From scorching Spanish streets to frozen Danish jaws, Ringo takes us through his most physically punishing travel experiences in this bite-sized episode of The I Digress Podcast.

Starting with a brutal temperature swing from 45°C Goa to -6°C London (while wearing flip-flops and shorts), the stories escalate through a jaw-freezing Copenhagen winter that left his ex-wife unable to speak, and a Toledo heatwave so intense the streets were completely deserted.

But the real extreme? A 72-hour sleep deprivation marathon fueled by caffeine pills and loud music to meet a professional registration deadline. From Wednesday morning to Friday afternoon, Ringo pushed through three days without sleep, followed by an 18-hour recovery coma.

Short, sharp, and perfectly relatable for anyone who's ever been caught in the wrong clothes at the wrong temperature.
