Podcasts about Royal Caribbean

The gang is back! This week on Five's a Crowd, I am sharing the wild story of my recent anniversary cruise to Cozumel with Jess. What was supposed to be a relaxing Western Caribbean getaway turned completely chaotic when a medical emergency forced our massive ship to turn around—and exposed a blatant lie about a secret helipad. We also dive into the terrifying feeling of a mega-cruise losing power in the pitch-black ocean, the infamous 2013 "poop cruise" disaster, and the wild reality of K-Pop's global dominance.Thank you for being part of this crowd!You've got burning questions, we've got answers!

This week Andrew talks with international magician & escape artist Matt Johnson. In 2018, Matt stunned the world with his death-defying escape from a locked & chained water-filled tank on Britain's Got Talent. That moment, which has now been viewed over 500 million times, was the result of decades of hard work and catapulted Matt's career to new heights. Matt has appeared on numerous TV shows, toured with The Illusionists, performed on Broadway, & headlines on both Celebrity & Royal Caribbean cruise ships. In this conversation, Matt shares some of the most powerful ideas he's learned on his journey. This episode is about so much more than magic — it's filled with actionable lessons on developing creative ideas, differentiating yourself authentically, bouncing back when adversity strikes, & so much more. ** Follow Andrew **Instagram: @AndrewMoses123X: @andrewhmosesSign up for e-mails to keep up with the podcast at everybodypullsthetarp.com/newsletterDISCLAIMER: This podcast is solely for educational & entertainment purposes.

In Part 2 of Murder: True Crime Stories, host Carter Roy continues the investigation into the 1998 disappearance of 23-year-old Amy Bradley from a Royal Caribbean cruise ship. Multiple witnesses claimed to have seen Amy alive across the Caribbean in the years that followed, but every lead ran cold, and a con man posing as a Special Forces operative bilked her family out of more than $200,000. Decades later, the Bradleys still believe Amy is out there, and they're still waiting for the day she comes home.

In March 1998, 23-year-old Amy Bradley boarded a Royal Caribbean cruise ship in San Juan, Puerto Rico, with her family, and vanished without a trace three days into the voyage. When her father checked the balcony at dawn, her shoes and shirt were still in the cabin, but Amy was gone. In Part 1 of Murder: True Crime Stories, host Carter Roy traces Amy's life in Virginia, the night she disappeared, and the investigation that quickly stalled in international waters.

Operation Tidal Wave was a coordinated federal action in which CBP and HSI agents boarded eight cruise ships docked in San Diego and detained 27 crew members allegedly connected to CSAM — child sexual abuse material — based on intelligence provided by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. Agents had identified targets before the vessels arrived. Ten reportedly served aboard the Disney Magic. Four were employed by Holland America. All 27 were deported within approximately two weeks. KPBS confirmed that as of their reporting, federal prosecutors in both the Southern District of California and the Central District of California had no record of charges filed against any of the detained crew.The absence of prosecution raises a procedural question with systemic implications: if deportation without criminal proceedings is the default federal response, no public record is created, no registry entry is generated, and no mechanism exists to prevent the same individuals from being rehired through the same third-party agencies that placed them originally.The prosecuted cases across the industry illustrate what the screening system is failing to catch. A Royal Caribbean cabin attendant was sentenced to 30 years after pleading guilty to placing hidden recording devices in passenger cabins — families with passengers as young as two were among those secretly recorded. A Celebrity Cruises youth program counselor allegedly went undetected for four months while deliberately avoiding security cameras, according to an FBI affidavit. A 6-year-old passenger was the one who reported it. Two Princess Cruises employees received a combined 45 years for pursuing a teenager and exchanging illegal material involving very young children. Three crew members were charged aboard the same Disney vessel within a two-month window.Cruise Law News reports approximately 200 crew accused within roughly two years. Federal court filings and DOJ records document the same structural pattern across Disney, Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, Princess, Carnival, and Holland America: international hiring through third-party staffing agencies with limited background verification and no industry-wide shared registry.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Federal agents had names before the ships docked. Operation Tidal Wave targeted 27 crew members across eight cruise ships in San Diego based on intelligence from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. CBP and HSI coordinated the boarding. Every one of the 27 was detained. Every one was deported. Not a single charge was filed. KPBS confirmed federal prosecutors in both San Diego and Los Angeles had no record of prosecution as of their reporting. One passenger on the Disney Magic watched her family's dining host get taken away in handcuffs, still in his blazer, forty-five minutes after serving them breakfast.Disney's response was a zero-tolerance statement. What went unaddressed is the screening pipeline — how these individuals were hired, vetted, and placed on ships carrying families. Ten of the 27 reportedly worked on the Disney Magic alone. Four came from Holland America.That gap in the system isn't isolated. Federal court filings and FBI affidavits document a pattern spanning every major cruise line. A Royal Caribbean attendant was sentenced to 30 years after pleading guilty to placing hidden devices in passenger cabins to secretly record families — including passengers as young as two. A Celebrity kids' club counselor allegedly went undetected for four months while deliberately avoiding ship cameras, according to the FBI. A 6-year-old was the one who reported it. Two Princess crew members received a combined 45 years after pursuing a teenager and exchanging illegal content involving very young children. Three crew were charged on the same Disney ship within two months. According to Cruise Law News, nearly 200 crew have been accused in approximately two years. The connecting thread is structural: international crew hired through third-party agencies with limited screening, no shared offender registry, and identical corporate language from every company named.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

