[@thebobdavispodcasts9768]

Thank you!!!

[@nomosnomosowicz7379]

Found your channel from Peter's video - loved this format.

[@joeygirl_]

Came here from Peter Santanela’s vlog!

[@OffGridTypeOfGuy]

I’ve been watching your channel for sometime now, hope to meet the both of you this winter.

[@Unibot47]

Saw you on Peter's channel. Used to do the van dwelling thing and considering goin back to it to get away from the abysmal housing costs. In southern AZ myself. Glad to have found your channel.

[@thebobdavispodcasts9768]

Thanks to Peter!!! Rent is crazy.

[@tonyjohansson2967]

Found you through Peter Santinello, love this 😊❤

[@mndawsonfam]

Just subscribed to Robert's youtube channel. Looking forward to content from him and also how he built out his trailer. Was a big fan of Bob's when he was on the radio in the Twin Cities.

[@darqnomad]

Thanks for the subscription. More content coming soon

[@AnasAdventures111]

I initially saw you “reprobates” 😂 on Peter’s channel and wondered if you two had survived another year together. I’m so happy you had him on, I really enjoyed him.

[@explorer867]

I enjoyed the podcast. 🤠👍

[@thebobdavispodcasts9768]

Glad to hear it!

[@theicangram]

“I can’t be in a house anymore!” I am there. I am back in a house right now and every single day I plan and dream of when I can be back out there with you all. Soon!!!

[@Morningdovecamp]

Thanks. I enjoyed the conversation. Enjoy 🏜️🚙

[@rayon3383]

First time watching your channel I really enjoyed everything! I have a question what is your guess of the percentage of people that actually detect for gold when they are their? Thanks I am glad I found your channel!

[@thebobdavispodcasts9768]

You mean people who are 'there'? A small percentage are prospectors. Most of those guys are out at Dome.

[@2SistersWandering]

I'm very new to this lifestyle, but really enjoying it so far. I did move to Tyson from the non ltva though, since I have to be close to a bathroom. I'm hoping to be able to make some friends and get to know some people down here. So happy not to be in the Ontario snow. Lol.

[@thebobdavispodcasts9768]

Welcome aboard!

[@brettlewis7332]

Regarding the million people I heard it as during the season a million people will pass through Quartzsite which sounds reasonable. Thanks Bob and Robert for a great show

[@thebobdavispodcasts9768]

That’s a far cry from a million campers some people are saying. And thanks for checking us out.

[@billhillegass946]

Seem like I worked with Robert a long time ago in Maryland, his voice and appearance rings a bell . Great video regardless .

[@einnockate]

Have you considered video recording the podcasts and posting it on youtube? ( im new to yiur channel)

[@thebobdavispodcasts9768]

I do audio podcasts and videos. Different content, different platforms. I addressed this in a previous podcast. Essentially they are both podcasts. Why have microphones in your face just to look cool?

[@Eph1-4]

Hi! I’m planning on taking some online courses while I am down there this coming season. What do you all recommend I have for internet to make sure I can turn in assignments etc?

[@thebobdavispodcasts9768]

I don’t get it.

[@mikestirewalt5193]

On one of the 17 nice days per year there at Quartzite. Why can't this place be in Cape Province, South Africa?

[@thebobdavispodcasts9768]

You’re crazy. There are many, many perfect days.

[@mikestirewalt5193]

I know. Cape Province.@@thebobdavispodcasts9768

[@ZiggZagg11]

I spent last summer in my camper... in the driveway... at my own home... I just didn't want to spend time in there... Going to my real bathroom and real shower was nice though... And occasionally I would cook in the kitchen (and use the dishwasher)... But I never slept a night in the house... I come home to basically mow and take care of the yard... I would probably go full time, except home ownership is such a hard thing to achieve now days with the high prices and interest rates... I hang onto it (it is the family home) because I know I will eventually get old and may not be able to do this lifestyle anymore...

[@thebobdavispodcasts9768]

Love it!!!

[@kelleyrancher]

Yes you know the way things are now if you give up your Sticks and Bricks home chances are you might not get the opportunity ever to have another one

[@brianorella6086]

it is 180 dollars for 6 months at LTVA areas, Where would a person stay the other 6 months in that area, give me some ideas please, yours truly stubby

[@thebobdavispodcasts9768]

You can stay on ten day areas for nothing. But you have to move every couple of weeks. No garbage service or toilets. I don’t see how 180 dollars from September to April is a problem. Think about it.

[@Zealor365]

The overflowing dumpsters are a clear indication that we have TOO many people here already. I'm camping 10 miles northeast on the road to "blank" and there are way more campers than last year.

[@thebobdavispodcasts9768]

Or so goes the rumor. It may have also been due to this location being simply more convenient and the lack of four dumpsters. We’ll see. We don’t feel it’s that crowded down here.

[@theturnersontheroad4537]

I just discovered Dark Nomad with a video from a year ago. Good to see ya back in Quartzsite. We are in Arkansas right now but expect to be in Quartzsite in January

[@LisaBergen-rx8ew]

Can we come visit?

[@thebobdavispodcasts9768]

Where are you now?

[@LisaBergen-rx8ew]

@@thebobdavispodcasts9768 we are in Canada. Not coming now but maybe sometime in the future.

[@thebobdavispodcasts9768]

Canadians are welcome!!!

[@JonHassellProphecy]

can i sell wood from my campsite down there?

[@Zealor365]

as long as it is local. non local wood brings invasive species of insects and causes problems. Don't let the stormtroopers catch you selling without a permit.

Starlink.....problem solved....Cheers

If the garbage is out of control what's that

[@thebobdavispodcasts9768]

What’s that what?

[@theicangram]

I actually like Imperial Dam better.

[@thebobdavispodcasts9768]

Did they fix the water there yet?

[@theicangram]

@@thebobdavispodcasts9768 Hmmm..... Not sure about that. I haven't been over there for a year.

[@watching-and-judging-you]

I won’t watch the movie. I felt from seeing the trailer, and the fact that it was glorifying Bob W, that it was offering an unrealistic expectation to unknowing individuals looking to explore the nomad life.

[@thebobdavispodcasts9768]

We agree

[@jasonthemason1971]

I paid $470 - Shipped for a Starlink package on eBay. Saw them at Best Buy recently and they were $599. Just going to activate and use it when needed. If I head out there in January, I’m going to bring the title of my ambulance rv. Just in case I’m not into it, I’ll sell the vehicle and fly home. Ship back my personal stuff.

[@adamstevenson2485]

I found you guys watching another guys video today. I live just outside of Greenville Tx. I own a small business working in construction. I’ve been in it for 30 years. I’m so tired of the go go go and the stress. Watching and listening to you guys has really got my brain churning. Y’all talk a lot about freedom which is a dream come true but I’m also waiting to escape the stress also. I’m surely jealous of you guys but As of now I’m trying to figure out how to join you 🥹

[@thebobdavispodcasts9768]

Come on out!
