Reviews

4.8 out of 5 stars from 301 ratings
  • It feels corporate

    So much potential, but lacks credibility by having a host with no real world overlanding experience. As the Xoverland brand has grown its diluted more and more, and this podcast is just another revenue stream. Some episodes are great(hosted by the Crofts), while the rest feel like filler designed to meet content goals for sponsors.

    Lets all pray they don't ruin the Overland Journal podcast.
