Think about the last time you were driving down the highway in your RV or tow vehicle. Was the radio on—or were you listening to a podcast? For today’s poll, we want to know: How often do you listen to an RV podcast? And yes, we’re asking specifically about RV podcasts.
For some of you, podcasts have become a regular part of travel days. Long stretches of highway feel shorter when you’re listening to conversations about camping, gear, destinations, and life on the road. It can almost feel like riding along with a group of fellow RVers swapping stories and advice.
There are quite a few RV-focused podcasts out there now. Shows like RV Miles, The RV Podcast with Mike and Jennifer Wendland, and RV Life Podcast have built loyal audiences by talking about RV travel, industry news, campground experiences, and practical tips for life on the road. For many RVers, they’ve become part of the road-trip soundtrack.
Others listen only occasionally. Maybe you tune in when a topic catches your interest or when you’re heading out on a longer drive. And, of course, some of you don’t listen to podcasts at all—you’d rather have music playing, enjoy the quiet, or just focus on the road ahead.
We happen to love Tony and Peggy’s StressLess Camping podcast, but what can we say? We love everything about those two!
Oh, and catch Chuck Woodbury in tomorrow’s Sunday newsletter, where he tells you about his recent time on Mike and Jennifer Wendland’s podcast.
So what about you? How often do you listen to an RV podcast? Go ahead and vote in today’s poll—and if you have a favorite show, feel free to mention it in the comments.

I used to listen to them all the time, when I was still working and beginning our RV life. I’m retired now and have an RV that I hope will serve us until we can no longer RV. My obsession to devour RV content has dwindled along with time in the car to listen to the podcasts. Instead I now follow some YouTube channels.
YouTube for information. No podcasts yet.
Never listened to any podcasts.
I don’t listen to any Podcasts and YouTube Live either.
I have RVtravel.com and YouTube. That covers what I need.
I answered ‘never’ and that also applies to the YouTube offerings.
I prefer to read an article than to listen to a pod cast. I have tried to listen to a few pod casts but I find them going to slow over the information. I can read a lot faster than they can talk.
Never listened but will check out your suggestions. I enjoy listening to music or audio books.
Whats a Podcast
Exactly James, I would also like to know. You hear the word everywhere but it means nothing to me.
Essentially it’s like a radio talk show but generally more focused. You would listen on your smart phone but more and more vehicles incorporate a way to listen to podcasts through things like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. There are a number of RV-focused podcasts out there with some more targeted in their focus than others. Here’s more info to answer “what is a podcast.”
I have no idea how to listen to a podcast in the motorhome or at home. When younger we listened to books on tape (yes, tape). They are on DVDs now. I can play them but now that I am older it is more important to concentrate on driving than listening to anything with the exception of our now outdated Rand McNally GPS verbal instructions.
I prefer listening to audio books and music, podcasts to me are boring.
Aw, shucks, we’re so honored that you mentioned us – we love you right back.
There are a number of good podcasts out there with some great information including RVMiles with Jason & Abby, Jenn & Mike’s RV Podcast, Girl Camper and The RV Atlas among others.
