Ep 94: Shanahan's Livestock Transport _ Part A
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In Part A, I sit down with a mate of mine, Dom Shanahan, to hear the story behind the man and the miles.
Dom started with just one truck, and today runs a major livestock transport operation with 35 B-doubles on the road. He takes us through his early days, the risks, the setbacks, and the decisions that shaped his journey from the ground up.
It’s a grounded, honest conversation about building a company, earning your stripes, and what it really takes to keep wheels turning in Australia’s livestock transport game—told with Dom’s trademark humour and straight talk.
