Interview

Ep. 22 | Lance Campers Living History & RV’er Arguments

We’ve all heard those theories and comments that get our RV’ing blood going. Some become heated exchanges… and they’re generally good for a laugh if you step back from ’em just a little. So, Lindsay and Clint discuss some common contentious RV’er conversations! Also, Lance Campers had led innovations in campers for years, so getting a chance to sit down with Jack and Gary from Lance, who’ve seen nearly everything at Lance, is a real opportunity PJ and Clint couldn’t pass up.

We sat down with Garrett Finney (CEO) and Divya Brown (President) from TAXA Outdoors to talk about inspiration, design, engineering, and camping. Also. PJ and Clint just returned from the 2019 RV Dealer Open House in Elkhart, Indiana. It was Clint’s first time to see the show… and it was an eye-opener.

Ep. 19 | Travel and Camping with Dogs

You know you love ’em, and they just make life richer. Your dog (or pet of choice) is a part of your family, and chances are they can make your travel and camping even better. So, what do you need to know to be successful on the road and in the woods with your dog? We invited Misty Valenta from the Williamson Regional Animal Shelter to come help us up our camping with dogs game!

Ep. 13 | Campground, Spongebob, or Country Song?

We have a new game! We ask some avid campers, a couple of Princess Craft RV employees a serious line of questions… Is it a campground, a Spongebob episode, or a song by Old Crow Medicine Show? Then, we catch up with teardrop camping friends, Shawn, and Monica Bean! Finally, love it or hate it, beach camping is a thing and we have thoughts on how to do it right.

Ep. 12 | Camp Coffee Jitters | CRUX Expedition Trailers | Noobie Truck Campers

Coffee is so integrated into our lives that we… well, need to take it camping with us! How do you do java and joe on the go? We have some things to try! Expedition Trailers are now a major topic among the camping community and Lorrie Francis developed the CRUX Expedition Trailers to be an all-in option for the off-road adventures. Why would you even think to get a truck camper? Jeff and David are new to truck campers and we caught them talking in the waiting room… so we mic’d them up! And a listener question: My LP detector always goes beep in the night! What’s that all about?
