A-a-ron in da house from New Mexico | He's not going to like this title

In this week's episode, I sat down in studio with Aaron Ridley. I met Aaron back in the BO days (2021). He and his wife took an amazing adventure and documented it so well, I asked if they come on a talk about it, so they did. Fast forward to today. Aaron purchased a Expidition Trailer. They are semi close to us so, he camped in our backyard and he and I went to pick it up the next day. We more or less discuss that big trip and also talked about their trip to Africa. We also nerd out on camera gear, talk about today's "overland YouTube craze" and shared our side of life. Make sure to watch their epic trip videos here

Brief about:
My name is Benji. I am passionate about Overlanding and Human Connection. I know right! They usually don't mix. I started my overland journey back in 2018 when a couple buddies and myself went wheeling and camping. I was immediately hooked. I started a Facebook group called Budget Overland and that opened the podcast door for me in November 2021. Budget Overland was fun and had its place in that time (for me personally). I have grown and shifted in my journey. I started this Podcast and YouTube channel New Found Overland. My approach to the word overland. If you've been in the space at all, you have seen the constant arguing of the word making most avoid the word all together. I was about to do the same, but everything I do is in fact overlanding. So, NEW FOUND OVERLAND was created in April 2024. I hope you don't take yourself or overlanding for that matter too serious. It's not rocket science. We love to travel, camp and help protect public lands and trails so that future generations can enjoy. Welcome, I am glad to have you here.
