Ep40 - Slipping Gears and Secret Tunnels

Ep41 - Floating Freedom

In this episode, we interview an adventurous retired couple who traded traditional life on land for full-time life aboard a sailboat. While they joined us from Greece and we recorded from Canada, we talked about what it really means to live on the ocean — from learning to sail, provisioning, weather, maintenance, close calls, medical concerns, and navigating around massive ships, to marriage, teamwork, fitness, and finding freedom after retirement. Their story is about more than sailing; it’s about reinvention, courage, and choosing a life of adventure with the ocean as home.

Ep40 - Slipping Gears and Secret Tunnels

Join us as we take listeners on a whimsical, nomadic trekacross the Midwest, navigating everything from a "catastrophic" water main break in historic Galena to a transmission-slipping scare in Chicago. Their journey blends deep dives into 19th-century architecture and dark legends of secret tunnels with humorous observations on "sarcastic" kitchenettes, "terrifying" river fish, and the vibrant tulip fields of Holland, Michigan. Between segments on "Big Hair Friday" experiments and the etiquette of baseball hats in steakhouses, they find beauty in the rolling "Driftless Area" and the idyllic, golf-centric lake communities of Stanwood, all while their dog, Django, expertly adapts to life on the road.

Ep39 - The Old Mississip!

Follow us as we continue north from Sioux Falls to beautiful La Crosse, Wisconsin. We wander the almost empty streets of this historic town while the temperature falls from 80 degrees to 20 degrees in an hour. And what is that loud siren? Small trigger warning for sexual abuse discussion.

Ep38 - North, the long way

This episode brought to you by all the small country roads that somehow earned a highway label. We take the long way from Oregon counterclockwise through the USA to Canada. We discuss living on the road, people watching, and experiencing the small nuances brought to you by the backroads. We hope you enjoy our meandering.

Ep37-Seven Days at Sea

We flew to the wrong island… and it turned into one of the best weeks of our lives. Seven days on a dive boat, exploring reefs, meeting amazing people, and making memories that hit different. This one’s loaded with videos and photos—throw it on your big screen and come along with us.
