Carried Away

Today we’ll be doin' a lil less yappin' about ourselves and do another round of community EDC submissions! We looked through our different communities on Facebook, Reddit, and Discord for some banger setups to show you guys today. EDC Submission form: https://forms.gle/7qFX2gFBXdNEyeUHA

Today we’ll be talking about travel gear and tips through the lens of a couple of EDC enthusiasts. The gear you bring with you when traveling isn’t exactly the same as you might carry with you every day, and traveling in general comes with its own set of challenges.

Bernard spent the last week in Las Vegas at SHOT Show 2024, a huge industry trade show where everyday carry brands reveal their new products for the year. In this episode of Carried Away, Bernard recaps his experience at the show, gives his opinion on the best new products he got hands-on time with, and makes predictions on the next big trends for 2024.

In this episode we talk about clothing as an extension of an everyday carry. Exploring the overlap between Techwear and EDC, since both of them share the philosophy of staying prepared for whatever the day throws your way.

Believe it or not, we are somehow in the year 2024. So what better time than the start of the year to think about our goals and plans ahead of us and how our EDC can factor into that.

Today we'll be taking a bit of a step back into our roots. Since everydaycarry.com originally started as a blog where we reviewed other people's EDC's, that's exactly what we'll be doing today. Today's episode is dedicated to the community which is the backbone that sustained us 10 years ago and still does today. .

Today we’re talkin about EDC knives. Not just any EDC knives, but the “best” EDC knives. Mikey and I have been working on this gigantic list of knives to recommend for the past few months, we landed on 25 of them so we thought it would be fun to do a little tier list ranking. We’re saving Q&A for the end so stick around for that as well.

With the holidays coming up, Thanksgiving here in the States, we figured now’s as good a time as any to reflect a bit on our EDCs: what worked out this year, what didn’t, and what surprised us. We hope this discussion helps you explore ways you can fine tune your EDC for the better or maybe appreciate it just the way it is.

Like with literally any other hobby, there’s a deep rabbithole when it comes to flashlights. In today’s episode, we’ll touch on some flashlight fundamentals, more popular mainstream options, and then do a deeper dive into the more enthusiast flashlight meta

Today we’ll be exploring the question: what is your most prized possession? In the context of EDC, our belongings have the potential to be extremely personal and significant to us. So how do we define that significance and what factor does it play in the way and the things we carry?

In this episode of the Carried Away Podcast, Bernard and Mikey dive into the concepts of Minimalism and "Maximalism" when it comes to everyday carry. They explore what they actually mean, their pros and cons and if they're actually even opposite to each other.

In this episode of the Carried Away Podcast, Bernard and Mikey give advice on how to build an EDC using a budget loadout and an enthusiast setup as contrasting examples. With how contentious a subject the price of EDC items can be, they explain the “what” and the “why” behind both sides of the budget vs. premium gear debate.

Bernard and Mikey discuss what "everyday carry" actually means, how it started, how they got into it, and how YOU can get into it if you don't know where to start.
