEST PODCASTS FOR TRUCK DRIVERS 4 SPORTS PODCASTS Sometimes tuning into the game isn’t enough. Sports podcasts dive a little deeper in each game and provide insider information on players, coach- es, and teams. There are a few strong sports podcasts that offer news and opinions on current rankings and the results of the most recent game. Golic and Wingo Formerly known and Mike and Mike this podcast is hosted by long- time friends Mike Greenberg and Mike Golic. They are ESPN Radio veterans dedicated to breaking down American sports for their listeners. Not just focused on football the guys also take a look at other sports like UFC, MMA, and MLB. Because of the hosts’ legacy, they often score interviews with key players, coaches, and analysts to give you predictions on playoffs and an update on what each team needs to do to win. The guys have at least four hours dedicat- ed to providing their listeners with sports information which means you’ll have plenty of content to keep you occupied. [Listen Now] Know Them from Adam If you’re a dedicated NFL fan, this podcast is for you. Hosted by Adam Schefter a prolific sports writer and television analyst, he graduated from the University of Michigan before starting his career at the NFL Network. Know Them from Adam is more of a round- up of information which means you get one episode a week rather than hours of comment. But, that’s ok because his podcast with ESPN has him talking to some of the biggest names in the NFL. Each week he takes a closer look at how the teams tick as well as make predictions about where some of the teams will go. If you want more interviews with start players and coaches, this is the perfect podcast. [Listen Now] BEST PODCASTS FOR TRUCK DRIVERS 5 COMEDY PODCASTS Driving for hours can become monotonous. You can add vigor back into your day with these comedy podcasts. Each one is just a little absurd but very re- latable making it enjoyable. They are created for the pure pleasure of bringing their audience laugher and mixing in a little bit of cultural reference. Lovett or Leave It Legendary comedian Jon Lovett hosts this podcast. Each Friday Jon is joined by a slew of special guests such as comedians, jour- nalists, actors, and his many famous friends. The topic of discus- sion? Whatever is on their minds. They will take on the latest in the news and take a look at the latest in the political climate. But, don’t worry. This isn’t a podcast about politics. Instead it’s a meeting of creative minds. Fan of The Office? Then you’ll be excited to know that head writer Lee Eisenberg is part of the Lovett or Leave It, team. The content is broken down in the form of quizzes, dramatic readings, discussions, bad impressions, rants, and games. Although episodes only come out once a week, there is more than enough to [Listen Now] keep you entertained. Comedy Bang Bang: The Podcast This podcast is an amalgamation of some of the best comedians on the circuit. Comedy Bang Bang is hosted by Scott Aukerman and walks between conversation and character work. Each episode starts with an interview which seems innocent enough. However, there is an open door policy that means anyone can stop by at any time to throw in their perspective, compete in games, and toss in their oddball sense of humor. Comedy Improv is designed to throw the interviews into a new and hilarious direction. This podcast is one of the most popular and has hundreds of episodes on backlog for you to keep yourself entertained.

    Past, Present and Future

    Life-stowing from a Digital Media Perspective: Past, Present and Future Alberto Frigo SÖDERTÖRN DOCTORAL DISSERTATIONS Life-stowing from a Digital Media Perspective: Past, Present and Future Alberto Frigo Subject: Media and Communication Studies Research Area: Critical and Cultural Theory School: Culture and Education Södertörn University Södertörns högskola (Södertörn University) The Library SE-141 89 Huddinge www.sh.se/publications © Alberto Frigo Cover image: Alberto Frigo Cover layout: Jonathan Robson Graphic form: Per Lindblom & Jonathan Robson Printed by Elanders, Stockholm 2017 Södertörn Doctoral Dissertations 139 ISSN 1652–7399 ISBN 978-91-88663-00-9 (print) ISBN 978-91-88663-01-6 (digital) Abstract While both public opinion and scholars around the world are currently pointing out the danger of increasingly popular life-logging devices, this book articulates this debate by distinguishing between automatic and manual life-logging approaches. Since new definitions of life-logging have excluded the latter approach and have been mainly focused on effortless life-logging technologies such as Google Glass and Quantified Self applications in general, the second part of this thesis theoretically frames life-stowing. Through extensive etymological research, I have defined life-stowing as a manual and effortful practice conducted by life-stowers, individuals who devote their life to sampling reality in predefined frameworks. As part of this book, an historical over- view introduces life-stowers and distinguishes between Apollonian and Dionysian varieties of these practitioners. Lastly, in order to understand the future reception of life-stowing, particularly in relation to digital media, I have disclosed my ongoing life- stowing project to a small audience.