A mother on the Disney Magic watched her family's personal dining host get loaded into a white van in handcuffs — still in his blazer — forty-five minutes after he served them breakfast. For two weeks, the public assumed it was an immigration sweep. It was not.Operation Tidal Wave was a coordinated federal action. CBP and HSI boarded eight ships docked in San Diego and detained 27 crew members allegedly connected to CSAM, based on intelligence from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. Agents had names before the ships arrived. Ten reportedly worked on the Disney Magic. Four came from Holland America. All 27 were deported. KPBS confirmed that no charges were filed by federal prosecutors in San Diego or Los Angeles as of their reporting. Every one of them left the country without facing a courtroom.The behavioral question is what that pattern enables. If detention and deportation is the endpoint — no prosecution, no public record, no registry — then the system that failed to screen these individuals also fails to track them once they're gone. And the cases that did reach prosecution tell you what's at stake. A Royal Caribbean attendant sentenced to 30 years for secretly recording families in their cabins — passengers as young as two. A Celebrity kids' club counselor who allegedly avoided cameras for four months until a 6-year-old reported it. Two Princess employees sentenced to a combined 45 years. Three crew charged on the same Disney ship in two months.According to Cruise Law News, nearly 200 crew have been accused in approximately two years. Federal filings expose the same structural failure across Disney, Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, Princess, Carnival, and Holland America: third-party hiring agencies, limited screening, no shared registry.

The FBI's former Deputy Director walked out of federal service and into Royal Caribbean within days. A former Coast Guard officer joined CLIA as their regulatory chief. The industry has spent an estimated $70 million lobbying Congress. This is how the rules stay the way they are. Foreign-flag registration shields the industry from U.S. taxes and jurisdiction simultaneously. The CVSSA created a reporting floor and nothing else. The industry fought even that. This final episode of Cruising with Predators lays out the concrete reforms: device screening, an international registry, prosecution before deportation, independent investigations, ending NDAs in cases involving minors, and licensing standards for youth programs. Each one is tied to a case from the series. Each one would have changed an outcome. The system was designed. It can be redesigned. But only if families demand it.

The revolving door. The lobbying. The foreign flags. The NDAs. This final episode follows the money and names the machine that keeps the cruise industry insulated from accountability. A former FBI Deputy Director started at Royal Caribbean three days after retiring. A former Coast Guard officer joined the industry's trade group. Over $70 million spent lobbying Congress since 1997. The CVSSA was weakened before passage. Ships register abroad to avoid taxes and dilute jurisdiction. Settlements come with NDAs. Then the reforms advocates and maritime attorneys have called for: mandatory device screening, an international offender registry, prosecution before deportation, independent investigations, an end to NDAs involving minors, and youth program standards. Each reform tied to a case from the series.

