The Blue Collar Offroad Podcast

Chris Shinammon joins Luke, richie, cody with a guest appearance from shawn as well. They cover wheeling a jk, getting involved with Rockaholics building his current buggy, plans for his new chassis and running humble pie. We finish off with some good dad advice and some horrifying cat facts.

Cody has to go plow snow leaving Luke, Richie, and Graham shoot the breeze. Hydro lines, AN vs JIC, and what's going with Grembos jeep come up. 

Jason K returns for a long overdue and much owed episode, we cover what got the guy into wheeling, some older parks, old builds, current builds, clown school, and good times. Cant wait to see the Jeepster out and on the trails!

This week we grabbed the man behind the curtain on a lot of the work we have talked about on previous podcasts. While Jacob has never officially wheeled with our club, hes worked on a good few of the rigs in it, and had a two door xj wayyy back before the club's time. What was planned as a eulogy episode to the old "Howie's Auto" Garage he recently closed, twists into a nostalgia trip back to our...

Joe joins the boys to talk about his TJ juggy with the usual, 05+ axles, 43 stickies, suck down winches, coilovers, and a tube frame. Where the good wheeling is, bucket list trips, and how he got into it.

We're back with Mark Knibbs aka FM Jeeper for another round of updates on what hes been up to. Hes recently finished his full hydro system and may install a suckdown winch on each corner for maximum flex control.

Nick joins us to talk about the Great American Walt trip, the progress on his buggy and grem even bothered to show up. 

This week we grabbed Mike Panebianco who is honestly long overdue for an episode! For those who don't know Mike you've more than likely seen at least one of the many rigs he has built floating around the internet. He seems to always have at least 2-3 builds in progress at any point and all of them come out phenomenal. We talk about some of our favorites that he's built, and what he has going on no...

Grab your extra large crayons and start doodling while listening to the soothing sound of Keith the owner of Ratchets Offroad talks about wheeling, the business, bread and butter work and weird projects. Also Laugh at Luke and try and figure out where the meds take effect. 

Happy New Year everyone! We kick off our third year of talking aimlessly into a mic with BYB Club President Shawn Pierce. Who finally after much delay (thanks Graham) has his new buggy back home and about ready to beat this winter. Plus the obligatory discussions about plans for the upcoming year and some reflection on 2022.

Chris Iosua comes on to talk about his jk, 24 hours to hell and back, and then thing devolved into some exciting details. 

Kyle from HaulNCrawl came on and asked some thought provoking questions, talked about how his xj ended up cut to absolutely nothing, what he is doing to put it back together, and finally how to package a manatee?

The man the myth the legend joins us to talk about his old rigs, getting back into it, wheeling with the boys, and where you can find him next! 

Curtis and Eddie ended up meeting after we where not sure if Eddie was going to make it. We talk about how xjs are nothing but compromises, eddies new buggy, his plans for it, mock Curtis and it was fun. 

I was going to put something nifty for the title but instead I figure I will let Dave do the talking for himself. This one ranks up there with Sam, Tyler, Nick, and Dwight as far as being awesome. Super cool dude, super cool rigs (28 to be exact) and he goes into something we never knew of, off-road tours!

Xj Mike was supposed to come on, but he had some issues with his water heater so the boys talk wheeling kissh's, fuel cell gripes, and tow rig things. All and all it was a fun one. 

Werock, well Caleb Good does at the very least. A nice blend of Tech, humor, video games, Luke looking for a good time to hit Grem with a shovel if he has to hear any more about suckdown winches, and some talk of electric buggies. Check it out, this one was shocking. 

This week the gang had the pleasure of talking with Tyler Oberste aka "Ober Time". We discuss his early days in the hobby, his rigs over the years, and of course the art of blastin tires off the rims in a burnout pit.

Half the cast went AWOL so Richie and Luke called up the crew from Good Evening Ranch to shoot the shit, talk about the weekend and drop some info about what we have going on next year. We do apologize if some of the audio is imperfect, we are trying a new recording system, plus we had 2 people sharing a mic. 

Nick Leblanc returns as we celebrate 100 episodes! We shoot.....No Grem shoots the shit for most of the episode, we talk about gators at some point, and Nick explains going back to a mans transmission.

Barrel rolling into this episode the boys are back from GER and had quite the time. We find out how driving on no sleep works, why motobilt is trash, talk about good times in the woods, and we discuss moving Labor Day's party.

Getting ready to go to Good evening ranch has been quite a rough trip for Luke and Grem! We talk about what was required to get Berry on the trail again, and grems rig ripping the leafs out. Swing by if you are at GER!

After some technical issues causing a recording to go bad, Luke's jeep exploding, and with good evening ranch coming up Grem, Richie, and Cody sit down to shoot the shit.

In this episode we say a prayer for the Green Buggy which we hope will be done someday soon. Drank questionable beer from Ruffstuff or something, found out the real reason people need a suckdown winch, and went way off the rails in the second half.

Jason @99_white_xj and Curtis.berens (hack bar) Join us to talk about the time they had at rausch, the damage suffered to Curtis's jeep, getting old and liking hotels and finally what Curtis will do next. (Oh and 43s+LS=V-Notch._
