Curious about RV life, jaw-dropping destinations, and why coffee and bourbon are central to camping? This week’s Exploring Washington State podcast delivers an unscripted chat between host Scott Cowan and RV enthusiast Brooks Smothers.


From navigating the Pacific Northwest’s unparalleled natural beauty to tackling the quirks of rolling earthquakes (a.k.a. RVs), Brooks shares why RVing is the ultimate ticket to adventure.


Dive into hilarious tales of RV maintenance (why do screws randomly appear?) and the life-changing discovery of a $17 bottle of bourbon. Get insider tips on hidden state park gems, the epic road trip that dethroned Highway 395, and a deep dive into the pros and cons of RV living—complete with musings about fifth wheels, cozy bunk beds, and the all-important travel ice machine.


But wait—there’s more! Brooks reveals how Banff left Glacier National Park feeling like second place, why Seattle’s RV show is a must-attend, and how RVing isn’t just about camping; it’s your passport to city escapes, snowboarding weekends, and even competitive cheerleading events. And for the coffee lovers? Tailgate brews with an AeroPress are just the beginning.