When most people think about cruising, they picture the Caribbean, Alaska, or the Mediterranean. But what if the journey itself became the destination?In this episode of All Things Travel, Ryan and Julie dive into the unique world of transatlantic cruising — those longer, slower-paced sailings that cross the Atlantic Ocean while offering the chance to truly settle into life at sea.They discuss what makes these cruises so appealing, from relaxing sea days and incredible onboard experiences to surprisingly affordable pricing and the opportunity to combine ocean crossing with a Mediterranean adventure. Along the way, they break down who these cruises are best suited for, important things to consider before booking, and why seasoned cruisers often fall in love with this style of travel.The episode also features a sample 14-night itinerary aboard Royal Caribbean's Odyssey of the Seas, sailing from New Jersey to Rome with stops in the Azores, Spain, and Italy. From volcanic landscapes and ancient Roman ruins to Barcelona's vibrant culture and Tuscany's rolling countryside, this itinerary showcases how a transatlantic cruise blends immersive exploration with relaxed luxury.Plus, Ryan shares details about an upcoming Rocky Mountaineer journey through the American Southwest and the Mighty Five National Parks — a trip filled with dramatic landscapes, iconic train travel, and unforgettable scenery.Whether you're dreaming about Europe, curious about repositioning cruises, or simply looking for a more relaxed style of vacation, this episode will help you decide if a transatlantic cruise belongs on your travel wish list.Ready to start planning your next adventure?

Muy buenos días, General Motors aumentará la producción de autos en México.

De inversión estrella a proyecto frenado. De anuncio de desarrollo a caso emblemático de presión ambiental.

Federal filings show three crew members charged on the Disney Dream in early 2024. A Royal Caribbean cabin attendant sentenced to 30 years after pleading guilty to secretly recording passengers as young as two inside their cabins. An FBI affidavit describing a Celebrity youth counselor who allegedly targeted children for four months while avoiding security cameras. A 6-year-old was the one who put a stop to it. Two Princess employees sentenced to a combined 45 years for grooming a teenager and exchanging exploitation material depicting very young children. This is the episode that connects the cases the cruise industry has never been forced to address together: Disney, Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, Princess, Carnival, Holland America. Year after year. Ship after ship. Same pattern: crew hired internationally through third-party agencies, screened only against home-country records, no shared offender database. Cruise Law News reports nearly 200 crew accused of possessing CSAM in roughly two years.

According to federal court filings, three crew members on a single Disney ship were charged in early 2024 — all allegedly carrying exploitation material on personal devices. A Royal Caribbean attendant pled guilty to secretly recording passengers including children as young as two inside their cabins. Sentenced to 30 years. On Celebrity, according to the FBI, a youth counselor allegedly targeted multiple children over four months while avoiding cameras. Two Princess crew members received a combined 45 years for grooming a teenager and exchanging material depicting the exploitation of very young children. Carnival leads in reported assault allegations. Holland America had four crew detained in San Diego. Every major cruise line. Every year. The same pattern: crew hired through third-party agencies, limited background checks, no shared offender registry, and identical corporate statements after every arrest. Nearly 200 crew accused in approximately two years according to Cruise Law News. This is Cruising with Predators, a Hidden Killers investigation into the case files the industry hoped would stay separate.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

One Disney ship. Three crew charged. Two months. That is just the opening page. A Royal Caribbean attendant sentenced to 30 years for secretly recording families inside their cabins. A Celebrity youth counselor who allegedly targeted children for months according to the FBI. Two Princess employees sentenced to a combined 45 years. Carnival leading all operators in reported assault allegations. This is where the scope becomes undeniable. The documented cases from federal filings, DOJ press releases, and FBI affidavits expose a pattern across Disney, Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, Princess, Carnival, and Holland America. The detection system is not the cruise lines — it is CBP at the border and NCMEC flagging material on tech platforms. Nearly 200 crew accused in approximately two years according to Cruise Law News. If those are the ones caught, how many are still at sea?

