Following the U.S. Supreme Court's landmark decision in Montgomery v. Caribe, freight brokers face new liability risks for carrier selection, potentially ending the era of hiding behind FAAAA preemption when negligent vetting leads to accidents.

In this episode, we sit down with Ryan Joyce, CEO of GenLogs and former CIA operations officer who now applies intelligence-driven analytics, roadside sensors, and AI to verify real carriers and combat fraud in the trucking industry.

We break down what the ruling really means for brokers, shippers, and insurers, how 'chameleon carriers' and weak vetting expose the supply chain, and how GenLogs' ground-truth platform is helping the industry adapt with proactive risk signals and better due diligence.
