Overland Journal Podcast Episode 200

Five years and 200 episodes. Scrolling through the history of the Overland Journal Podcast, going back all the way to the first time Scott and Matt sat down to chat with Dan Grec at Overland Expo in 2019, it’s remarkable how much literal and metaphorical ground we’ve covered. The wealth of stories, knowledge, insight, and inspiration that has flowed into our microphones over the years is astounding. We’re incredibly grateful for all of our sponsors, guests, and, of course, you, the listeners without whom we never would have reached this milestone.

In many ways, the Overland Journal Podcast has become the voice of the industry and of adventurous travelers across the globe, and we’re proud of that. We also want to hear your voices—don’t hesitate to reach out with feedback on the pod, ideas for topics or interviews, or just simply to leave a comment. This is a close-knit community, and we value your input.

Join hosts Scott Brady, Matt Scott, and Ashley Giordano for a look back and a look forward. Here’s to the next 200.

Ashley Giordano

Ashley recently completed a 48,800-kilometer overland journey from Vancouver, Canada, to Buenos Aires, Argentina, with her husband, Richard, in their well-loved but antiquated Toyota Pickup. On the zig-zag route south, she hiked craggy peaks in the Andes, discovered diverse cultures in 15 different countries, and indulged in spicy ceviche, Baja fish tacos, and Argentinian Malbec. You can usually find Ashley buried in a pile of travel books, poring over maps, or researching wild medicinal plants. Ashley grew up in Kelowna, British Columbia, and spent much of her youth as a competitive figure skater. She worked as a paralegal for eight years while completing a diploma in holistic nutrition. She is currently studying herbal medicine with a focus on women’s health. @desktoglory_ash
