CT Perks and Recreation

CT Perks and Recreation™ is the official companion podcast for a brand new state rewards program. This monthly, story-driven podcast uncovers how much there is to do, taste, and explore in Connecticut, told from the perspective of a road trip with an enthusiastic friend who has strong opinions about snacks and side quests. Each episode follows a theme that shows you exciting places where you can earn double points through the rewards program, covering destinations ranging from farms, trails, bookstores, and theaters, to museums, campuses, or delightful local restaurants. Points are redeemable for experiences, merch, and more through the CT Perks website. Guiding the way, your host, local voice actor Amanda Elgie, talks with the makers and creators who fill these places with their personality, giving listeners both the story and the roadmap of how to experience it themselves. The show is a monthly invitation to fall in love with Connecticut, whether through cozy destinations full of local pride or cities full of adventure and magic. This is your chance to listen, learn, and earn points, all just a short drive away.
