OCCUPATION(S): Truck stop manager
ABOUT THE SHOW: Located off a stretch of Interstate 70 that lies between St. Louis and Kansas City is the sprawling roadside complex called the Midway Auto Truck Complex. The show follows manager Joe Bechtold and his staff as they juggle one challenge after another and keep their dozen roadside businesses — including a fireworks stand, tattoo parlor, and haunted house — running smoothly and profitably.
TYPICAL MOMENT: A visit by a hilariously persistent traveling salesman, who wants to demonstrate his new technology to wash bathrooms. Let’s just say Joe is somewhat less than impressed.
