On the trail it’s well known that if it can go wrong, it probably will, it’s Murphy’s Law. Our recent trip up to Death Valley with Deadman Offroad was no exception and as a matter of fact, it seemed Murphy had something to prove. On the heels of our Mojave trip where Frank lost his trailer traversing Soda “Dry” Lake and the recovery that ensued, we had something like 8 unique things go wrong on individual rigs as we travelled across Death Valley.

We finish up our cast from the Mojave Road with a long-overdue sit down with our good friend, Matt Schulz. Matt, a longtime member of the Rigged For Dirt OC crew was one of the original members of the meetup when it was called OC Rigs and Coffee.

Marking a year's worth of podcasts our 24th episode finds us on the historic and storied, Mojave Road. A few old friends, Matt and Mike, and some new faces, Jeff and Bob, made up the roster of this trip with a range of combined experiences across the board.

In this episode, we find ourselves back home again. The RFD team is fresh off adventures and ready to tell some stories. October was an incredible month for the team, full of unique adventures, experience, and self-reflection.

In this episode, we sit with Jason Denney co-conspirator behind RIGd Supply at one of our local haunts, Maple Springs Trail. We crack open a couple and have a nice sit down with Jason Denney, co-founder of RIGd Supply, who's also known as "TacoDust" on Instagram (we talk about what that means too).

When you first meet Rob, you find a person who’s reserved and stands back from the crowd. After a little while, you realize he’s just waiting to see how much of what he wants to say you can handle. A man with a mysterious past, Rob couldn’t tell you himself what his life was a few decades ago because, well, he can’t remember.

In this episode, we get an opportunity to interview one of the names behind the offroad world, Tony Carvallo. From a mechanical engineer grad serving beer in a bar to getting in with JEEP corp (a division of FCA - Fiat Chrysler Automobiles), Tony soon rose within the design ranks, first as the Durability Manager and then as the lead behind the team of the iconic Wrangler project.

Oh that one guy, oh hey that dude, Oh that one dude bro guy...there are many words that make up the man known as Adam Pfeifer and we get a chance to catch up with him at this year's KMC Jeep Bash put on by EVO Manufacturing and Jeep. From details about his awesome extended wheelbase Jeep JKU known as "TITAN".

We kick off this episode on the final night of KC and 5.11's Summer Camp in Williams, AZ. In this episode in addition to all the excitement and action of Summer Camp, we have the pleasure to finally get to sit down with Brad (@TrailRecon) and Marco (@ovrlndX)!
