Listening In Podcast 2006.10.08 - “Listening In with Fran West, Long-Haul Trucker”
Breezewood, PA is the intersection of two interstates, making a small city in what is otherwise the middle of nowhere. I tapped on trucker Fran West’s cab door at 9PM and asked her for an interview, and she waved me off - her chihuahua, Pinky, in hand - but not before inviting me back to talk at 9 the next morning. Sure enough, when I came back, she was up for talking and listening to music - not in her cab, though. So, we found a quiet spot in the trucker’s chapel at the TA truckstop and she shared some of her favorite gospel road songs.
