The Thought Dawgs are at it again! They discuss fun words on “Word of The Week” like Bumfuzzle and Fuddy-Duddy. Troy and Spencer cover the segment “This or That??” where they choose the most desirable or the least less desirable options. Would you exchange time off your life for the power of flight or have super strength with the setback that your arms will grow longer each time you use your power? Troy challenges Spencer to his newest game “Higher, Lower, or ‘Oh yeah, I like Taco Bell'” which has Spencer challenging the belief that falling to the center of the Earth would take a lot longer than 19 minutes. They finish the episode with a “Draft” of ‘the best Thanksgiving foods'. Who do you think won the draft?? Let us know! Support the show

I love speaking with people who've made travel a central part of their life. Whether that's regular trips to various corners of the world, or in the case of today's guest, spending the last 20 years in near constant motion. Patrick Shulte, who has been blogging about his travel experiences on his long running travel blog Bumfuzzle.com, joins me just before setting off for his next adventure. Patrick isn't planning your regular international trip, however. Patrick and his wife are about to sail around the world for the second time - this time taking their two children along for the ride. I loved having this conversation, and I think you will too.

You visit a restaurant in a far-away city, only to find you're on the menu. When young backpackers go missing on the trail through Nepal, no one bats an eyelid. After-all, high in the Himalayan mountains, Kathmandu's a haven for those who want to “get lost.” Back in England, Leo's down on his luck. He's jobless, crippled by anxiety and obsessed with an ex-girlfriend he hasn't seen in years. Asked to track down a wealthy politician's daughter in Kathmandu, Leo thinks his fortunes are on the turn. Escaped from her family and travelling the world, all Allissa wants is to be left alone. Running a hostel for the victims of people traffickers, she hopes the surrounding mountains will keep the world away. In a bid to prove himself, Leo sets off on a twisting train through Kathmandu's labyrinthine streets. But, when the investigation leads to a sinister backstreet restaurant and a storm makes escape impossible, he may have bitten off more than he can chew.

Patrick Schulte is the creator of one of the oldest sailing blogs still active called Bumfuzzle. He turned a mini-retirement and youthful adventure into a lifestyle. Hear how he did this and how he funds his travel with options trading.
This episode is quite the tale of how to lead an adventurous life! We are talking a 4 year circumnavigation on a catamaran, van life from Alaska to Argentina and Europe, exploring Mexico on a monohull and enjoying the Caribbean on a trawler. We talk about all this and also what has made this possible, which happens to be expertise in stock trading. My guest is Patrick Schulte, who has been writing the Bumfuzzle blog for the better part of 20 years (!) and he also teaches trading to anyone who's interested on the Wanderer Financial platform. I was honestly curious about stock trading and how that actually works when you live on a sailboat so we start this episode by talking about this on a very basic level, and then we dive into the awesome adventures Pat and his family have done - and continue to do.

This week we're reading Bumfuzzle by Patrick Schulte, the true story of a couple that decided to throw their lives away and sail around the world for no reason at all.

Analog nomads . . . . . When I decided to focus on the Are vs Should Problem, or the struggle between the person you ARE and the person you feel like you SHOULD BE, I was thinking mostly about the SHOULD part. To me, the issue isn't so much about figuring out who we ARE, it's more about telling the SHOULDs to be quiet. And figuring out how to do that. The AREs are things we want to be, know we are, and find comfort in. The SHOULDs tend to be things we don't necessarily want to do or be, but feel (for varying reasons) that we are supposed to do or be. In the AVS interview series, I've talked to people across the spectrum of ARE to SHOULD. Most people talked about their struggles with the SHOULDs, even if they were/are currently living mostly in their ARE. I think most of us would rather be seen as living in our AREs, but few of us are doing it well. I think you will agree that Pat exemplifies what it looks like when you are minimally influenced by the status quo.Pat Schulte is someone I thought might not have much to say at all about the SHOULD, because it seems to me he, and his family, live primarily in their ARE.I knew about Pat, his wife Ali, and their two kids, through their blog called Bumfuzzle. I am interested in sailing, and as you may know my wife and I plan to move on to a sailboat at some point in the not-too-distant future. So I discovered Bumfuzzle as I searched for role models who had done similar, seemingly crazy, things.And if you didn't catch the word 'blog', let me mention that there are no videos nor audio on Bumfuzzle. It is a blog in the most classic, analog sense. Pat writes posts about their adventures. They are accompanied by excellent digital images, but that's as far as it goes with respect to the YouTube, Instagram world we live in. Nearly all of the other adventurer web pages feature video nowadays.But that doesn't detract from the Bumfuzzle story - it accentuates the coolness of it. The adventureness of it. The ARE of it.In short, Pat and Ali left the rat race as we know it in their late 20s and have not stopped in twenty years. Whether boat, car, motorhome, or camper trailer they have lived a nomadic lifestyle. They seem to go where they please, however they choose, at whatever pace they happen to take. It's the most carefree thing I can think of.Yet Pat holds a job, albeit one that allows him to work remotely, and they are not independently wealthy. They also have two kids along for the adventure. Their lives are far from easy, but they seem simple. They figured out what they wanted and made it happen.Which is why I like using the term analog to describe them - and Pat didn't seem to mind this term. They are like analog nomads. . . . Before KEW, reading their blog made me feel like I was watching Star Wars. It seemed like such a fantasy. But they are DOING IT. The live it. And they don't seem to be any worse for the wear. In fact, and you can see this in the interview, Pat seems so . . . . normal. So peaceful and calm. So centered. So wise. Maybe the AREness of their lifestyle isn't correlated to that vibe. But I'm going to argue it is.I find Bumfuzzle inspring. It is so important to have a mirror to reflect back to you the life you want. I hope the Schulte's adventures do this for you as they do for me. I hope you are inspired to live more in your ARE, and to make the sacrifices to do so knowing there is value there.

Pat Schulte, his wife Ali and 2 kids are officially the Bumfuzzle family adventuring the world for the last 15 years by land and by sea. They pulled the ripcord on their normal life 15 years ago. Back then, Pat was a stocks and commodities trader in Chicago working the trading pits and living the normal urban life in downtown Chicago but things started to change. Their friends started to move in the direction of buying a house in the suburbs and having kids but they weren't ready for that. So instead this Midwest couple came up with the idea to buy a sail boat and sail around the world. The problem was that neither one of them had ever step foot on a sail boat.
The team finds themselves embroiled in a street fight with mercenaries searching for Rami. Back at the Drift Rider, they find the goblins terrified of a ferocious beast who has boarded the ship.
