Recorded four days after the closing night of NTDC 2025, PodWheels Executive Producer Greg Thompson and Transport Topics Senior Reporter Eugene Mulero sit down for an extended look at what took place in Minneapolis during NTDC Week for 2025. As you will hear, Greg is actually still onsite in the Twin Cities at the time of the recording. This episode touches on many topics and a number of award winners from the competition, including going behind the scenes to hear about Eugene’s conversations with the participants in the championship round after they had finished their drives.

You will also hear Greg share his conversation with Dan and Kathy Shamrell a couple of hours after Dan had won the 3 Axle National Championship in his final NTDC run as he moves toward his retirement. It’s a fun episode that shares a number of great stories from our time onsite in Minneapolis and it also sets up some of what we will be doing on the series as we move toward October and plan our content releases through the end of the year.
