    End Of Year Voicemails | Unfiltered | Ep 132
    Jan 2 2026
    We continue our close out of the year with your voicemails and the crew swaps favorite 2025 moments and what changed us most: first meet-ups that turned into friendships, holiday plans that went sideways, and the reminder that the people around the rig matter more than the parts on it. Between a few good-natured roasts and some honest reflection, we talk about what we’re thankful for, what we learned, and what we want to build together next.📍 Trails and DestinationsTrail Hero XSand Hollow OHV Region (Utah)Winter 4x4 JamboreeRubicon TrailOverland Expo West🛠️ Gear and ToolsStarlinkRiversideSDHQ OffroadRebel Off Road🚙 Community and Advocacy GroupsBlueRibbon CoalitionUtah Public Lands Alliance (UPLA)🚙 Community ShoutoutsCalvin & Jennifer — SRG OffroadFran AdlerJD: MeAndMyYellowJKKeenan Campbell📅 Events and ResourcesTrail Hero X 2025Winter 4x4 JamboreeOverland Expo West📞 Get InvolvedLeave a voicemailApple PodcastsInstagramWebsiteShopTyri Offroad Lights — use code TRAILHEAD15 for 15% offRecord your show with Riverside

  • Why Don't We Record At Trailheads? | Unfiltered | Ep 131

    Why Don't We Record At Trailheads? | Unfiltered | Ep 131
    Dec 31 2025

    JD is joined by Keenan (Overlanding with Intention), Calvin (SRG Offroad), and Fran Adler (Fran's JK Adventures) for a laid-back final check-in with the crew for the year. The crew trades travel plans (SEMA, Overland Expo, and next year’s Trail Hero), talks about making The Trailhead more mobile, and then slides into the real holiday tradition: diagnosing Jeeps that hate cold weather—aux-battery delete tips, mystery codes, and the never-ending rear main seal saga. They wrap this show with night-run talk, mapping tools like Trails Offroad and onX, and the big question: why not record episodes from actual trailheads?

  • Winch Failed On Day One | THX Series | Ep 130

    Winch Failed On Day One | THX Series | Ep 130
    Dec 26 2025

    This episode kicks off a new series focused on Trail Hero Expeditions, with JD sitting down for one-on-one conversations with members of the cast—starting with Keenan Campbell. Keenan shares what the Expedition felt like from the driver’s seat: building a purpose-driven overland-style Jeep, the real-world headaches that don’t care about camera time (including a winch failure), and how the pace and expectations change when you’re part of a filmed trail experience. From there, they swap stories from Southern Utah stops like Grafton Ghost Town and big-view moments around the Grand Canyon, before bringing it home to what really sticks—the friends you make, the laughs you don’t plan for, and the stories you collect along the way that end up meaning more than the miles.

    TRUKD’s Philosophy: Talk to Your People | Waypoints | Ep 129
    Dec 19 2025
    JD sits down with Ben Azam, founder of TRUKD, to talk through how a personal need for a cleaner camp setup turned into a Pittsburgh-built, modular truck bed rack system. They get into real-world fitment quirks (tonneau covers, different bed shapes, and why nothing is truly “standard”), materials and finish choices (stainless vs. aluminum, powder coat, and hardware), and what it actually feels like to scale a product company without losing your mind. Along the way, they swap trail-and-travel stories—Holy Cross plans, Sedona tire fixes, Starlink “just in case” moments, and why paper MVUM/BLM maps still earn a spot in the glovebox.TRUKD (T-R-U-K-D)📍 Trails and DestinationsHoly Cross City (Colorado)Georgetown, ColoradoClear Creek County, ColoradoSedona, ArizonaFlagstaff, ArizonaPoint Pleasant, West Virginia (Mothman country)Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania🛠️ Gear and ToolsTRUKD modular bed rack systemTonneau cover (tri-fold style mentioned)Rooftop tentAwningStarlink satellite internetGlueTread tire repair kitToyo Open Country R/T Trail tiresGaia GPSonX OffroadPurple Lizard MapsUSFS MVUM (Motor Vehicle Use Map)BLM georeferenced PDF maps🚙 Community and Advocacy GroupsBackroads of AppalachiaGambler 500🚙 Community ShoutoutsBen Azam / TRUKD🗓️ Events and ResourcesOverland Expo EastOverland Expo Pacific Northwest (PNW)Overland Expo Mountain West (Loveland, CO)Mid-Atlantic Overland FestivalRange to Ranch (Idaho)24 Hours of Appalachia: Mothman’s Revenge📞 Get InvolvedCall / voicemail: 719-408-0132Apple PodcastsInstagramWebsiteShopTyriLights

