This week on I Speak Jeep, we're switching gears! Neil is off the trail and on vacation, so instead of our usual crew in the studio, we're bringing you something special from the field. While at the Bantam Jeep Heritage Festival, we fired up the mics right from our booth and had the opportunity to sit down with some incredible guests who help make Bantam what it is.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• Rob Morgan of DaddyJeep Garage, who also serves as Bantam’s Trail Manager – we dive into what it takes to manage off-road trails and Rob’s passion for Jeeps and the community.
• A great conversation with the team from Crown Automotive – their dedication to the Jeep aftermarket shines through as we talk parts, heritage, and the future.
• And finally, Patti Jo, the Bantam Event Director, shares behind-the-scenes insights about planning one of the country’s premier Jeep events and what makes it so special year after year.

We’re grateful to have been a part of such an iconic event, and we hope this episode brings a piece of that energy and excitement straight to your speakers.

In this special episode, we’re joined by the legendary Jerry Huber — retired Plant Manager with a long and storied career at Ford Motor Company, American Motors, and Toledo Jeep. Jerry takes us on a journey through decades of automotive history, sharing rare insights from his time on the factory floor to the executive offices.

Now one of the key organizers behind Toledo Jeep Fest, Jerry offers a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to bring one of the biggest Jeep gatherings in the country to life. From the passion that fuels the event to the planning and legacy it represents, he pulls back the curtain on all things TJF.

We also dive into his personal Jeep collection, some of his favorite models, and the stories behind them. Whether you’re a Jeep history buff, an event enthusiast, or just love a good factory-floor story — this episode is packed with knowledge, nostalgia, and a whole lot of Jeep pride.

In this episode, Neil, Scott, and Jeff talk about insurance on your Jeep. They break down what it takes to deal with insurance claims and how a good off-road shop can help you navigate the process. Aftermarket parts are often a mystery to regular body shops and more often than not, off-road and custom shops have to get involved, so why not just start there.
