Wandering Gypsy RV Life is your go-to podcast for all things RV living, adventure, and life on the open road. Hosted by Stan Cromlish, this show dives into the highs, lows, and unexpected moments of the RV lifestyle—from the first spark of wanderlust to the reality of full-time travel. Whether you’re a seasoned RVer or just dreaming of breaking free, tune in for stories, lessons, and insights on navigating life one highway at a time. Buckle up and join the journey—because the road is calling!
PRCA music director Kye Todd spends his summers going rodeo to rodeo, and this year he traded motel rooms for a used travel trailer. Sitting outside at Kick Back Ranch and Event Center, Kye and Stan talk about what that switch really looked like: a blowout on the maiden voyage, fiberglass issues, soft spots in the floor, and a bed lift that quit. They also talk about the best part, his wife Haylee riding along all summer and working from the road.
Kye shares hard-won lessons for anyone buying a used RV. Make the dealer put new tires on it. Push back when something isn’t right, because when you say “see you later,” they start dealing. And remember that tires can look decent and still be dry rotted from sitting in the sun, so check their age, not just the tread.
They also cover why Kye now trusts a TPMS that actually works, why he keeps his fresh tank full instead of trusting campground water pressure, and how a handful of motel nights can add up to a camper payment.
Plus, how Kye got into rodeo music, his fall run through Florida, and his advice for young rodeo hands: go learn from somebody who has been doing it.
