🎙️ RANDOM WAYPOINTS Podcast — Special Guest: Talon Sei (SEI Productions)
In this episode, we sit down with adventure filmmaker and YouTube creator Talon Sei to talk overlanding, van life, and life behind the lens. From rugged trails to race tracks, Talon shares what it's like producing content in the wild — and with VIP access at one of America’s biggest events: the Indy 500. We dive into his journey from everyday gearhead to building a media brand focused on EDC, vehicles, knives, and outdoor culture.
🛻 Topics Covered:
- Talon’s start in overlanding and how his content evolved
- Traveling and filming across the U.S. — including VIP all-access to the Indy 500
- The mission behind SEI Productions and inspiring adventure culture
- Van builds, gear reviews, and staying ready with EDC
- How brands and creators can collaborate with integrity in today’s media space
🔥 Plus, we dig into this week’s political tension:
- Trump deploys troops to handle L.A. ICE protests
- Governor Newsom’s sharp pushback
- Immigrants caught in the middle — used as pawns in a growing culture war
- And a surprising stat: Seattle now has the most male-skewed adult population of any major U.S. city — why it matters
