Welcome to Just a Bit of Banter — a laid-back podcast where we chat all things camping, 4WD adventures, gear, stories from the tracks, and whatever else pops up around the campfire.
If you love the outdoors, good laughs and easygoing conversation, you’re in the right place.
Follow and join the banter!
The dynamic duo of Andy & Gav are back!
We might of been in different locations but we almost made it work faultlessly!
We pretty much stuck to plan even in the rain.

DRIFTA Update! GVM Upgrades, Hipcamp Fees & a Bit of Banter
We're back - Well almost! Sorry for the week delay, things have been a bit chaotic to say the least!
Join Gav, Lee & I as we have a bit of a chat at camp. It was a bit off the cuff so didn't quite follow our normal segments.

Creative Conversions Shuts Down + Are We Losing Our Nav Skills?
Welcome back to Just a Bit of Banter, the camping and 4WD podcast brought to you by Andy's Adventures and Not Lost Honest. Grab a drink, sit back, and let's get into it.
This episode Andy and Gav get stuck into two fireside banter topics:
"Stretching the Facts" – the news of Creative Conversions closing its doors, and why its happened, the American full size ute market over here.?
"Am I Lost?" – are we all leaning on GPS and mapping apps so hard that we're losing our old-school navigation skills? Andy and Gav swap stories and stir the pot.