Vanished at sea. In 1998, 23-year-old Amy Lynn Bradley disappeared from a Royal Caribbean cruise ship near Curaçao, stepping out of her cabin in the early morning hours and seemingly into thin air. Friends and family reported later sightings in tourist areas and even red-light districts, adding a chilling layer of possible trafficking and captivity to this already haunting mystery. On this episode of Unsolved Mysteries Rewind, Mark welcomes Suzann as they do a deep, eerie dive into Amy's last known movements, the strange delays in the ship's search, and the disturbing theories that still linger. Was Amy taken, silenced, or swallowed by something far more sinister at sea? Subscribe, leave a review, and tell a friend who loves unsettling true crime stories—then listen with the lights low.

This week on the Geekin' on Walt Disney World Podcast, we're lacing up the running shoes, grabbing a beignet, and heading into a Disney trip that started with runDisney Springtime Surprise weekend — but quickly became about so much more than miles and medals. Curtis is joined by three Geekin' family favorites — Holly, Laura, and Heidi — for a fun, relaxed, and very Disney Geek-style trip report filled with race stories, resort time, lounges, surprise meetups, food talk, cruise talk, and one unforgettable green wig. Because when Holly shows up dressed as Disgust from Inside Out for a runDisney race, you know we're off to a good start. Planning Your Next Disney Adventure? If you're thinking about planning your next Disney vacation and some Epic Universe… My wife Margita and our good friend Auntie Judy are the Travelin' Tiaras — your trusted Disney travel planners. Whether you're booking Walt Disney World, Disneyland, Disney Cruise Line, Universal, or beyond… They'll help you plan a smart, stress-free vacation from start to finish. Already booked? You can transfer your reservation to us and still get expert tips, strategy, and support — and it's a great way to support the show. TravelinTiaras@gmail.com Or reach out on Facebook Messenger. And right now… there are great opportunities for upcoming travel, so it's a perfect time to start planning. Featuring This Week This episode includes: Holly, Laura, and Heidi sharing their runDisney Springtime Surprise weekend A stay at Coronado Springs and a solo stay at Port Orleans French Quarter A 10-miler, a 10K, costumes, character stops, and race-day nerves Surprise Geek meetups with Samantha, Selena, Tori, Joe, and more Food and drink stops at Le Cellier, Nomad Lounge, GEO-82, Beak and Barrel, Homecoming, and Sangria University Flower and Garden Festival bites, beignets, maple popcorn, and more Thoughts on newer Disney experiences like the Zootopia show, updated Buzz Lightyear, and Beak and Barrel A bonus cruise recap aboard Royal Caribbean's Utopia of the Seas RunDisney, Beignets, and Green Hair The episode kicks off with Holly wearing the green wig she used for her Disgust costume during the Springtime Surprise 10-Miler — which pretty much sets the tone for the whole conversation. Holly shares that she went into the race under-trained because of a shoulder injury and made it all the way to mile nine before being swept. But what stands out is her perspective. She knew it might happen, she pushed as far as she could, and she still came away with pride, humor, and yes… the medal. Laura brings the solo-trip energy with a stay at Port Orleans French Quarter, where she enjoyed a slower pace, pool time, peaceful resort moments, and plenty of beignets. She also shares one of the funniest race moments: dressing as a bee for the Winnie the Pooh-themed 10K and trying to drink yellow Gatorade from a hard plastic honey bear bottle mid-race. That's runDisney dedication right there. Heidi took a more relaxed race approach — stopping for characters, enjoying the course, and making memories along the way. Her character stops included Nick and Judy from Zootopia, Boba Fett, Woody and Bo Peep, and Bing Bong. Some people chase personal records. Some people chase character photos. Both are absolutely valid. The Geekin' Family Shows Up One of the best parts of this episode is how the Geekin' family keeps popping into the trip. Holly and Corey meet up with Tori and Joe at Yeehaw Bob over at Port Orleans Riverside — and then get surprised when Samantha and Selena walk in. Later, Heidi gets her own surprise. And Laura talks about that feeling of traveling solo, making it through the expo chaos, and then suddenly seeing “her people” at Nomad Lounge. That's the heart of this episode. Yes, it's a trip report. But underneath the races, snacks, lounges, and Disney details is that bigger feeling we talk about all the time: Disney is better when you've found your people. Food, Lounges, and Disney Geek Favorites Of course, this wouldn't be a Geekin' trip report without food. Holly and Corey enjoyed Le Cellier, including cheddar cheese soup, pretzel bread, filet, and an ice wine flight. Laura sampled tanghulu at the China booth, maple popcorn in Canada, jambalaya at French Quarter, and the crème brûlée croissant at Gaston's. Heidi had several Flower and Garden Festival hits, including duck in France, Caribbean-style chicken, flan, and a fish slider. The lounge talk is strong in this one too. Nomad Lounge remains a Geek favorite for its cozy seating, small plates, drinks, and Animal Kingdom atmosphere. GEO-82 gets praise for cocktails and mushroom flatbread. And Beak and Barrel sparks a fun comparison to Oga's Cantina and Trader Sam's — lots to look at, some cool effects, and maybe one of those places that grows on you over time. New Disney Experiences and a Cruise Bonus The group also shares thoughts on a few newer Disney experiences. Heidi talks about the new Zootopia show at Animal Kingdom and whether it really fits the deeper theme of the park. Laura gives her take on the updated Buzz Lightyear, including the new removable blasters and the joy of feeling like a Space Ranger… even when the score says otherwise. And after the Disney portion of the trip, Holly, Corey, Heidi, and Missy headed out on Royal Caribbean's Utopia of the Seas for a four-night cruise — complete with big-ship entertainment, shows, skating, surfing, ziplining, and a water show set to '80s music. The Real Heart of the Episode The best part of this conversation is not just the race. It's not just the snacks. It's not just the lounges. It's the people. It's the surprise visits. It's the inside jokes. It's the ride photos. It's that feeling of seeing friends you may only get to see a few times a year — but when you do, it feels like a reunion. That's the Geekin' family. And that's why these trip reports always mean a little more than just “here's what we did.” They're stories about connection.

