You can see all that equipment in person, pick it up there, and head straight out for an adventure right from their shop.

Of course, all the dates mentioned at the end of the interview are all void because Covid 19 has canceled everything in the world. Or at least forced everything to be rescheduled.

I have spent the last few weeks listening to your entire podcast library while at work. I dig it! Great content, real-world product reviews, entertaining format, and great stories and guests. Thanks for all the efforts to bring people a podcast worth paying attention to.
I am hoping you could give me the details on which Baofeng radio that you have mentioned on the podcast. I am looking on Amazon right now and see a couple in that $24 to $30 range and wanted to make sure I purchase the correct one you had mentioned that they are stopping sales of. Is it the UV-5R?
If you could tell me the actual one that would be great. I’ll be sure to order through the podcast Amazon link and score a couple of decals for the truck.
Thanks! I look forward to listening to future casts…
We have a 2004 F-250 6.0.(ya I know, but it’s been very reliable so far) It’s mostly stock for now but building a list to make this thing a beast of an off-road/survival vehicle.
We enjoy camping and four wheeling, nothing extreme, just getting off the pavement and finding some nice trials.
I say survival vehicle because we were part of the Camp fire in Paradise Ca and lost almost everything, including our daughter who we got out with just a few moments to spare. After that experience, My wife and I have decided we need a vehicle that can fit our whole family, pets and enough gear to live for at least a few days away from the rest of the world and that can get through a barrier or smaller vehicle if the situation calls for it.
Our daughter was sleeping and we showed and had about 10 minutes to get her woke up, grab the dogs and a handful of clothes and leave as the house itself caught fire, if we had got caught up with a roadblock or abandoned vehicle we very well might have lost her…thats why we want a beast!
Thanks again for an entertaining and educational podcast! I’ll be hitting you up for the codes after I receive these radios!

Hello Dan and company,
I recently started listening to your podcast, I went way back to episode 1 to work my up, currently on episode 18. I am looking to purchase a 4×4, a [YJ] in particular. I found a low mileage rig but it has the 4 cylinder, 2.4 L engine. Are there any pros and cons to this engine over the 6 cylinder? Keep it up guys big fan of the podcast, thanks.

Hi Dan, Craig, and Rich! I’ve been listening for a while and I love the show and the content. I’m in the Air Force and I’ve been lucky enough to experience offroading all over the world. Japan had the best by far but I love living in Germany because its given me the opportunity to buy my baby. A 1977 Volvo C304! I just hope that I’m qualified to listen to the podcast with my extra axle and all.
I’m wondering where in your travels has been all your favorite or most exotic places to offroad.
Thanks for the podcast and the knowledgeable content!
Grüße, (greetings)

This will tend to be a long message as I tend to get wordy and I have several things I wanted to mention.
Back a few episodes ago a listener asked about overlanding in a Subaru. Since then that piqued my interest. My wife drives a ’16 Outback while I have a ’14 JKU. I feel that she has as much or more usable space in the back of her car as in my Jeep. She also gets twice the gas mileage that I do. I purchased the Jeep mainly to drive forest service and ranch roads, for camping and exploring with only a little wheeling. In the last year, I have not had to engage 4 wheel drive more than once for a mud hole and once for a sandy section. I am seriously thinking of trading my Jeep for a Subaru. While the Jeep may be way more capable, I don’t use a fraction of its capabilities, and I am paying a huge gas penalty. I want to do some longer (multi-week) overlanding trips where fuel cost will be a big factor, and true off-road capabilities are not.
I attended OEX this year as I have the past 7 or 8 years. I have been an instructor for five of those years. (I submitted a post on OEX a few years back you posted) Yes, the show has grown, however, I think it has also shifted its focus. It has become much more an outdoor adventure show and less overlanding. A couple of examples, the Sherp (you mentioned), Yamaha side by sides, and a river running supply company (I forget the name). Also, many of the products on display are for heavy four wheeling and not overlanding.
At the show, I did meet with Blackfire and mentioned I heard about them on your podcast. Since the show, I did purchase their multi-tool. I also stopped by LT Wright knives and mentioned the podcast. The most interesting product I saw was the Lifesaver water purifier. Not just a filter but it actually purifies the water. The only other product that does that I have seen is an MSR device for more than $200. This product was $100. Lifesaver is a UK based company that works with Oxfam to provide safe water to developing countries. I was also looking at the wide selection of vans on display. And of course the Rivian.
This is long enough. I’ll stop here. I just hope you continue to produce more content. While you were on hiatus I was forced to listen to the Jeep Talk Show. I’m glad you’re at least a bit more consistent now so I can remove them from the podcasting subscriptions.

