The Gear Patrol Podcast is our weekly roundtable discussion focused on products, their stories, and the culture surrounding them.


We begin with a discussion of the all-new, all-electric Ford F-150 Lightning pickup. Judging by the numbers, there’s no doubt that the Lightning is already a hit–but is its success a phenomenon or was it inevitable? Then, we announce the new Gear Patrol Library of Pursuits, a series of newsletter-based courses that are all but guaranteed to improve your life thanks to a boatload of expert advice. It’s a perfect pursuit for the new year.

Lastly, the New Year and… you! We asked our Instagram followers to submit their 2022 product resolutions: the gear goals you hope to achieve this year, whether that means upgrading, checking something off your grail list, a new purchasing behavior… sky’s the limit. Spoiler alert: we had a lot of great responses, so don’t miss out on our reactions and advice for everyone who wrote in.
