Overland Journal Podcast host Scott Brady interviews Ant Austin of We Will Roam in Montana about balancing a tech career with long-term overland travel using remote work and contracting. They explore storytelling as the connection between tech, AI, and adventure, highlighting practical AI applications for creative organization while noting concerns over disclosure, scams, and Overland Collective’s stance against AI-generated editorial. Ant shares memories from a three-month Japanese journey in his 2011 VDJ78 Troopy, including a Land Cruiser community barbecue near Nagoya and Japan’s unique soundscape. He also reflects on pivotal Australian travels like the Telegraph Track, offering key lessons on slowing down, navigating high-stress encounters, and prioritizing clear communication and mental health during extended journeys.
