Summary
http://www.tropicalmba.com/behindthescenes/ This episode is a pretty unique one. In this week's newsletter we reached out to our listeners and encouraged them to ask us just about anything that was on their minds. It turns out an overwhelming number of people wanted to know more about our lifestyles and what goes into the creation of the show. Ian and I are going to take you Behind the Scenes on this week's episode. We'll talk about the difficulties of having relationships on the road, what it's like to live as an expatriate, and we'll even answer a few gossip questions about what we do with our time.

| 0:41.8 | Thank you. Tropical MBA.com. So, Ian, last week I sent an email to Tropical MBA listeners asking them to ask us anything. |
| 0:48.6 | And what you have in front of you right now is the list of questions that they asked. |
| 0:53.5 | Does anything jump out at you is surprising? |
| 0:56.4 | It's a very long list. |
| 0:57.8 | That's what jumps out of me. |
| 1:00.0 | We got a bunch of questions about lifestyle and business and a lot of questions about us |
| 1:04.1 | personally, which I thought was pretty cool, Ian, because when I was growing up listening |
| 1:07.9 | to the Howard Stern show, my favorite episodes were always the meta episodes when they were arguing about each other, talking about being on the Howard |
| 1:16.0 | Stern show. And so hopefully we could just do a little bit of that today on the Tropical |

| 1:24.3 | be open and honest? Nobody's drunk on this show, though. Nobody's a dwarf, |
| 1:29.8 | so I don't know how exciting it's going to be. One of the questions we received, Ian, is, you know, |
| 1:34.6 | how do we spend our time? What do we do day to day? And last week, we spent a lot of time working |
| 1:40.4 | on this Barcelona event. So I wanted to, for a little bit of housekeeping, before we get |
| 1:45.1 | started with the Q&A, mention that if you're a DC member or thinking about joining, on June 25th to |
| 1:51.9 | the 27th, we are hosting an event in Europe, our first since 2013, and it's going to be in the |
