#93 Spotlights: Nathan Savka aka MudhornGladiator

In this episode of The Trailhead, JD sits down with Nathan—the unpaid intern and the show’s most dedicated voicemailer—for his official on-air debut. Broadcasting from Pennsylvania, Nathan opens up about his unique entry into the off-road world, beginning with a lifted Renegade, getting hooked at the Bantam Jeep Festival, and ultimately landing a pumpkin-orange Gladiator. They talk trail carnage, insurance surprises, and a terrifying vehicle fire that could have gone much worse. From sliders to Scrapple, this one's packed with humor, insight, and the kind of storytelling that reminds us why we love our listeners, and listeners turned guests.📍 Trails and DestinationsBen Franklin Range, PennsylvaniaAnthracite Outdoor Adventure Area (AOAA), Pennsylvania🔧 Gear and ToolsTeraflex 1.5” Lift KitAtturo Trail Blade TiresRock Hard 4x4 Frame-Mounted SlidersAutomotive Fire Extinguishers – First Alert🚙 Community ShoutoutsJD: MeAndMyYellowJK – https://www.instagram.com/me_and_my_yellow_jk/Nathan the unpaid intern aka MudhornGladiator – https://www.instagram.com/mudhorn_gladiator🌎 Advocacy & ConservationBlueRibbon Coalition📅 Events and ResourcesBantam Jeep Heritage Festival📞 Get involved!Leave us a voicemail!
