Kelsey sits down with Kelly from @have.kids.will.adventure to talk about her family of 5's week-long trip to Lima, Peru in February 2026. Looking for somewhere with warmer ocean water than New England in the winter, Kelly booked Lima on points without realizing just how much there would be to do with kids.In this episode, Kelly shares why her family skipped Machu Picchu this time and instead spent the week enjoying Lima as a destination all its own. They stayed in Miraflores, took surf lessons, made chocolate at a chocolate-making class, explored the city, watched stunning sunsets, and took a big day trip for penguins, sea lions, dune buggies, and sandboarding.Kelly also shares the real-life travel moments too, including a very long bus day, a VRBO elevator/key mishap, what it was like visiting Lima with kids ages 10, 8, and 5, and why Lima surprised them in the best way.This episode is available to watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@kelseygravesIf you'd like to share about your trip on the podcast, email me at: kelsey@triptalespodcast.comBuy Me A Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/kelseygravesFollow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kelsey_gravesFollow me on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mskelseygravesJoin us in the Trip Tales Podcast Community Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1323687329158879Mentioned in this episode:- Ride Safer Carseat Vest: https://amzn.to/49G9Ele- Machu Picchu- Miraflores- Parque Kennedy- Malecón de Miraflores (6-mile cliff top walking path)- Surfing lessons- ChocoMuseo - Chocolate Making Class- The Ballestas Islands - The Atacama Desert- Huacachina- Magic Water Circuit of the Reserve Park- Cabify = Uber- Huaca Pucllana Site Museum- Larco Museum- Park of the Legends Zoo

Liz Gunn speaks with Andrew Bridgen the day before his important defamation appeal hearing against former UK Health Secretary Matt Hancock. Bridgen outlines the status of the long-running case, including Hancock's admissions that the statements were defamatory, caused him serious harm, and that no defence of truth has been offered. The discussion covers the background — Bridgen's opposition to COVID vaccines for young children — the significance of the upcoming hearing at the Royal Courts of Justice, and the fact that it will be live-streamed.

TWR Wednesday | More Political Malarkey & The Myth of RecyclingOn this episode of The Whitfield Report, Sam Whitfield is joined by Max Sand for another round of political absurdity, media self-owns, and a deep dive into one of the most accepted “common sense” narratives in American life: recycling.First, Sam breaks down Nick Fuentes revealing that he is now left-wing — a moment that raises serious questions about whether he was ever actually interested in helping conservatives, or if the goal was always to poison the well, sabotage the right, and make serious political movements look radioactive by association.Then, Tucker Carlson manages to shoot himself in the proverbial foot during his appearance on a New York Times podcast, offering another example of how media figures can become trapped by their own contradictions, audiences, and personal mythologies.Later in the show, Max explains the greed, corruption, lobbying, and special interests behind many national, state, and local recycling initiatives. What most people were taught as a simple environmental good may actually be a tangled mess of political incentives, corporate marketing, municipal waste contracts, and feel-good public relations.It's politics, media manipulation, environmental mythology, and classic TWR Wednesday malarkey all in one episode.Please Support The Show:Sam's Substack: https://samwhitfield.substack.com/Rumble: https://rumble.com/user/TheWhitfieldReportWhitfield Report Guilded server: https://www.guilded.gg/r/zzzE8b61qR?i=AYwozWndSam's Amazon Author Page: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Sam-Whitfield/author/B00M1DNU88Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4DIcoDO0BIDyuH7SWIsAB8American Instinct Pulp Adventures: https://americaninstinct.substack.comBuy Me A Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/whitfieldreport