Stay for the beignets, lounges, Flower and Garden snacks, surprise Geek meetups, and one very committed green-haired Disgust costume.

This week on The Necessary Conversation, Bob is still out dealing with some medical issues so Mary Lou, Chad and Haley hold down the fort and discuss:

A cruise ship can feel like a floating city, but it gets a lot smaller when you spot your people. We're back with the full recap of the inaugural Rise and Run cruise aboard Royal Caribbean's Utopia of the Seas, and we're sharing what surprised us, what we'd do differently, and the moments that turned a trip into a four-night running community meetup.We talk through the send-off at Pop Century (yes, Pluto shows up), the bus ride to port, and that first step onto a ship that feels more like Vegas than a quiet getaway. Then we get into the practical stuff you'll actually want if you're planning a cruise: buffet and crowd strategy on embarkation day, how the muster drill works on Royal, where to find calmer adult-only spaces like the Solarium Bistro, and what a sail away party is like when it's loud, long, and unapologetically high energy.From there, it's the good stuff: our group cruise run on the Deck 5 track (wind tunnels included), Nassau choices and the Royal Beach Club reality check when the weather doesn't cooperate, a medaling celebration inside the Pesky Parrot tiki bar, and the Aqua 80s show that had us talking long after curtain call. We also share what it's like to record a live podcast on a ship, plus the onboard chaos of Price Is Right Live and an escape room win.We wrap with Perfect Day at CocoCay highlights and a look ahead to Cruise 2.0 with a listener survey to shape what comes next. If you love runDisney community energy, running travel tips, and honest trip debriefs, hit play, subscribe, and then share this with a friend who'd absolutely join the next adventure.

David Waldman returns to KITM World Headquarters from his Great American Road Trip, sponsored by Boeing, Toyota, Shell, Royal Caribbean, United Airlines, Google, and Enterprise… No, wait, that was Sean Duffy, who took 7 months paid time off from Porn Hub to make the kind of TV show that only Kristi Noem and Kash Patel could have come up with. The national debt is outgrowing the G.D.P. Putting a lien on Donald K. Trump's ballroom and arch won't be enough to address his spendthrift ways, and the usual cost prevention method of killing the poor and weak is never as effective as expected. People are sick of all of the defeating we're doing in Iran; we might not be able to stand much more. Orange is the new MAGA, as a presidential pardon won't keep Michele Fiore out of prison or help Tina Peters escape hers. Ghislaine Maxwell is a different story. In fact, fellow inmates can stay in prison longer by just talking about her.

