    JD is joined by Keenan Campbell, Nathan the unpaid intern aka MudhornGladiator, and Calvin from SRG Offroad for a post–Trail Hero debrief that’s equal parts laughter, trail tales, and behind-the-scenes insight. The crew swaps stories from Sand Mountain—including wild moments on East Rim, Double Sammy, and Triple 7s—and revisits highlights from Trail Hero Expeditions Episode 1 on Speed Sport 1. From broken sway bars and side-by-sides to concert critiques and bird-related mishaps, it’s a chaotic, hilarious recap of one of the biggest off-road events of the year.

    We Had To Call Matt's Offroad Recovery | Unfiltered | E123
    Oct 31 2025
    In this reflective episode of The Trailhead, JD and the crew address “The Incident,” an unexpected Jeep accident that tested everyone’s focus, teamwork, and community spirit. They open up about what happened, how they responded, and the outpouring of support that followed from fellow off-roaders. The team talks about how the Jeep was ultimately recovered by the famous Matt’s Off-Road Recovery, a reminder of the incredible network that exists within the off-road world. It’s a candid and heartfelt conversation that sheds light on safety, camaraderie, and how quickly the off-road family rallies when things go wrong. The team also talks about lessons learned on and off the trail, the gear that helped when it mattered most, and what comes next for the show.📍Trails and DestinationsSand Hollow State Park, Utah🛠️ Gear and ToolsTyri Offroad LightsMotobiltRock Hard 4x4PSC Motorsports SteeringRecovery Gear – Factor 55🚙 Community ShoutoutsJD: MeAndMyYellowJKPope & Randi: JemandtheMisfitAlyssa: HoldMyCoffee_AZBryan: Beatrice JKU the LunchboxNathan the unpaid intern aka MudhornGladiatorRich KleinTrail HeroMatt’s Off-Road Recovery🌎 Advocacy & ConservationBlueRibbon CoalitionUtah Public Lands Alliance (UPLA)📰 News TopicsTrail Hero Safety and Community ResponseSupporting Fellow Off-Roaders After IncidentsGear Essentials for Emergency Recovery📅 Events and ResourcesTrail Hero XEaster Jeep Safari (EJS) 2025All-4-Fun 2025📞 Get involved!Leave us a voicemail!

    Oct 23 2025

    This episode is a recap of and marks the show’s first major adventure — a five-day overland journey spanning Utah, Arizona, and Nevada following the recording of Trail Hero: Expeditions, a new offroad reality show. The crew reflects on what it took to pull off such a massive expedition from cast to crew, from long travel days and desert heat to the rewarding moments around camp. Listeners will hear stories of breathtaking sunrise views at the Grand Canyon, challanging moments, and the lessons learned while navigating new terrain. This episode captures our side of the Trail Hero Expeditions story — the behind-the-scenes chaos, the laughs, and the moments that tied it all together — before we hand the mic to the individual teams whose interviews will roll out over the coming weeks.
