On this episode, we go the George Washington National Forest, and not have lunch where we intended! I give my first impression reviews on the Moon Lence camping chairs, and our new NatureNest Polaris Plus RTT. I have some updates about the Dirt Road Tourist website, and talk about the upcoming Sweep Up The Southeast event, organized by the Venture Unknown Foundation. Check out the link below.

In this episode, I talk about our Veterans' Day weekend visit to Uwharrie. I also drop some Christmas gift ideas for the overlander on your list. If you're one of my family who follows the podcast, now you don't have to ask...

Been a while, but I'm back behind the mic! In this episode I talk about how the purchase of a drawer system cascaded into changing every piece of major gear on the rig, and things to consider before you make a single-item upgrade on yours.

On this episode, I talk with author, actor/producer & adventurer, Wells Jones. He is a veteran of the Navy Antarctic Pararescue service, a dual-sport overland traveler, and has even trekked across the deserts of Saudi Arabia on a camel. Listen in as we talk about everything from overlanding to skydiving to running with the bulls in Pamplona. A number of links are mentioned during our conversation, and you will find them below:

Have finally gotten the Overland Vehicle Systems Expedition Cap mounted onto the Tacoma, and I talk about how the install went, as well as my first impressions about the quality of the bed cap. If you've been looking for an un-sponsored, unbiased review of the OVS Expedition Cap, tune in; you'll find it here. I also talk more about the Southeast Backcountry Discovery Route, which I want to make one of the first places we test-bed all this new stuff.

Yeah, I took a bit of a break there. There has been a lot going on around home, lately. There's a lot going on with the rig, this spring too, and I talk about that on this episode. The Southeast Overland Camping Event is in the books, and it was a great time! Listen in to where the podcast is headed, and what our rig, Bonnie has in store!

When you're out on an overlanding trip, you need to be prepared for anything that Mother Nature might throw your way. Be sure you've packed the right clothing for your trip, or it could be a miserable time out there, or even dangerous. I'll talk about the items you need to have with you, whether your trip takes you out in the Summer, Winter, Fall or Spring. With some simple strategies on what to pack, you'll be comfy all year round.

This week, I talk about 5 easy DIY projects that will improve life for any overlander. From a convenient way to hang your paper towels, to a pillow that feels just like the one you have at home, but closes down in the RTT, you don't want to miss this one!
