It’s the Dudes Only edition of RV Trash Talk! In this episode, Danny, Rob, and Jim take over the mics while the ladies head out—and the guys dive into the real, unfiltered side of RV living.

From safety and security on the road to the tools they can’t live without, the guys share their best advice and a few embarrassing confessions (weed whacker, anyone?). They tackle how to keep your sanity living in 300 sq. ft., what happens when tempers flare, and the maintenance issues that just won’t quit. Plus, Rob drops a wild “oh boy” moment about back-to-back valve stem blowouts that’ll make you double-check your tires.

This is a must-listen for anyone who’s ever wondered what full-time RV life looks like when the guys are left unsupervised. Packed with laughs, practical tips, and the occasional man-card debate (pedicures included), this episode shows RV living from a whole new angle.

RV life isn’t always glamorous — but it’s always worth it. In this special “girls only” episode of RV Trash Talk, Melissa (4 Simple Lives), Amy (The Vagabondz Jim and Amy), and Trish (Living Like Nomads) kick the guys out and get real about what life on the road is actually like.

From dividing up RV roles with their spouses to staying organized in tiny spaces, they share hard-earned tips and plenty of laughs. You’ll hear why baskets and bins are a woman’s best friend, the three must-have items each swears by (spoiler: good internet makes the list), and what they’d change about their rigs if they could. Plus, some hilarious “oh boy” moments you’ll relate to if you’ve ever battled smoke alarms, crooked slides, or chaotic move days.

Whether you’re a solo traveler, part of a couple, or just dreaming about hitting the road, this episode brings you practical advice and real stories about full-time RV living, RV repairs, and RV travel adventures.
