OAR 2025 Recap, Backpack Launch, Plus an Insane Vanagon Hybrid Build!

After disappearing for a few weeks (October was CRAZY), we're back with a massive update episode!

We're recapping Outdoor Adventure Rendezvous 2024, doing an epic jerky taste test with Yellowstone Natural bison and elk jerky, and talking about the wildest builds we saw at Overland Expo. Plus, the READY Pack backpack pre-order is LIVE right now - link below!

We also spill the details on an absolutely insane custom VW Vanagon hybrid build running on portals with a BMW motor. This thing is going to be legendary.

We're retiring some products to make room for new gear, and we're heading to Georgia Bushcraft next week.

Drop a comment if you were at OAR or Expo, and let us know what you want to see on the podcast going forward!
