Podcasts about travelers

Hey there, it's Jody Agard. As someone who cherishes the thrill of new destinations—the unfamiliar scents, the spontaneous conversations with strangers, the way each journey stretches and enriches my perspective—I know the profound impact travel can have on our souls. Yet, amidst the excitement, travel can sometimes bring its own set of stresses. That's why this meditation is here: to help you find your center, embrace the present, and open your heart to the adventures that lie ahead. So, wherever you are—be it on a plane, in a hotel room, on the road, or preparing for your next journey—take a deep breath, settle in, and let's embark on this voyage together.

Ad astra Travelers! Welcome to another episode of Tales of Teyvat: A Genshin Lore Podcast. This week we're going behind the curtain of Liyue's government as we discuss the one and only Coco-Goat herself, Ganyu! After our hosts discuss our favorite Aris videos about the half-adepti, we discuss her life as a Qinlin in Liyue living amongst the humans. Afterwards, we'll discuss her terrible work life balance, affectionate yet embarrassing pseudo mother, and whether or not Ganyu is an orphan or not. What happened to her parents? Who was the human? Who was the adepti? Did they have contracts with Rex Lapis too? Later, we'll discuss her relationships with important characters, like Xiao and Ningguang, and her difficulty finding her place over the last 3,700 years in Liyue Harbor.

Travel requirements for British citizens visiting the E.U. are changing as part of the new entry-exit system. Travellers will see the introduction of the European travel information and authorization scheme (Etias). British holidaymakers will need to apply online and pay a fee of €20, before travelling within the E.U. We discuss further with Simon Calder, Travel correspondent with The Independent UK.

Want to work with us? Reach out! inquiries at milestomemories dot com Episode Description This week Citi was in the news for a few reasons. First, they have upped their transfer ratio to Accor by 2X. This might not last, but it is quite valuable. Citi also is planning to launch their new premium Strata credit card next week. While not all of the details are known, tons of rumors have leaked and we'll dive into what this card can be and how it competes with Chase, Amex and Capital One.   In other news more and more travel providers are using AI tools to crack down on travelers, but sometimes they backfire. We look at a couple of these tools and what you need to know. We also discuss: Amex's new sidecar lounge concept, how premium credit cards probably aren't worth it and why Amex is trying to make their benefits easier to use.   Episode Guide 0:00 Welcome to MTM Travel 2:52 Citi's Accor transfer mistake? 6:27 Citi's new premium credit card is coming very very soon 10:45 The rumored benefits for Citi's new card 16:28 The year of the premium credit card? 18:35 Amex's new Sidecar lounge - The lounge boom 23:42 Amex's earnings dive-in - Less breakage & slow bookings? 30:15 A new easier way to connect on international flights 35:14 AI tools and travel - Smoke detectors, Hertz scanners - Reliable?

Whether you're new to investing or looking to expand, this episode is your step-by-step guide to midterm rental arbitrage.

Dr. Al Grauer hosts. Dr. Albert D. Grauer ( @Nmcanopus ) is an observational asteroid hunting astronomer. Dr. Grauer retired from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2006. travelersinthenight.org From June 2024. Today's 2 topics: - My Catalina Sky Survey teammate Jacqueline Fazekas was asteroid hunting with our small but mighty Schmidt telescope on Mt. Bigelow, Arizona when she spotted and then reported a bright moving point of light in the night sky to the Minor Planet Center. Given the rate of human caused climate change one has to wonder about the state of our planet in January of 2163 when 2024 ER is predicted to pass safely some 66 lunar distances from humanity.   - My Catalina Sky Survey teammate Kacper Wierzchos was asteroid hunting in the constellation of Draco with the Steward Observatory Bok 90 inch telescope on Kitt Peak, Arizona when he discovered a faint fuzzy object moving through the night sky.Given the global warming which is happening in 2024 one has to wonder about the state of humanity and our home planet when comet C/2024 G1 (Wierzchos) returns to the inner solar system in 3331 CE.   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

Grizzly bears. They define charismatic megafauna. Huge animals that draw both human admiration and fear. Once they roamed the entire country, though that was a long time ago. Today there are pockets of grizzly bear populations in the Rocky Mountains from Yellowstone to Glacier National Parks. Among the questions that revolve around grizzly bears is how many are too many, are they a threat to humans, should they be removed from the landscape, or protected? To explore those issues our guests today are Erin Edge and Joseph Vaile from Defenders of Wildlife, a nonprofit wildlife advocacy organization.

It can be hard to understand how one song casts a spell on your soul when so many others pass you by. It could be the melody or overall construction of the song, or maybe it's the message of the lyrics that grabs you. But sometimes the magic is just a matter of location, location, location. If you've ever been captivated by a song when you were away from home, be it an overnighter in another city or a protracted international journey, chances are you were simply open to something new (or even hearing a familiar song in a new context). Many factors come into play. Does the destination matter or are you just getting away? Are you traveling with someone or going solo, and are you meeting others or keeping to yourself? You could be celebrating, relaxing or just doing your job, but regardless of your intention, the mere act of getting out of your routine can open your mind. On this week's "How We Heard It," your hosts talk about great (and not so great) traveling songs - the obvious ones that are specifically about going somewhere as well as more subtle songs that aren't directly about travel but have become associated with getting away from it all ... and even some songs that just happened to be in the right place at the right time. So pack your bags and come along. You don't even need a Real ID.

