Top 10 Podcasts to Listen to on Long Haul Drives

Whether you’re setting off on a one-off road trip or you’re a long haul lorry driver just going about your daily business, you could well be looking for a new podcast to sink your teeth into. 

There’s nothing like getting really engrossed in a great podcast while you’re out on the road, which is why we’ve put together a list of the top ten podcasts for long haul drives, so you don’t need to do any research or scrolling before your next trip.

Truck & Driver – The podcast for lorry drivers

If you’re a long haul lorry driver who wants to feel a bit of community spirit, we recommend the Truck & Driver Podcast. It’s the podcast version of the UK’s biggest and best selling truck magazine, all about trucks, driving and life on the road.

Trucking After Hours

Hungry for another trucking podcast? Trucking After Hours covers trucking, business, cars and other fun topics on this leisurely podcast hosted by father-son duo Buck and Don Ballard.

Crime Junkie Podcast

Are you the sort of person who constantly scrolls through Netflix looking for the next best true crime documentary? If so, the Crime Junkie Podcast is for you. 

Ear Hustle

If you’re looking for a perspective shift while you’re out on a late night drive, then why not try out Ear Hustle? It’s the only podcast ever to be recorded inside a prison, and follows the everyday stories of inmates currently residing in San Quentin State Prison. Give it a try!

Jocko Podcast

Looking for inspiration? Guidance? Motivation? Look no further than the Jocko Podcast hosted by retired Navy SEAL Jocko Willink. He talks about discipline and leadership both in and out of war, and is guaranteed to give you some thrills while you’re out on the road!

Armchair Expert

This podcast is all about what it means to be human, and the huge, confusing mess that comes with trying to unpack this question. Whether you fancy yourself as a bit of a philosopher or just want to try something different, we can definitely recommend this podcast.

Serial

If all you’re after is a good old-fashioned story, then you might want to check out Serial. The podcast works in a seasonal format and covers a different fictional story each season. You’ll be drawn in by the first episode, so just be aware before you decide to commit to it!

Steal the Stars

Keen for another story? Check out Steal the Stars, written by Mac Rogers. The story follows the lives of two government officials who have been tasked with covering up the presence of a crashed UFO. It’s a great plot that keeps ticking over, so definitely give it a go if you like a bit of sci-fi mystery!

The Fighter & The Kid

If you are a fan of boxing or the UFC, we would recommend you try The Fighter & The Kid. It’s run weekly by heavyweight Brendan Schaub and comedian Bryan Callen, and covers all sorts of topics from what’s going on in the UFC all the way through to music and fashion. If you like fighting and tangential ramblings, this is sure to be a hit.

Big Rig Banter

Let’s round things off with one more trucking podcast. Big Rig Banter is a nice mix of educational and entertaining content, where top journalists carry out exclusive interviews that aim to get to the core of what the trucking industry is all about. It’s perfect to stick on for a long drive, so give it a try!
