Malcolm Harris (0:33)

Welcome to a Friday edition of What The Truck? I'm your host, Malcolm Harris. I'm joined with my man, Mr. Michael Vincent. Mike, this is a bit different for your boy, man, but I'm happy to be here. What's up, man?

Michael Vincent (0:49)

What's up, dog? Look at you, baby. There's more books on that shelf than you ever read in your whole life.

Malcolm Harris (0:55)

Ever in my life. This is my dad's office, for those that don't know, because I promise you, I am for one, not a 49ers fan. He's got a Falcons helmet right there for me. And then he's got a 49ers helmet for him up there. And yeah.

Greg Berry (1:10)

That's a lot of books.

Michael Vincent (1:11)

I was actually there. I was actually there in the, what was it? They played in the NFC championship. Is that right?

Malcolm Harris (1:19)

Yes, that is correct.

Michael Vincent (1:21)

Yeah. Yeah, I was there. That's correct.

Yeah. Me and Bose actually asked Bose.

Malcolm Harris (1:27)

I like the haircut.

Stefan Heck (1:28)

Look at that.

Michael Vincent (1:30)

There you go, baby.

Malcolm Harris (1:31)

Look at, it's looking like Slim Shady.

Michael Vincent (1:35)

Slim Shady.

Hello. My name is, my name is Slim Shady. What's your dog?

Malcolm Harris (1:44)

Look at you.

Michael Vincent (1:44)

You got some, you got some five o'clock shadow at ten o'clock in the morning.

Malcolm Harris (1:49)

I do. Yeah.

That's hard to grow the beard back. I think it was cool for what it gave.

Michael Vincent (1:55)

I think, I think you'll succeed. I think you'll succeed.

What's my buddy said that I look like?

Malcolm Harris (2:02)

You like it? You like that?

Michael Vincent (2:04)

Yeah. Yeah. I dig the soul pass. Soul pass, I can't pull it off, but they're cool. I got a buddy who's got one and I, I'm jealous because they're cool. I think they're cool. I can't pull it off though. I look like a dork.

Malcolm Harris (2:14)

No, I think you can pull up anything. You are cool by the way.

Michael Vincent (2:19)

Mr.Style.

Malcolm Harris (2:23)

Where you at?

Michael Vincent (2:23)

ATL? You in the ATL? Is that where you at?

Malcolm Harris (2:26)

I'm in Florida. I'm in Sarasota, Florida.

Michael Vincent (2:28)

Oh, Florida. Sarasota.

Zach Greenberger (2:30)

Yeah, I'm in Florida.

Malcolm Harris (2:31)

Sarasota.

Michael Vincent (2:32)

Man, I knew you were from the hood, bro.

Malcolm Harris (2:40)

You're crazy.

Michael Vincent (2:42)

Everybody knows Sarasota is Florida's hood.

Malcolm Harris (2:50)

I'm not doing this with you today. I'm not doing this with you today.

Michael Vincent (2:53)

You're not. Okay.

Malcolm Harris (2:55)

Hooded Jason. I'll go there. Yeah, we'll say that. We'll say that.

Let's talk. So every single show after the show ends, we normally be in here, we have a phone call. We have a phone call. We debrief. It's my favorite thing. Well, we're not gonna have one today because my phone literally stopped working yesterday. It would not turn on.

Michael Vincent (3:19)

I think it's probably some nefarious activity going on there, bro.

Malcolm Harris (3:24)

Either that or Isaiah Buchanan is trying to hack me. He's jealous of my abilities and he wants to beat me. It's one of those two.

Michael Vincent (3:31)

Well, we've had some private conversations Izzy and I have. So, it's possible.

I'm kind of like his mentor, you know?

Malcolm Harris (3:42)

I'm so jealous. He has the jawline. He's a good looking brother, man. You know, I want to be Izzy when I grow up, you know?

Michael Vincent (3:50)

He is good looking, but you're the best smelling brother I know. I'll tell you that.

Malcolm Harris (3:53)

Oh my gosh. I appreciate it. It's some good looking brothers that we're going to have on today's show.

Let's look at On Deck and see who we got coming up. All right. You guys have seen two of these guests before, but for those that don't know, we have Dr. Stefan Heck. He is going to be in the building as well as Zach Greenberger. All right. So, these fellows are here to talk about Empiric Earth, the new company born bringing Nexar and Arnaldo together. We're getting into over 10 billion miles of real world driving data while the near misses that never become crashes matter more than the actual crashes themselves, and how fleets are seeing collision losses drop as much as 67 percent using this type of data. Then, Greg Barry, the Builder Product Manager at Numeral, is going to break down tax pyramiding. All right. So, tariffs are grabbing the headlines, as we talked about on Wednesday. But he's going to jump in a little more and explain the hidden sales tax problem behind, as well as building underneath the US-Canada trade tensions, and how some buy chain moves are looking smarter on paper by quietly, again, showing what's being eaten up by tax exposure that nobody saw coming. This is going to be an episode that is going to have a lot of information coming to you. Quick, fast, and in a hurry between Greg, Zach, and Stefan, this is going to be off the chain. Greg, are you ready to go, brother?
