Shelby and Andrew are here to talk about creativity! We discuss how it affects our lives and how we balance being creative with other aspects of our life. Before that, we cover episode 4 of The Last of Us, All Quiet on the Western Front and stick around for cider coming out of someone's nose at the end!

We recorded this episode before Cyclone Gabrielle touched down in New Zealand, causing billions of dollars in damage and taking away many people's homes. While Shelby and Ben (in Napier) are safe, many people are having to put their lives back together from scratch. If you feel so inclined, please donate to the disaster relief fund linked below.

We're back to the itinerary game today, as Andrew gives us a 5 day itinerary for Dubai! Before that we talk about The Last of Us, Tar, The Northman and Shelby's dog becoming a circus dog! The itinerary starts at an hour and 4 minutes.

After a busy weekend, Andrew and Shelby sit down to hash it out. Andrew talks about the recent additions at Disneyland Resort and Universal Studios Hollywood and if this makes for a good time to travel to Southern California. Before that, sinks, TV shows and Oscar nominations are really important topics of conversation. Oh, and Phoebe Bridgers. 

This week on Trip it to Me, Shelby and Andrew take turns asking each other questions about some of the places they've already been to in their lives. Before that, there are a number of movies, shows and books to talk about as well as a brand new segment! The topic starts at 1:03:45.

We apologize for the high pitched buzz (insert drinking joke here) during this week's episode, we couldn't resolve it during editing but will make sure that's not around next time!

It's been a movie watching month for Andrew so we devoted a whole episode to him talking about those films. There are some rules though and things get a bit wacky. Shelby also talks about planning out a Hawaii trip, which is decidedly less wacky.

The holidays are over and Trip it to Me returns with a mini trip report about Andrew's time in San Antonio! Learn about all the tacos he ate and what he thinks of the city. Before that, there's movie talk including Glass Onion! Enjoy and check out Kurt's YouTube page listed below:

We've made it to our holiday episode and have brought back all of the guests from the year. Shelby and Andrew are joined by Ben, Kindsi, Kurt, Matthew, Melissa and Michaela as they recount their usual segments and their favorite parts of the year. We hope you enjoy and have a beautiful holiday season!

We made it to 50! Every 50 episodes we've decided to revisit the first prompt that we did - a week long dream trip itinerary! Shelby takes us driving through Iceland and Andrew takes us to Japan but not to Tokyo or Kyoto. Before all of that, there's talk of drinks, reminiscing about the first 50 episodes and discussing the sourdough trials Shelby has gone through.

This is quite long because there's two itineraries! Iceland talk begins around 46:30 and Japan around the one hour and 28 minute mark! Thank you all for listening!
