Ben and Jared are finally getting to hangout with a long time listener, plus friend of the show and now friend in real life, Omar. Better known on the show as Dadiator! Omar was in town all the way from New Jersey, the opposite side of the country, so made time to come by the studio. We share some tasty beverages, provided by Omar, and share some fun stories. He fills us in on what it's like wheeling and camping along the "Right" coast and some of the challenges. There's new changes coming to his sweet 2020 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon and he gives us a breakdown of his build. We talk tires size, bears, Disneyland, campsite etiquette and much more.

Our buddy Norm, AKA the Land Beaver, is back hanging out with us in the studio. He's fresh off a 3 week trip covering a lot of ground. We get to hear about some of the cool places him and his wife Laura got to experience from Niagara Falls, Maine lobsters, Ben & Jerry's in Vermont, wild horses on Chincoteague island, Graceland, Tombstone and so many more fun stops.

Jared and Ben are hanging out and catching up this week. They both recently got back from multi day trips but in two different areas. Ben went with a group to do the White Rim Trail in Moab, Utah. Where some fun times, amazing views and great food were had. While at the same time Jared was heading up the 395 in California with just his dog Daisy. Even though his meals were not lavish he still got to see some beautiful scenery and enjoyed some nice relaxing time at camp. #nanadilla
