The Riveted with Chris & Gina

Episode 95 - On a Colorado High

This week on the pod it's just us! Recapping that we hit the road headed west for summer, celebrate America's 250th, and raise a toast to Airstream founder Wally Byam's 130th birthday! Along the way, we're sharing the highs (and a few lows) of life on the road - from our Airstream taking a beating, unexpected tire issues, and an incredible experience at a Discount Tire in Durango. Boondocking near Silverton, to breathtaking drives through Colorado's Million Dollar Highway, and soaking (literally) in the beauty of Ridgeway and Ouray... even as the wildfire burns and smoke drifted into the mountains. As we continue making our way to the International Rally in Minot, we're opening the door for anyone who'd like to join us for a remote recording, thanking our amazing Patreon supporters, and sharing a few exciting updates—including our upcoming 100th episode, our two-year podcast anniversary, and a special guest we're hoping to welcome soon. Side Note: To help celebrate America's 250th birthday, we did a special YouTube collaboration featuring our Stream Team (Airstream content creators), where we each share one of our favorite scenic roads to explore across the country. All in one video! We hope you'll check it out after the podcast! So, Listener . . . buckle up, enjoy the ride, and thanks for letting us be part of your journey. We're glad you're here.

Episode 94 - One Cool Canadian

This week we jump north of the border and spend some time with fellow Airstreamer, Jonathan Schloo. A seasoned boondocker, inventor, and all-around great Canadian guy. This chat ranges from our age-old debate of Queen beds vs. Twin beds to boondocking, "crackerdocking," and everything in between. We cover a lot of ground and have a lot of laughs along the way. Jonathan shares lessons he's learned through his years of camping and traveling, and the inspiration behind the invention of the Car Generator, a game changer for many Airstreamers and RVers looking for a quieter, more convenient way to stay powered up off-grid. Whether you're a hardcore boondocker, just getting started with off-grid camping, or simply curious, you're going to enjoy this conversation.

Episode 93 - MidStrong Streamin'

Paul and Julie Reilly, from Massachusetts, made an impulse purchase of a brand new Airstream Trade Wind while on a trip to New Mexico and it has become one of the best "quick decisions" of their life. We chat about how buying the Airstream made them realize it was time to seize this time in their life to explore, enjoy full time travel and chase the experiences. Also, as health and fitness instructors, they share with us some thoughts on how to balance prioritizing your health with the abundance of this travel lifestyle.

Episode 92 - The Aluminum Force

Lee and Kirsten Elliott from TN bought their first Airstream in their 20’’s and have owned 4 over the past 30 years, all from the 90’s vintage! A few that needed some restoration to enjoy, but every one took their family all over the country. Even being towed by a 1/2 ton Suburban!. This conversation has plenty of nostalgia blended with the real time passion for the Airstream brand that makes you realize just how much of a “force” it can be in your life!