Andrew Bridgen, former UK MP and tireless campaigner for accountability, discusses his ongoing legal battle against Matt Hancock (former UK Health Secretary) over defamatory statements made during the COVID era, the suppression of vaccine injury data, and the shocking MHRA survey revealing that 1 in 7 participants experienced a severe adverse event from the COVID vaccines.He covers the deliberate destruction of UK energy security through net zero policies, the weaponisation of Lawfare against farmers and dissenters, and the failure of legacy media and institutions to protect the public. With elections approaching and public trust in government and media at rock bottom, Andrew calls for genuine opposition, transparency, and resistance to the uni-party system.Andrew Bridgen Meets Vaccine-Injured Actor & Writer Barry Duffield (2026): https://rumble.com/v73zkia-andrew-bridgen-meets-vaccine-injured-actor-barry-duffield.html?e9s=src_v1_cbl%2Csrc_v1_ucp_aAndrew Bridgen on X/Twitter - https://x.com/ABridgenAndrew Bridgen's website - https://abridgen.uk/fund-my-work/Support FreeNZ:Substack: https://freenz.substack.com/Locals: https://freenz.locals.comBuy Me A Coffee: www.buymeacoffee.com/supportfreenzKo-fi: https://ko-fi.com/freenzhttps://freenz.carrd.coAffiliates:Dioxi Care - Chlorine Dioxide based Oral Care, Skin Care & Veterinary & Wound Care: https://frontierpharm.com/?sca_ref=9717384.brQladA5pgSnoot Spray - Chlorine Dioxide based Nasal Cleaner: https://www.snootspray.com/?sca_ref=9667634.AV2NJQvGlTNavigate the matrix with this 2026 Year of the Fire Horse Numerology & Astrology Calendar: https://gumroad.com/a/809846675/itcfmgWide Awake Media - Freedom T-Shirts: https://wideawake.clothing/en-nz?sca_ref=9458851.1aXfjvGDqL

Liz Gunn speaks with Michael Yon, former Green Beret and global conflict analyst, and Masako Ganaha, Japanese researcher and translator, about the rapid closure of the world's critical shipping chokepoints. Michael's long-standing predictions that the US and Israel would close the Strait of Hormuz while blaming Iran have now materialised, with similar risks emerging for the Malacca and Singapore Straits, the Danish Strait, the Panama Canal, and others. They frame these events as part of a larger planetary agenda of engineered famine and mass depopulation through the deliberate restriction of energy, fertilizer, and food supplies.Masako Ganaha on X: https://x.com/ganaha_masakoMasako Ganaha on Substack: https://masakoganaha.substack.comMichael Yon Website: https://michaelyon.comMichael Yon on X: https://x.com/Michael_YonMichael Yon on Substack: https://michaelyon.substack.com/Health Ranger Report - The GLOBAL WAR to Shut Off Food, Industry and Energy to EXTERMINATE... - https://rumble.com/v78ftuw-the-global-war-to-shut-off-food-industry-and-energy-to-exterminate....html?e9s=src_v1_sa%2Csrc_v3_sa_o%2Csrc_v1_ucp_aSupport FreeNZ:Substack: https://freenz.substack.com/Locals: https://freenz.locals.comBuy Me A Coffee: www.buymeacoffee.com/supportfreenzKo-fi: https://ko-fi.com/freenzhttps://freenz.carrd.coAffiliates:Dioxi Care - Chlorine Dioxide based Oral Care, Skin Care & Veterinary & Wound Care: https://frontierpharm.com/?sca_ref=9717384.brQladA5pgSnoot Spray - Chlorine Dioxide based Nasal Cleaner: https://www.snootspray.com/?sca_ref=9667634.AV2NJQvGlTNavigate the matrix with this 2026 Year of the Fire Horse Numerology & Astrology Calendar: https://gumroad.com/a/809846675/itcfmgWide Awake Media - Freedom T-Shirts: https://wideawake.clothing/en-nz?sca_ref=9458851.1aXfjvGDqL

Kelsey chats with Jen (@diveintopoints on Instagram) from Wisconsin, who lives on a hobby farm with her husband and three kids (a 6 year old daughter and 4 year old twin boys). Jen, her family, and her parents headed to San Diego in October 2025 staying at the Hyatt Regency Mission Bay, booked on points.In this episode, Jen shares about the waterslides and pools their kids couldn't get enough of, plus beach time at Mission Beach, beautiful sunset views, and their favorite moments at SeaWorld and aboard the USS Midway. Quick note: our connection dropped at the very end of recording, so Jen's answer to the final Trip Tales question is here in the show notes. If someone out there is considering this trip, what is it about San Diego and the Hyatt Regency Mission Bay that would make you say: Just Book It?

