I've been seeing more and more hate in the overlanding YouTube space lately—people leaving nasty comments, complaining about video topics, or acting like creators are just out to sell stuff. So in this episode, I'm speaking honestly about it and how people are entitled to their opinions, but also that there are a lot of factors that most people don't understand or know about.If you don't like a video… skip it. If you don't vibe with a creator… don't watch. It's that simple. I'm sharing some behind-the-scenes insight into what influences the content we make, the balance between passion and sustainability, and how this whole thing really works from the creator's side.Honestly, the goal is to have a really honest and fun conversation, not to argue or belittle people. Let's build a community that supports, encourages, and helps others get outdoors, explore, and learn. If we want overlanding to keep growing in a healthy way, we've got to stop tearing each other down.Thanks for listening—and if you've ever left a kind comment or shared a video, just know it means more than you think.A huge thanks to my partners:Top Oak (amazing roof top tents and awnings for budget prices):  https://topoakoverland.com/?sscid=51k9_mt1ba&Nitto (my Terra Grappler G3 tires are great for midwestern winters, wet weather, and all terrain use):  https://bit.ly/41EJhbQZ1 Off Road (pretty much the spot for all things Nissan):  https://www.z1offroad.comAll Dogs Offroad (amazing Nissan specific suspension options which I run on my truck):  https://www.alldogsoffroad.comICECO Fridges (the best fridges for the money, hands down-Use code ALLTHINGSOVERLANDING for 12% off your order):  https://icecofreezer.com/ALLTHINGSOVERLANDINGMoon Fab Awning (super flexible, non-permanently mounted awnings for all kinds of applications.

Harrison Schoen (@harrisonschoen) made his name living in a Porsche Cayenne and sharing raw, honest stories from the road. But it was a moment on national television—walking away from a $1,000,000 prize on MrBeast's Beast Games—that cemented his ethos: some experiences are worth more than money. In this episode, we explore Harrison's background, why he chooses the harder path, and how storytelling, travel, and self-reliance shape his approach to life. We also discuss his latest project—a Unimog build for a Pan-American journey—and what it means to stay rooted in travel, not trends.

In this episode, we sit down with Spencer Park of BlissMobil to talk about our shared passion for expedition vehicles—what makes them special, what they enable, and why they matter. From design philosophy to real-world functionality, we explore what separates true expedition platforms from ordinary builds. Along the way, we share personal stories, practical advice, and the lessons learned from life on the road. Whether you're dreaming of global travel or just refining your rig, this conversation offers insight from both sides of the experience: living in these vehicles, and building them to go the distance.

Robbie and Kris from Overland of America (www.overlandofamerica.com) come on and talk about the even they started in 2024 and what is coming up in the 2nd Edition coming Sept 12-14 to Jay, OK.This is one of the premiere Overlanding events of the year. Coming early in the fall when the weather starts getting nice.

Ever wonder if it really makes sense to have two vehicles—one for daily driving and one built for overlanding? In this video, I'm sharing why I chose to go that route, what it's been like living with both, and the pros and cons that come with this setup.I break down how having a dedicated overlanding rig has allowed me to build it exactly how I want—without worrying about commuting, parking garages, or fuel economy. At the same time, having a separate daily driver keeps things practical (while giving me a back up if I need to run some errands while the "rig" is down for mods or maintenance).If you're torn between building an all-in-one rig or splitting the duties between two vehicles, this video is for you. Let's talk real-world tradeoffs, what it's costing me, and whether I'd make the same decision again.Let me know what setup you run in the comments—I'd love to hear how others are solving this!A huge thanks to my partners:Top Oak (amazing roof top tents and awnings for budget prices):  https://topoakoverland.com/?sscid=51k9_mt1ba&Nitto (my Terra Grappler G3 tires are great for midwestern winters, wet weather, and all terrain use):  https://bit.ly/41EJhbQZ1 Off Road (pretty much the spot for all things Nissan):  https://www.z1offroad.comAll Dogs Offroad (amazing Nissan specific suspension options which I run on my truck):  https://www.alldogsoffroad.comICECO Fridges (the best fridges for the money, hands down-Use code ALLTHINGSOVERLANDING for 12% off your order):  https://icecofreezer.com/ALLTHINGSOVERLANDINGMoon Fab Awning (super flexible, non-permanently mounted awnings for all kinds of applications.

Anyone can bolt parts to a truck—but building a factory overlander is something else entirely. In this episode, recorded live at Overland Expo, we sit down with Dave Harriton, founder of AEV (American Expedition Vehicles), to explore what it actually takes to engineer an OEM-validated overland vehicle. From Jeep and Ram to full production lines at GM, Dave shares what goes into building expedition-ready platforms that roll straight off the assembly line—vehicles that have to meet the same durability, safety, and emissions standards as any other factory model. It's a rare look into the world where overlanding meets automotive engineering at scale—and why most aftermarket builds aren't playing the same game.

It's easy to get caught up in the business of overlanding and forget to actually travel. But Basil Lynch never stopped. In this episode, we sit down with the founder of Basil's Garage—an overland outfitter based in San Diego—to talk about why staying on the road matters more than ever. From international travel to local weekend getaways, Basil's real-world experience continues to shape how he builds vehicles, advises clients, and runs his shop. We dig into his background, his favorite travel moments, and why firsthand experience is still the best way to know what gear works—and what doesn't. This is a reminder that in an industry built on adventure, the best advice still comes from those who live it.

