Hey everyone, treasure hunters and dirt fishers! Glenn here (aka Zeke) back with another quick recap as we roll into Round 3 of the new year. On January 3, 2026, I fired up the mobile setup once again for a live detecting session titled "Let’s Find More Stuff! #metaldetecting #mobile #livestream #irl".
Another Mobile Adventure in the Books
This stream was all about maintaining that early-year momentum: heading out with the detector, staying mobile, and digging whatever the ground decided to give up in real time. The #irl vibe delivered pure, unedited action—signals, swings, digs, and great live chat interaction. Thanks to everyone who tuned in; the views and likes are climbing steadily, which keeps the motivation high!
I hit some familiar spots hoping to build on the previous days, and while it wasn’t a banner day for silver or relics, we did pull some clad out of the dirt—and battled the usual trash suspects along the way.
Highlights from the Hunt
Three quarters – solid clad recovery!
One penny – every cent adds up to the 2026 totals.
And yes… lots of trash (pull tabs, foil, can slaw—the classics that keep us humble and our holes honest).
No big jewelry or old coins this time, but consistent hunts like this clear the junk and set the stage for future keepers. Plus, the live chat made it feel like a group dig—huge thanks to everyone who hung out!
Why Go Live?
Unpredictable Excitement: Anything can happen on the next beep.
Real Interaction: Viewer suggestions, encouragement, and shared stories make it feel like we’re hunting together.
Daily Inspiration: Perfect way to stay motivated and get out there regularly.
Glenn here (aka Zeke) with a quick recap of my second metal detecting adventure of the new year. On January 2, 2026, I went live once more for a mobile hunt titled “Let’s Find Something! LIVE”—and while the ground wasn't overflowing with gold, we still pulled some keepers out of the dirt!
The Hunt: Mobile Live Detecting in Action
This was another fun mobile livestream, taking the detector out to a familiar spot in hopes of kicking off the year strong. As always with live streams, it's all unscripted: the signals, the digs, the trash pulls, and those exciting moments when something good pops out. The chat was great (thanks to everyone who joined!), and even though views are still climbing (33 so far—early days!), it was a blast sharing the experience in real time.
The reality of metal detecting shone through today—lots of trash to sort through (pull tabs, foil, can slaw, you name it), but that's part of what makes the good finds feel so rewarding.
Today's Finds:
A cool pendant – definitely the highlight! It's got some nice detail.
One quarter – always nice to get some clad back.
Three pennies – adding to the coin count for 2026.
And... a whole lot of trash. (The usual suspects that keep us humble!)
No silver or relics this time, but every dig is practice, and getting out there consistently is what leads to those epic days.
Why These Live Streams Are Awesome
