JD, Bryan (Beatrice JKU the Lunchbox), Calvin (@srgoffroad), and Nathan the unpaid intern aka MudhornGladiator circle up for a lively episode packed with summer wheeling prep, gear gossip, and privacy talk. The crew digs into Instagram’s new location-sharing default, Calvin’s soon-to-arrive tent & awning, and Bryan’s marathon wrench-fest on Mischief Maker before Great Smoky Mountain Jeep Invasion. JD vents about another round of lifetime-warranty drama on his JK, while everyone debates the merits of the new TruckClaws emergency traction kit. Hot temps, hotter tires, and a few laughs about $100 K Hellcat Durangos round out the night. Tune in for practical tips, spirited banter, and off-road recovery insights!
