Presented by Nexen Tire: We recap the @syndicate.offroad brewfest @stonebrewing We talk to @mountain_hatch @redlandsjeep Henry with @jlwranglers @syndicate_yotas @traumapak @db_flags This was an amazing event and we hope we get invited to the next one!

Presented by @nexentireusa : We talk to Jeremy Headlee from @ivdsuspension about the path he took to becoming the Marketing Manager at Icon Vehicle Dynamics. Then, we draw the winners of the Nexen Tire Gieveaway Contest. Did you win?

Presented by Nexen Tires After having some discussion about the passing of Jessi Combs, we review an article from @motortrend. It unexpectedly went off the rails and I think Matt may have just started a feud with the largest name in automotive journalism. I don't think we have the legal resources to back that up, so, hopefully, they are cool with us talking about their #mojavetrail video. Sorry Motor Trend.

Presented by @nexentireusa : The Trailchaser Team was given the opportunity to experience #iconequipped vehicles on a race track. That's right, the folks at Icon Vehicle Dynamics let us drive their trucks, and we drove them hard. It was an epic day that really opened our eyes to what a vehicle with performance suspension can do. The @ivdsuspension Team was awesome and I will be definitely dreaming of a day when I can put their products under my truck.

We talk to Joe Cardenas from @joecal_tacomas @socaltacomas @socalyotas @_lifes_trails @bjjmojo We talk about how he has a full time job managing #instagram pages, a full time job working for @leitnerdesigns and a full time job selling fruit...not on the corner though. Thanks Joe, we had a great time!

We are giving away a set of Nexen Roadian MTX Tires from @nexentireusa Listen to the episode to find out how you can #enter and #win the #contest We also talk to Casey Sisson about the awesome #yj he is building and you get to hear how one of us almost died this weekend. 

We look at some of the new electric trucks coming out in the near future and discuss them as if we have any business buying one. As much as we would like to get our hands on a @rivian @atlisMV @tesla @bollingermotors I don't think they will let us take it out on the trail for a test drive.  @nexentireusa

We talk to Paul Jho, the Motorsports Senior Manager for @nexentireusa about Nexen being the official sponsor of The Trailchasers Podcast. Then, Cody tries to talk Matt and Jose out of joining the Storm Area 51 movement and I think it backfires on him.

We talk to the guys @syndicate.offroad about an event they have coming up @stonebrewing in Escondido. Then, Cody & Matt talk about how they are completely falling apart and we just just be put down. Seriously, how are we still alive?

As you know, Cody gets lost, a lot! So we had Erica Sacks on the show to try and fix what's wrong with him. Spoiler Alert, It didn't work. At least we get to hear the story of how Erica started racing with her dad and has earned her place in the offroad world. We also talk about her newest adventure, Waypoint Nav School, where she is teaching people like to Cody how to find themselves.

We discuss our installation of the @whiteknuckleoffroadproducts sliders on Jose's #80series #landcruiser. Then we talk about our trip from Pioneertown to Big Bear. Apparently, Cody didn't read his own itinerary and Jose tried to kill everyone.

This week, we look back on the start of Matt's path towards the Podcast Hall of Fame...from there, it's pretty much off the rails, as you would suspect.

Even though he didn't want to come home, Cody is back from vacation in Cabo. The guys get together on a quick video chat to discuss Cody's trip, our new Baja Guide, Luis, we say thank you to @mountain_hatch for the gracious support, and discuss the potential closure of #oceanodunes #pismobeach  

Cody and Jose speculate on what Matt had to do that was more important than recording the show. Then we talk about Father's Day, Why we got some crappy iTunes reviews, talk about some of the articles written about the show, and finally talk about a bunch of upcoming events in the offroad community.

After Matt makes it clear that he no longer wants to work with Cody, we discuss a topic sent in by a listener about going from a Wangler to something more economical. Then we talk to Melinda Raussell, Founder of the International Women's Motorsports Association @iwmanation
