Camping in the Rain... and Other Digressions
In this episode we tell some stories and talk about how we deal with camping in the rain... or at least that was the idea.
Let's just say we got off topic a few times, but would you expect anything else from us?

Why Do We Do This?
Join us this week as we talk about why exactly we do what we do. That's right, Rick decided to go a little deep this week.
We dive into why Matt builds things, why Logan makes videos, and why Rick loves obscure vintage backpacks. Yep, this episode has a little something for everyone... assuming that everyone is just a little bit of a nerd.

How To Start Overlanding
In this episode, we discuss what it takes to get started overlanding. While we all agree that you don't need to have a ton of gear, there are some categories that are helpful to consider before setting out. Things like food, sleeping arrangements, shelter, and navigation can make your experience smoother and more enjoyable—or less so.
Let us know in the comments what your first overlanding set up was like!

Full-Size Vs Mid-Size
In this episode we debate the pros and cons of Full-Sized and Mid-Sized rigs. Matt starts out with a strong preference for full Size, but Rick's Mid-Size has served him well in some tight spots. In the end Matt surprises us with his Mid-Size picks.
Let us know in the comments what you prefer and why.

We Almost Died
We've all been on trips where things went a little sideways. In this episode, the guys recall some times that they got a little too close to the black robe and sickle. The stories range from a sled-dog debacle to a childhood encounter with a tornado at a music festival. And of course there are some tangents. That's what we do. If you've had some close calls, aka Type 3 fun, but sure to drop us a comment or DM.

Blue Ridge Overland Gear Has a New Team Member
You might remember that CT departed BROG a couple of months ago, and now we're welcoming Logan to the team. He'll be handling lots of video and photography duties, jumping into the podcast, and wherever else the winds of working on a small team lead us. In this episode of the Overland Bonfire Podcast, we learn a little bit about Logan, some of past (mis)adventures, and, of course, we explore a few tangents. It's what we do.
