RV Small Talk Podcast

What does a retired NFL pro do to clear his head and find direction and peace? Well, if the NFL pro you're talking about is Joe Hawley, the answer is to grab your dog, get a van, and hit the road! The RV Small Talk Podcast team had the chance to meet Joe when he came by Princess Craft RV to pick us his new Arctic Fox truck camper. We got his story, heard his "now" and wonder about the amazing future ahead of him. Join us!

Admittedly, we all dream and wonder what it'd be like to travel full-time. Then our thoughts go to "what would it actually take?" Well, We found Bob and Pearl Caddel from the YouTube channel "Next Exit," and they have actually made the leap into full-time RV'ing. We have a great conversation with Bob and Pearl, and I think we learned a little, too!

More and more of us want to camp with our RVs in remote locations. Public land, BLM land, generally further away from our usual conveniences and amenities. Well, that means venturing out into the homes of nature's full-time residents. How does one safely set up and camp near wildlife?

Our great friend, Teri Lucas, owner and educator at Kardiac Lifesavers, helps Clint and Lindsay get a grip on what should be in their First Aid preparations. Not only that, they talk techniques, planning, and Teri has relatable stories galore! So, hang on tight. This episode goes in all sorts of directions in the hopes of keeping everyone well and traveling!

Honestly, we don't know how the RV Small Talk Podcast has arrived at the two-year mark already! PJ, Lindsay, and Clint have been having so much fun talking to people and discussing RV stuff that the time really has gotten away from us. That's okay! Let's look back at some of our favorite characters and topics from the previous two-years of podcasts... that's 79 episodes! Thanks for joining us!

With new power options like lithium-ion batteries, your RV's converter may no longer be the right charging system for the job you're asking of it. Todd Vice, from WFCO, helps us to understand why there are differences and what WFCO products can do for your battery investments. Oh... and we have a fun talk about the trouble with humidity in your RV, too!

After the events in Texas a couple of weeks ago, we really needed to review what we have on hand should a disaster come our way. Most of us raided our camping and RV supplies to keep us warm, fed, hydrated, and healthy. We learned a thing or two, but we also have a better idea of where our packing in lacking. Join the RV Small Talk team and Kate Dunbar, the Campground Gourmet, as we discuss what saved us and what we really need to do better.

Well... PJ, Lindsay, and Clint all survived the generational freeze Texas just endured, and they have some perspective on the experience. Also, water was a major concern across the state and the question of how to get safe potable water needed to be discussed.

PJ and Clint riff on what they think it means to be a truly 4-season camper, and how to keep yourself comfortable in low temperatures. So, if your plans include cold times and destinations, you'll want to consider your setup and your gear! Join us!

There are so many things that rob us of fuel efficiency when we take to the road. All the little things add up, but just knowing helps us all tweak our systems for those extra miles and long-hauls! Also, PJ and Lindsay took on their own camping adventure at Inks Lake and Longhorn Caverns last week. They recount some of the adventures. Join us!
