Welcome to Trailer Fire — the podcast that proves you don’t need a blueprint to build something that works… at least for a little while. Trailer Fire is a hilarious podcast about building something out of nothing—and laughing when it falls apart. I’m Travis Stevenson, a comedian raised in a house made of slapped-together trailers that we eventually had to burn down. Now I sit down with comics and creators to talk about the messy, makeshift paths we take chasing something real. And If it doesn’t work? We’ll set it on fire and try again.

We investigate the Amish community’s suspicious relationship with electricity —turns out some of them might be cheating on God with a blender. Then, we mourn the mysterious disappearance of lightning bugs , speculate wildly, and blame the government (probably)... and things take a sharp left when we unpack the time Travis's gran...

Trailer Fire #3 – Gorilla Fights, Blue Lagoons, and Brown Pants 16.05.2025 1:16:25

On this episode of Trailer Fire , I'm joined by John Murphy and my brother Zach as we spiral through a true variety show of topics.
