  • Decent idea, horrible execution

    I’ve been on the look for a good travel diary type podcast for a long time and this has potential but it’s not it. No one wants to hear about you going to Wyoming dude. Go to a state that’s not one of the most boring in the US and then maybe I’ll give you a second thought.