    We Get To The Voicemails... Eventually | Unfiltered | Ep 128
    Dec 1 2025
    This one’s straight from the garage: quick rig and life updates up top (the lights crushed it, it wasn’t the power-steering pump, and yes—we aired those tires way down on purpose). We traded a little friendly grief about beadlocks and link setups, then hit a short news run with gear worth watching, event notes, and a couple access items you’ll actually care about before your next trip. The back half is all you—voicemails with a solid trail win, a “learned it the hard way” moment, and one eerily on-point call about getting stuck in the sand that turned into real talk about prep, recovery, and doing it right on public land.📍 Trails and DestinationsMoab, Utah (TrailsOffroad Region Page)Sand Hollow, Utah (TrailsOffroad Region Page)Anthracite Outdoor Adventure Area — AOAA (TrailsOffroad Park Page)🛠️ Gear and ToolsStarlinkAPEX Designs USA — Rapid Precision ValvePower Tank — On-Board AirBeadlock MarketplaceTYRI Off-Road Lighting🚙 Community and Advocacy GroupsBlueRibbon CoalitionStay The Trail (Colorado)Tread Lightly!🚙 Community Shoutouts@beatricejku@mudhorn_gladiator@mechanic_jk@frans_jl_adventures@srgoffroad📰 Legal and Policy TopicsBRC Updates: Recent OHV Access WinsBRC – Operation: AccessibleStay The Trail – MVUM & Smart MapsTread Lightly! – Partnerships & Support📞 Get InvolvedCall the Show: 719-408-0132Listen on Apple PodcastsFollow on InstagramVisit the WebsiteGrab the ShopCheck out TyriLights

    She's Seen A Lot, But That Freaked Her Out | Unfiltered | Ep 127
    Nov 21 2025
    JD and the crew are back to catch-up with show regulars Bryan (Beatrice JKU), Nathan (Mudhorn Gladiator) Calvin Pulda of SRG Offroad, Joe the Mechanic, and Fran Adler from Fran’s JL Adventures. The crew swaps SEMA takeaways, winter wheeling plans, and East-vs-West trail talk—from Moab and Sand Hollow to AOAA and the Ben Franklin Range—sprinkled with real-world fixes like driveshaft choices, lighting that actually helps at night, and what to pack before the snow runs. Fran adds a front-row perspective and Joe brings the wrench-turner reality check, while the gang keeps it grounded with trail etiquette and access reminders. If you’re mapping EJS prep or plotting a cold-weather shakedown, this one’s equal parts trip planning, gear wisdom, and shop-floor honesty.📍Trails and DestinationsMoab, UtahSand Hollow State Park, UtahAnthracite Outdoor Adventure Area (AOAA), PennsylvaniaBen Franklin Range, Pennsylvania🛠️ Gear and ToolsJKS Manufacturing (referenced for JL/JT fitment talk)🚙 Community ShoutoutsBryan: Beatrice JKU the LunchboxJD: MeAndMyYellowJKNathan the unpaid intern aka MudhornGladiatorFran Adler: Fran’s JL AdventuresCalvin: SRG Offroad🌎 Advocacy & ConservationStay the TrailBlueRibbon CoalitionUtah Public Lands Alliance (UPLA)📰 News TopicsSEMA trip recaps and takeaways (general discussion)EJS prep chatter and shop talk (general discussion)📅 Events and ResourcesEaster Jeep Safari (EJS)AOAA – Park Info & Events📞 Get involved!Leave us a voicemail!

    We Had To Call Matt's Offroad Recovery | Unfiltered | E123
    Oct 31 2025
    In this reflective episode of The Trailhead, JD and the crew address “The Incident,” an unexpected Jeep accident that tested everyone’s focus, teamwork, and community spirit. They open up about what happened, how they responded, and the outpouring of support that followed from fellow off-roaders. The team talks about how the Jeep was ultimately recovered by the famous Matt’s Off-Road Recovery, a reminder of the incredible network that exists within the off-road world. It’s a candid and heartfelt conversation that sheds light on safety, camaraderie, and how quickly the off-road family rallies when things go wrong. The team also talks about lessons learned on and off the trail, the gear that helped when it mattered most, and what comes next for the show.📍Trails and DestinationsSand Hollow State Park, Utah🛠️ Gear and ToolsTyri Offroad LightsMotobiltRock Hard 4x4PSC Motorsports SteeringRecovery Gear – Factor 55🚙 Community ShoutoutsJD: MeAndMyYellowJKPope & Randi: JemandtheMisfitAlyssa: HoldMyCoffee_AZBryan: Beatrice JKU the LunchboxNathan the unpaid intern aka MudhornGladiatorRich KleinTrail HeroMatt’s Off-Road Recovery🌎 Advocacy & ConservationBlueRibbon CoalitionUtah Public Lands Alliance (UPLA)📰 News TopicsTrail Hero Safety and Community ResponseSupporting Fellow Off-Roaders After IncidentsGear Essentials for Emergency Recovery📅 Events and ResourcesTrail Hero XEaster Jeep Safari (EJS) 2025All-4-Fun 2025📞 Get involved!Leave us a voicemail!
