Overland Journal Podcast host Ashley Giordano welcomes back longtime contributor and former gear editor Graham Jackson as Overland Journal approaches its 20-year anniversary. Jackson recounts writing a major Issue 1 feature on nine months traveling in Africa, sharing how he compressed the journey into a story and persuaded his wife to join. He reflects on conducting data-driven gear reviews—including tie-down crash tests and rigorous water-filter evaluations—and discusses Overland Expo training, the founding of 7P, and producing a self-funded 2023 Belize conservation documentary. Defining overlanding versus expeditions, Jackson advocates minimal vehicle modifications and reliable recovery gear while sharing insights on stewardship.