In the mountains of northern India, surrounded by snow, altitude, and uncertain roads, James Thomas and two other riders pressed on—confident they could make it through. But what unfolded wasn't just a story of rough terrain or questionable GPS directions. It was about something much more familiar to most of us than we might admit: a mental trap known as cognitive narrowing, where pressure and focus cloud judgment until we can't see what's right in front of us. What happens when that focus becomes so tight, so singular, that we stop processing the cues telling us to stop—or turn around?

According to several recent studies and reports, international LGBTQ travelers are staying home or going to locations other than the USA. Canadians in particular have changed plans about coming to some US cities and major LGBTQ spots like Provincetown this summer. But first, a woman in California randomly became the return address for hundreds of Amazon returns. Also, Idaho sadly enacted a new law that prohibits signs like, “Everyone Belongs Here” in the classroom.

Running nearly 2,200 miles along the spine of the Appalachian Range from Georgia to Maine, the Appalachian National Scenic Trail arguably is the world's most famous long-distance trail. Some think it's also one that can be very crowded in spots. Morgan Sommerville, the director of visitor use management for the Appalachian Trail Conservancy, joins us today to discuss the trail in general and whether it's too crowded.

The mission was simple: ride motorcycles from Georgia to Prudhoe Bay, Alaska, to raise funds and awareness for mental health among veterans and first responders. Two military men set off as a team, just like they had served—watching each other's backs and pushing through the miles together. But halfway through, everything changes. The team breaks. Shilo Crane is left to ride alone. And what happens after that… may be the most revealing part of the adventure.

It's easy to get caught up in the business of overlanding and forget to actually travel. But Basil Lynch never stopped. In this episode, we sit down with the founder of Basil's Garage—an overland outfitter based in San Diego—to talk about why staying on the road matters more than ever. From international travel to local weekend getaways, Basil's real-world experience continues to shape how he builds vehicles, advises clients, and runs his shop. We dig into his background, his favorite travel moments, and why firsthand experience is still the best way to know what gear works—and what doesn't. This is a reminder that in an industry built on adventure, the best advice still comes from those who live it.

Full transcript⁠ ⁠Watch this interview on YouTube⁠ — "You have to blend innovation with empathy, and effectively combine data-driven insights and creative storytelling," says Lisa Caputo, the Chief Marketing, Communication and Customer Experience Officer at Travelers. "To me, that's a magic combination." And there's one more ingredient missing from the recipe, which Lisa has learned over a career spanning broadcast journalism, the White House, and corporate America: The willingness to stay curious and embrace change. Today on Building Better CMOs, she shares insights on transforming customer experience at Travelers, the four-legged stool of "Big M marketing," and the critical role of leadership in driving organizational change. She and MMA Global CEO Greg Stuart also discuss the value of measurement in demonstrating impact, what she learned from working for Bill & Hillary Clinton, and how to foster an environment of empathy.

Here are 3 big things you need to know—   One — The U.S. will be shipping more weapons to Ukraine.  President Trump made the remarks at a White House dinner with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.  This comes after the administration had paused some weapons shipments to Ukraine over concerns the U.S. military stockpile was being depleted.    Two ---  A federal judge has prevented the Trump administration from enforcing part of the Big Beautiful Bill that would block funding for Planned Parenthood health centers. The temporary restraining order was issued by a Judge in Massachusetts. At issue is the provision in the new tax and spending bill signed into law by President Donald Trump on July 4 that eliminates one year of Medicaid payments from Planned Parenthood health centers because the organization also provides abortions. The real issue, of course, is a district judge trying to strip Congress of the power of the purse.   And number three --- Travelers at several major U.S. airports no longer need to remove their shoes at security checkpoints, as the TSA begins testing a relaxed screening policy.  An internal memo reveals the soft launch is now underway at airports including L-A-X, LaGuardia, B-W-I, Philadelphia, and Fort Lauderdale International.

Dr. Al Grauer hosts. Dr. Albert D. Grauer ( @Nmcanopus ) is an observational asteroid hunting astronomer. Dr. Grauer retired from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2006. travelersinthenight.org From May 2024. Today's 2 topics: - It is essential that asteroid hunters keep track of potentially dangerous asteroids to make sure that their orbits haven't changed as they encounter other objects in space to make them a threat to our home planet. - Life on Earth appears to have formed in our oceans. Scientists are thus on the hunt for other worlds which have oceans of liquid water and thus potentially could be the home of fellow living creatures.   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

Heading into the National Park System this summer? Going it alone, or have you booked a tour company? What do you think about how the Trump Administration and Congress are treating the National Parks and the National Park Service? Have you reported any park signs to Interior Secretary Doug Burgum that disparage Americans, dead or alive?   As you can tell there's a lot going on in the parks. Some good, some not so good, and some downright bad. It's a lot to digest, and a lot to discuss.  To help us gauge a sense of what's going on out there, our guest is Leigh Barnes, President of the Americas at Intrepid Travel, an Australian-based tour company that has been leading trips around the world since 1989. Part of their cache is keeping tour groups small, a dozen or so travelers along with the guides.   The company also recently conducted a survey of Americans to get their sense of how politicians are treating the Parks and the Park Service that we'll discuss with Leigh.

Damian Monkhorst, an Australian rider, loves twisty roads and staying off the tourist track. When an online motorcycle forum connected him with riders in the United States, including Andy Morley, he knew he wanted to experience it for himself. From the other side of the world, he made a bold move—buying a bike and having it waiting for him when he arrived. But once he got there, the adventure wasn't quite what he expected—neither the ride nor the people.
