Summary

THAT'S RIGHT IT'S A MINISOHDA FROM MINNESOHDA. On the last stop of a six-state Midwest tour interviewing -ologists for future episodes, your ol' Dadward Von Podcast was going to serve up a re-run this week. HOWEVER, I love you all too much and instead I recorded a solo episode in my rental car of the best travel tips I've amassed from the last decade of being on the road. How to pack, what to pack, ideas for mini-trips that don't cost a lot, airport etiquette, cheap flight strategies, why first class actually kinda sucks, face hammocks, how to avoid single-use plastics on the road, offsetting your carbon footprint, jet lag busters, hydration reminders and more. A compact quick episode chock-o-block with secret tips to make your trips go smoothly. Recorded in a rental car in broad daylight in Minneapolis. Also a donation went to: www.carbon fund.org.

I've been doing interviews with Oligies who have been on my list for like literal years.

0:40.2

So I finally, finally made the trek out so many interviews in a week that I've literally

0:45.9

lost my voice.

0:47.1

So with so many miles and a bunch of delayed flights and April snowstorm, I was going

0:53.3

to just take a week off.

0:54.4

Since I'm harvesting so many future episodes for all of our brain areas and I've had no

time not being on the road or doing interviews.

1:02.2

But then I thought springs here, summers coming, I travel so very much.

and just record a quick episode like a weirdo talking into a microphone in full daylight.

1:21.2

So far no one's looking at me.
