The Giant Pod with Andy Wrintmore

#41 DAVID R ABRAM: Getting Off-Grid, The Decline of Travel Writing, Photographing Prehistoric Britain


Listen Later

After spending his summer in Cloud City, a sprawling metropolis high atop an allmighty beanstalk, Andy the Giant has returned to terra firma for Season 3 of The Giant Pod. Our first guest back is former travel writer and radio host David R Abram. Andy & David have a wide-ranging conversation that touches on audio equipment failure, the decline of quality travel writing and the difficulty of going off-grid in an increasingly connected world. David also helps Andy tighten up his pitch for a groundbreaking travel show, and explains how crowdfunding can bypass traditional media gatekeepers.


After growing increasingly jaded with the commercial travel writing industry, David transitioned into a new line of work as a solo writer & photographer. Check out some of his incredible drone shots of prehistoric British ruins on his Instagram