I currently use a ground tent. Climbing up and down a ladder does not work for me The ground tent is great if you stay in one place for a few days, but it takes too long to set up and take down. When you and Rich talked about swags I looked into them, but I don’t like sleeping on the ground. I did see on an Aussie YouTube channel (drifta.com.au) an Oztent bunker. That looks interesting, small, easy to set up. Cabela’s has a version for about half the Oztent. The Oztent RV series has a lot to offer. What I think I will end up is a 270-degree awning with side walls and a bunker style cot. As most of my driving is in the southwest, snow, and cold is not a huge issue.
With food, I’m a minimalist. A cheap Walmart propane grill and burgers, brats and an occasional chick breast. Cold sandwiches, cheese, fruit, and homemade trail mix round out my camp food. I do try to stop at local restaurants to get a local flavor. Currently, I have an ice chest, but a fridge-freezer is in the future. I was set on the Dometic, but after looking at the Artemis site, sno-master is now a contender. They have a low profile unit that would be nice in a Sube. I know you are a fan of cast iron, I am at home but on the trail, I don’t want to spend my time cooking and more importantly cleaning. A simple burger means no pots, pans or many plates and silverware. I looked at the Skottle but I don’t see myself using one that much.
Speaking about Artemis. I like the idea of seeing before buying. I have a trip to the southeast planned around Christmas and plan on driving through Springfield to check them out. Another sponsor gets results from your podcast.

Warn Industries Releases Semi-Hidden Kit Mounting System For Gen 2 / 2.5 Toyota Tacoma Clackamas, OR (4/9/19) – Warn Industries has extended its line of popular Semi-Hidden Kit winch mounting systems by offering new applications for both 2005–2011 (gen 2) and 2012–2015 (gen 2.5) Toyota Tacoma pickups.They join the Semi-Hidden Kit for 2016-2019 (gen 3) Tacoma and 2014–2019 4Runner which were introduced in 2018.
The new Semi-Hidden Kits help guard the Tacoma’s front end from trail hazards while offering a secure place to mount a WARN® mid-frame winch up to 12,000 lbs. in capacity. The discrete style maintains the trucks’ factory body lines, and their rugged 1/4″ steel construction is exceedingly stout.
Other features include a welded-on 2″ diameter single-hoop bull bar for protection, and thru-welded shackle mounts for increased recovery options. For the ultimate in corrosion protection, these bumpers wear a durable textured black powder-coated finish that undergoes a five-step pre-treatment process featuring zirconium nanotechnology, and withstand 408 hour salt spray tests. This will ensure the finish lasts and lasts. WARN Semi-Hidden Kit for Gen 2.5 Toyota Tacoma Semi-Hidden Kit for Gen 2.5 Tacoma. Click to download high-res image. Installation is simple with only minor trimming and no need to relocate the winch’s control pack.
These Semi-Hidden Kit mounting systems will accommodate all WARN mid-frame winches up to 12,000 lbs. with the exception of PowerPlant, 9.0Rc, and M8274. The winch’s clutch lever is easily accessed by ports in the bumper.
Both of these mounting systems are made in the USA at the company’s Clackamas, Oregon factory.

We live in a strange time where so many of use want to shop online for equipment designed to get us outside. I get it! Shopping from the comfort of the couch at any time is very appealing.

You can see all that equipment in person, pick it up there, and head straight out for an adventure right from their shop.
Artemis Overland Hardware only stocks the best equipment. Anything you pick is going to stand up to the harsh environments that you’ll be subjecting them to.
At ArtemisOverland.com you’ll find a wide selection of roof top tents and ground tents from companies like Oz Tent, 23Zero, Eezi Awn.

Hi Dan,
My name is Devin from Edmonton Alberta Canada. What’s that saying? Long time lurker first time caller? I’ve been listening to the podcast (among others) on my commute for the last two years, I really enjoy it and overland round table. I seem to work backwards listening to podcasts but hey still listening!
My family and I spend almost every weekend from late April to late October camping every weekend somewhere, you Know it’s bad when your 4 year old is confused when you stay in the city on a weekend.
Thanks to the podcast I’ve grown to love cast iron cooking and am getting a bit of a collection; it’s amazing to me the stuff that people say is garbage and sell it cheap or give it away…… throw it in the oven on self clean, a couple hours of seasoning and you’ve got a new pan for $3.00!
On my way home today I was listening to episode 75 #TBT Central Overland that played May 22, 2014. In it you made mention of a chicken, ranch pizza with beer dough(?) or along those lines that you make in your Dutch oven that sounded amazing I’m wondering if you would be willing to share with me the recipe?
Thanks a lot for the podcast, as I said I really enjoy it and am looking forward to more and more overland round table. Stay safe!

Hello, My name is Landon and I am an avid listener of the podcast. As you guys are fans of jeeps and Dodges, I was wondering what your opinion is on this list? Just out of curiosity.
Yes 2500 suburban super duty 60 front on radius arms and coils. Cummins 12valve 6 speed manual trans. Soon to have a np205 with NW fab doubler on 37s
I bought it already in a 1985 3/4 to Chevy with the 6apeed( bought for the drivetrain ended up daily driving it for 6 years) but I was told it was originally out of a school bus
Non I’ve put probably close to 70k miles on it. Runs like a top. Pump maxed upgrades to 362sxe turbo going to put injectors in it soon
Preparing for a 3week family vacation/ Moab for a week Colorado and as much other wheeling trip next September. Not daily driven truck it is capable of being daily driven I just don’t because I have a Jetta diesel that nets me nearly 50mpg on my 50 mile commute