In this episode of the Overland Bonfire Podcast, we reconnect with a longtime friend of the Blue Ridge crew—someone you've probably seen in past trail tech videos and rig walkarounds. While he's spent over a decade in the overland scene, this conversation is less about his latest build and more about where that journey has taken him next.Two years ago to the day, he made the call to shut down his trail tech brand. Now, he's launched Evolution Woodworks, a business that brings his background in craftsmanship and design into a new chapter. We dig into what it took to make that leap, and some of the interesting things he is doing in this new chapter.We also swap stories from past overlanding trips, reflect on the value of doing things by hand, and talk about finding balance between utility and beauty in the things we build.If you're into craftsmanship, small business journeys, and gear that tells a story, this one's for you.Check out Evolution Woodworks → https://www.evowoodworks.com/

Made in the West: American Innovation in OverlandingWhat does overland innovation look like when it's born in a Montana machine shop instead of an international trade show? In this episode, we sit down with Matt Linder, CEO of Truckhouse, and Graeme MacPherson of Go Fast Campers—two leaders shaping the future of American-made expedition vehicles. From composite monocoques to ultra-light pop-up campers, both are proving that thoughtful design and domestic manufacturing can still punch above their weight. This conversation explores the philosophy behind their products, the value of restraint in design, and why American ingenuity still matters in a space often dominated by imported gear.

Before overlanding was a hashtag, it was a mindset—and Graeme Jackson was one of the people who helped define it in the U.S. In this episode, we sit down with Graeme to trace the origins of overlanding in North America, from the founding days of Overland Journal to the first Overland Expo. With decades of international experience, including a full traverse of Africa in the early 2000s, Graeme brings a unique blend of practical insight and historical context. This conversation is a window into where we've come from—and what we might need to remember as the industry moves forward.

Join us for an extraordinary conversation with Scott Brady, a true titan of the adventure world. The founder of the iconic Overland Journal and Expedition Portal, and now Executive Publisher at The Overland Collective, Scott has literally driven a single 4WD vehicle across all seven continents – a world first. He also led the first American team to traverse Antarctica by 4WD and pioneered a route across the long-axis of Greenland by 4WD. If that wasn't enough, he's the first and only American to conquer the grueling Outback Challenge.In this episode, Scott shares breathtaking stories from his unparalleled global expeditions, the lessons learned from pushing the limits of vehicle-based exploration, and insights into the ever-evolving world of overlanding. We'll also dive into his newly released book, "Overlanding 101: A Field Guide to Vehicle-Based Adventure Travel," getting his expert advice for both seasoned explorers and those just starting their journey. Don't miss this incredible opportunity to learn from a legend who has truly seen, and driven, it all!

I've made a lot of modifications to my overlanding rigs over the years—but not all of them were good ideas. In this episode, I'm taking a hard look at how certain upgrades can actually hurt your setup instead of helping it. From suspension changes that wreck ride quality to accessories that add unnecessary weight or complexity, I break down the mods that seemed smart at the time but turned out to be more trouble than they're worth.If you're building your rig or thinking about your next upgrade, watch this first. Let's talk about what to avoid, what to rethink, and how to make sure your build actually improves your adventures instead of holding you back.Drop your biggest mod regret or lesson learned in the comments!A huge thanks to my partners:Top Oak (amazing roof top tents and awnings for budget prices):  https://topoakoverland.com/?sscid=51k9_mt1ba&Nitto (my Terra Grappler G3 tires are great for midwestern winters, wet weather, and all terrain use):  https://bit.ly/41EJhbQICECO Fridges (the best fridges for the money, hands down-Use code ALLTHINGSOVERLANDING for 12% off your order):  https://icecofreezer.com/ALLTHINGSOVERLANDINGMoon Fab Awning (super flexible, non-permanently mounted awnings for all kinds of applications.

Scott Brady has spent decades traveling the world by vehicle. Now, he's distilled much of that experience into a compact, accessible, and deeply thoughtful reference guide: Overlanding 101. It's not just a how-to—it's a why-to. And it's probably the best book on overland travel you'll find, but then again, Scott taught me most of what's in it.In this episode, we revisit foundational lessons with fresh perspective, using the book as a framework for a bigger conversation: what we've learned, what's changed, and what still matters most.

David Sauers is the co-founder and CEO of Royal Restrooms, a high-end portable restroom company with 50 offices across the U.S. He's not just a bathroom boss – he's an overland adventurer, innovator, and proud creator of “the number one brand in the number two business.”In this episode, we dive into how David transformed an often-ignored necessity – going to the loo – into a full-blown luxury brand and nationwide franchise. From weddings to disaster relief, from Kruger Park inspiration to modular bar carts, David shows how bold thinking, strategic marketing, and relentless innovation can turn even the “least sexy” industry into a multi-million dollar business.Why listen? Because this episode is a masterclass in niche branding, asset-light growth through franchising, and how to disrupt outdated customer experiences – no matter what space you're in.

In this episode of the Overland Journal podcast, host Matt Scott converses with Mike Pfeiffer from Last Line of Defense about practical readiness and overlanding. Mike shares insights from his life as an 'army brat,' his experiences traveling and living in various states, and his journey into off-roading and overlanding. The conversation highlights the importance of bridging everyday capability with long-term preparedness, emphasizing practical aspects like everyday carry, vehicle readiness, and the balance between being prepared and avoiding paranoia. Mike also discusses his automotive projects, including his notable modified Tacoma and future plans for a Ford F450.

This week we we're calling out you gatekeepers! No, not the good kind like the Sean at Exotics, but those people who say you can't do something without a specific type of mod. Did you really need those Baja Designs lights? Is that Warn Platinum 12k winch necessary? How about the $2,500 roof top tent you use once a year? Yes, there is a difference in all that gear, but eventually you have to admit you don't need the laser lighting as much as you want it to go down that well groomed gravel road. On top of that, chances are, you probably made your vehicle worse and don't want to admit it. We know, we've done it, and we are going to talk about it! Don't let the car gatekeepers get you down!
