📋 Podcast Description:

In this episode of RV Trash Talk, the crew shares how they actually afford full-time RV life—and all the chaos that comes with it. From finding $1,000 campsites (for four months!) to cooking better steaks than any restaurant, we’re breaking down budget tips, side hustles, and “Oh Boy” moments you won’t believe.

Plus: 🐜 Sugar ant invasions 🚪 Hoarder RVs with mystery paths 💩 Rob’s first-ever black tank valve replacement 🧊 And pulling a sweater off an AC coil

Also, if you're not doing pre-move walkarounds… let’s just say someone’s grill didn’t survive. 😬

Quote of the episode: “Never go to a doctor whose office plants have died.” 🌱

Grab your drink, hit play, and prepare for laughs, lessons, and a lot of RV reality.
