On this episode, we bring you an interview with Taylor Adney. Taylor is the CEO of Overland Textile Co (https://www.overlandtextile.com), a company that specializes in bringing quality clothing, leather goods, and other high quality gear to the overlander, offroader, and outdoor enthusiasts. Taylor is also involved in a group called, The Overland Adventures (http://theoverlandadventures.net) that explores, primarily in the northeaster areas of Oklahoma, and the surrounding areas, including Arkansas and the Ozark National Forest. Taylor is also a primary panelist on the Overland Roundtable (http://overlandroundtable.com), a podcast that discusses topics specially related of overlanding in all the various forms.
You’ll likely notice that the videos and pictures that Taylor publishes are top notch and we discuss the reason for this on the podcast. Taylor even gives away some of his tips on how you can produce better images and videos of your offroad adventures. Taylor is fairly new to the offroading segment, having begun roughly 4 years ago. He began his journey into the activity after picking up an old Toyota 4Runner. After spending so much time and effort working on the tired old motor, Taylor moved up to a fourth generation Toyota 4Runner. This newer rig was, almost immediately modified. The modifications include lift, roof rack, roof top tent (which was a surprise gift from his wife for Christmas), and more.

At https://www.fs.fed.us/visit/maps you can find all the motor vehicle access maps that you need to help plan out your own adventures in the US National Forest areas.
Offroading 101: Skipped for this episode.
Outdoor Edibles: We asked Taylor what he likes to make while on his outdoor adventures. Taylor prefers the simple approach to cooking outside and enjoys roasting hot dogs and brats on the fire with his kids. Preparing food at home and then taking it to camp also helps speed up the meal prep process. Sandwich stuff is always and hit and can travel well too.
