To commemorate its 85th anniversary, Dart Transit Company has announced a 15-part documentary podcast series that chronicles the company’s history through interviews with industry and company leaders.
Dart’s Driving Through History podcast series, produced in collaboration with PodWheels Network, features a collection of interviews that examine the evolution of the company through the past 85 years, all within a changing trucking industry.
The series includes nearly five total hours of recorded material, and the interviews have been organized into 15 podcast segments following themes or topics. Series listeners will have the opportunity to hear perspectives on the company’s history and Dart’s impact on the trucking industry. Featured guests include Dart Chairman Don Oren, American Trucking Associations President and CEO Chris Spear, and Minnesota Trucking Association President John Hausladen. The series also spotlights current members of the Dart management team as well as some of Dart’s retired executives.
Launched by Don Oren’s father, Earl, in 1934 with a single truck and trailer, Dart has been continuously owned by the Oren family for 85 years. As the series details, the Oren family continues to play an active daily role in the business. Through their shared stories and recollections, listeners to Driving Through History will hear the Oren family look back at the company’s early years, its growth, and its people while also looking forward to what’s ahead for Dart.
Driving Through History is available through the PodWheels Network on a dedicated web page, PodWheelsNetwork.com/85years.
