Early Departures

Phoebe tells us about a very tragic Christmas holiday in the Dominican Republic...but no, it’s not what you’re likely thinking of when you hear Dominican Republic and tragic tourism in the same sentence. Next, Ashley takes us aboard a 48 foot yacht, aka a big fun toy for a couple of sea bullies to play with; we’re going back to Spain!

First, Ashley talks about Victoria Curthoys, and how she came to be “Terrifically Toeless.” Next, Phoebe takes us along on a Colombian Tinder date that’ll make you wish you’d just stayed home.

Phoebe takes us to the Caucasus Mountains mountains in Russia to tell us a truly unforgettable tale about Zorbing. You’re gonna wanna strap in good and tight for this one! Later, Ashley tells us about one woman’s search for her sister, who goes missing during their visit to an Ayurvedic center in Kerala.

First, Ashley takes us on the “World’s Toughest Race” where leptospira bacteria are the real winners. We’re talking Eco-Challenge, and we’re a little too excited about it! Next, Phoebe tells us the truth behind all those dolphin “love” cave memes and we chat about who to watch out for in the dolphin world.

Phoebe tells us about a very gruesome (and very cliche) couple who liked to use their vacation time to play "hide the purse" with terrified unwilling participants in Ocean City, Maryland. Then, Ashley takes us on an eventful camel ride in the Moroccan part of the Sahara Desert, and tells us why camels hate us all.

First, Phoebe takes us on a trip to Glacier National Park to terrify us with the details of "the night of the grizzlies." Later, Ashley tells the story of "Jam and Coops," who went for a doomed stroll in Sarasota, FL. Prepare to be stalked through the darkness of night!

First, Phoebe takes us on a Canadian road trip we’ll unfortunately never forget, and tells us about some amazing people who’s travels had to end for seemingly no reason. Then Ashley concludes her tale of the alleged Tobagonian ripper. If you haven’t listened to Ep. 27, go back and check that out first for part 1!

In Ashley’s story, the good news is that you’ve retired to a beautiful paradise island, the bad news is someone might want to kill you in your sleep. Phoebe then barely rescues us, by taking us to Australia where a bad man had a plan to get some “help” on his farm. Buckle up travelers, this one is gonna get reeeaaal bumpy. And by bumpy, I mean gory. Throw some headphones on if you have some kids around!
