Whether you're a seasoned off-roader or just starting out, this podcast is a treasure trove of information that will keep you entertained and informed.

    One of the best aspects of The Wheel Every Weekend podcast is the wealth of knowledge that Brittany and Ian bring to each episode. They have clearly spent countless hours exploring different terrains and tackling challenging trails, and they generously share their expertise with their listeners. From tips on choosing the right equipment to safety guidelines for off-roading excursions, they cover everything you need to know in a way that's both informative and accessible. Their real-world opinions help cut through the noise often found in other outdoor adventure podcasts, making them a reliable source of information.

    If there's one downside to The Wheel Every Weekend podcast, it would be the occasional flip-flopping on opinions by Ian throughout episodes. While it can be interesting to hear different perspectives on certain topics or hear both sides of an argument, it can occasionally feel confusing or inconsistent when opinions constantly change throughout an episode. However, this minor drawback doesn't detract significantly from the overall appeal of the podcast.

    In conclusion, The Wheel Every Weekend podcast is a must-listen for anyone with a passion for off-roading, outdoor adventures, or simply seeking a fun and informative podcast.

    I was joined by Braeden of Overland Outfitters to discuss our blind shock test. We tested king, elka, icon, fox, and bilstein shocks back to back on a 3rd gen tacoma. We kept the tire pressure, driving style, and course exactly the same and compared all the different shocks back to back. Long time friend of the shop and current WEW employee, Nick, as well as Brittany, swapped out the shocks for each test so we wouldn't see what we were running. Hear our full thoughts about the tests!

    Almost didnt post this one, but here's me all alone answering questions asked on our stories. I wanna say first off i googled it and i completely got the dempster confused with the other part of the pan american highway which goes into alaska lmfao. But either way we would be stoked to find some stock 4x4 and cruise all around america's hat... which i'm actually a citizen of come to think of it.This is the last solo podcast i'll ever do for sure so you won't have to put up with any others of these... I think most of these questions are explained pretty deeply in other podcasts so if you haven't checked out the others "a decade of trail repairs" has some funny stories in it and there are some good tips in our beginner episode.I wanted to get another podcast up since it seems like everyone blew through the last one pretty quick, If you're interested at all in the different years of toyota trucks and what happened there's a ton of obscure and useless info in our last one too.As always thanks for listening!

    A decade of trail repairs

    Play Episode Listen Later May 3, 2020 90:03


    Unfortunately we have more experience than most with fixing stuff that's blown up on the trail. In this episode we dive into a few of our worse breakdowns, how we fixed them, and the fun adventures that resulted. The important thing here is to go on adventures without being scared of the inevitable, if you are really wheeling you're gonna break some stuff! What's most important is to stay calm, have a good attitude about it, and probably go wheeling with us just in case haha. From welding transmissions, driveshafts, hubs, link mounts etc. to blowing up diffs on the trail, its always a good time with awesome people. If you have any ideas for future episodes let us know!

    I'm sure you're sick of hearing this but we were pretty shwitty by the end here so probably tune us out at like 45 minutes in. Anyways over the past decade or so we have seen some awful fads come and go, overlanding is not something i expected to blow up so large but im also the guy who thought jeep was gonna go bankrupt when they debuted the 4 door sooo... maybe my market predictions aren't accurate. We've become pretty jaded by all the stupid shit happening in the off-road influencer world and i'm hoping off-roading as a sport can survive all the negative stuff going on. Thank you guys for listening to the podcast, this thing is blowing up! We are officially all out of stickers and have had to emergency order a ton more to keep up. Once we are moved into a larger work space we'll be setting up an actual podcast studio and doing guest interviews with the same totally transparent attitude. Seriously every single listen means a lot to us and we really enjoy doing these and seeing the growth from it, it's been great.