Send us Fan MailHello, passionate cruisers! This is Paul and this week on The Joy of Cruising Podcast; I am delighted to welcome Josianne Jocelyn, Travel With Josianne. Josianne worked for several years for different travel agencies. Josianne told me, “I was born in Haiti. I came to the US 40 years ago. I come from a family of 6 children (like me). I lived in Brooklyn through high school. (Like me, well, through middle school). After earning a bachelor's degree, I knew working in the Travel industry is what I wanted to do.  My first trip given to me by the agency was a cruise on the Big Red Boat, and I realized that I loved cruising.  I got married and gave birth to twin girls. When I moved to New Jersey several years later, I had to work part time, because I was the one taking care of the kids.  2020 change everything. I started to watch YouTube travel videos. Someone told me I should start a YouTube channel, and I did.  I did not know how hard it would be. I have been traveling the Caribbean for years by land and sea. Celebrity and Royal are my favorite cruise lines. On Royal I have been on the Icon, Oasis, Quantum and Freedom classes. I've been cruising Celebrity for 30 years. Now I'm in love with the Edge Class. I do travel by land. My favorite Caribbean Islands to go to and spend a week with the family are Aruba, Grand Cayman, Providenciales, Turks & Caicos, and Curacao. My favorite all-inclusive is Sandals, having been to Sandals Montego Bay, Royal Caribbean, Curacao, and Regency Le Toc St Lucia.” Do you have a dream car?

Merch sold out by lunchtime. “Perfect” status quietly returned. Someone built a race plan around getting a photo with Boba Fett. That's the kind of wonderfully specific runDisney chaos we love, and we're recapping it live from the inaugural Rise and Run Cruise aboard Royal Caribbean's Utopia of the Seas.We break down the 2026 RunDisney Springtime Surprise weekend from the expo to the finish line, including what went smoothly, what still needs fixing, and how to think about merch strategy if you can't arrive on day one. We also talk about the surprise perfect recognition, why messaging matters for long-time participants, and what runners can do when demand keeps feeding resellers. Along the way we share a big personal update, Greg's honor of guiding a runner through the New York City Marathon, plus some of the sponsor support that makes these weekends and trips easier to plan.Then we hit the races: the 5K with standout theming and costumes, the 10K from a cheering perspective with behind-the-scenes finish line logistics, and the Inside Out themed 10-miler that closes the runDisney season with moody lighting, core memory vibes, and character stops that spark big feelings. Star Wars energy shows up loud through character lines, which leads to our ongoing debate about whether a full Star Wars race weekend could return and what might be standing in the way.We finish with a rapid-fire race report, a live trivia contest that doubles as a weirdly fun Rise and Run history lesson, and plenty of moments that remind us why the runDisney community keeps growing.

When Ron Bradley won an all-expense paid cruise to the Caribbean in 1998, it seemed like a great opportunity to have one last family vacation with his wife, Iva, and his kids, twenty-three-year-old Amy and twenty-one-year-old Brad. In March, the family flew to Puerto Rico, where they boarded “Rhapsody of the Seas,” a Royal Caribbean cruise ship, and set off for the island of Curacao. The trip was everything Ron and his wife had hoped for, but just two days after departing from Puerto Rico, Amy went missing and their lives would never be the same again. If anyone has any information about the whereabouts of Amy Bradley, they are encouraged to contact the family through their website amybradleyismissing.com or the FBI at tips.fbi.gov.

Join Lisa, Matt and Jules as we cover the most chilling and perplexing unsolved disappearances at sea—the case of 23-year-old Amy Bradley. In 1998, Amy vanished without a trace from a Royal Caribbean cruise ship, leaving behind more questions than answers. In this episode, we break down the timeline of events and explore the leading theories: Did Amy accidentally fall overboard? Did she leave the ship voluntarily? Or could something far more sinister have happened—like being smuggled off the ship? We also dive into the investigative challenges surrounding the case, including the lack of passenger tracking systems at the time and the overwhelming complexity of searching a massive cruise ship filled with thousands of people. This case continues to haunt investigators and Amy's loved ones decades later—and we want to know what you think happened.
