  • Back It Up | 128: Born to Run
    Nov 15 2024
    In episode 128: Born to Run; the guys sit down in studio with Nevin Sr., a retired truck driver and man of many hats! Nevin had been in and around trucks since he was 5 years old, and his dad would take him along to the butcher's. There Nevin would enjoy the old, beaten-up, truck behind the butcher's shop, pretending to shift gears and drive all over the world. From that point on he had a hankering for the open road. As time went on, he got a job on a farm and then graduated into longer distances. From Dallas to New England, Nevin covered thousands of miles and eventually was able to accomplish a dream of his, and own a farm. All of this didn't come without some unbelievable stories along the way. He's had failed brakes, Cabbage Patch nightmares, and even a wild hurricane experience. Needless to say, Nevin has seen it all, or at least more than most, and we enjoyed the time spent sitting down with him. So sit back, relax and enjoy this incredible conversation with Nevin Sr.