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comFritz Springmeier is not merely a researcher; he is a living testament to the unbreakable human spirit. For over three decades, armed with nothing but relentless courage, a Bible, and an unshakable conviction that truth is worth any price, he has documented and exposed the most sophisticated system of human enslavement ever devised: Illuminati trauma-based, multi-generational mind control.His masterwork, How the Illuminati Create an Undetectable Total Mind Controlled Slave, is not a book; it is a rescue beacon. Written with former Illuminati programmer Cisco Wheeler, this monumental exposé is the only public document in history that lays bare the complete architecture of Project MONARCH and its parent programs. With clinical precision and compassionate clarity, Fritz handed the world the actual keys used to lock millions of souls in invisible cages and, more importantly, the keys to set them free. He did not speculate. He published the scripts. He reproduced the survivors' hand-drawn maps of their internal worlds. He named the programmers, the bases, the triggers, and the bloodlines. And then he taught therapists, pastors, and survivors how to dismantle the programming and restore the core person to freedom.The price he has paid has been prophetic in its cruelty. False charges, betrayal by former allies, abandonment by frightened churches, and finally a federal prison sentence that his supporters worldwide recognize as one of the clearest cases of state-sponsored neutralization in modern history. He has boldly declared, “If they can silence me, the information itself becomes the proof.”Today, the tide has turned. High-profile survivors are stepping forward with stories that match Fritz's work in exact detail. Declassified documents confirm the existence of the very programs he was mocked for exposing. Therapists who once dismissed him now use his deprogramming protocols and witness miracles of integration and healing. What the establishment branded “the ravings of a madman” is now acknowledged by thousands of healed survivors as the roadmap that gave them their lives back.Fritz did not fight for applause. He fought for the little girl chained in a cage who had no voice, for the boy forced to watch horrors no child should see, for every soul the world was trained to call “crazy” when they tried to speak the truth. He is living proof that one man, anchored in conscience and armed with truth, can shake the very foundations of hell itself. In a world engineered to keep its deepest crimes invisible, Fritz chose to become the light that could never be extinguishedHistory is being rewritten in real time, and he debt humanity owes him is beyond measure. Because of Fritz, the invisible chains are becoming visible, the undetectable is being detected, and the slaves are coming home. And the battle he began is now being finished by an army of awakened survivors who stand on his shoulders and declare with one voice: We remember. We are healing. We are free. And we will never be silent again. Thank you, Fritz. The truth you carried through the fire is now lighting the way for millions. Your work was never in vain. It was the turning point.ORDER FRITZ'S BOOKS: springmeiermessages@hotmail.com CONNECT WITH EMMA:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@imaginationpodcastofficialEMAIL: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.com OR standbysurvivors@protonmail.comBUY ME A COFFEE: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/theimaginationVENMO: @emmapreneurSupport the show

This trip was packed with coastal vibes and bucket-list stops — from three days on Block Island, a charming and approachable alternative to Nantucket, to a stop in Ogunquit, Maine for a private sailboat ride, to the show-stopping Bar Harbor Inn right at the edge of Acadia National Park.Danae gives us the scoop on ferries, family-friendly hikes, unforgettable seafood (lobster rolls, chowder, and fresh steamers!), and why Acadia's Great Head hike and Sand Beach were the highlight of the entire trip. You'll also hear why the Bar Harbor Inn blew her away with unexpected touches like homemade cookies, s'mores by the fire, and an infinity pool overlooking the ocean.This episode is available to watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@kelseygravesIf you'd like to share about your trip on the podcast, email me at: kelsey@triptalespodcast.comBuy Me A Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/kelseygravesFollow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kelsey_gravesMentioned in this episode:- Providence, Rhode Island - Point Judith Termindal | Block Island Ferry- Block Island AirBNB Rental: https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/52534528- Block Island hikes: Mohegan Bluffs, Rodman's Hollow- Block Island beaches: Andy's Way, Crescent Beach- Block Island restaurants: The Oar, The National, The Spring House Hotel- Block Island official drink: The Mudslide- Ogunquit: Anchorage by the Sea Hotel, Marginal Way, Barnacle Billy's- Boston and Newburyport, MA- Bar Harbor: The Bar Harbor Inn, Lunch (sandwich shop), Geddy's, Galyn's, Land Bridge Hike- 4th Grade National Park Pass- Acadia National Park: Sunrise at Cadillac Mountain.
