Summary

In Episode 31: The Breakroom, we have another family sit-down, but with a new guest! We welcome Tony's uncle and Brian's brother, Cameron, aka “Uncle Pally.” Uncle Pally has been a driver for different industries for many years. Previously, he drove, transported, and delivered money for Dunbar Armored, and tells us what it was like driving around a bank on wheels. We also discuss driving dump trucks, automated trucks getting hacked by terrorists, and general industry talk. Finally Uncle Pally wraps up the show by recounting how as kids, he and Brian witnessed three UFOs in the sky!
