Manage episode 348668328 series 3422472
Jordyn and Pearl are back this week to give you their take on traveling.
The episode starts off rocky due to a lack of sleep and some other unnamed forces referenced in Live Spiral. Listeners get an update on Jo's physical health challenges and the two's anticipation of their in-person reunion that's soon to come! The two share celebrations for the week before getting to the meat of the conversation, and how Pearl's brain began spinning with these questions, to begin with.
Broadly, this episode focuses on traveling for and with various organizations like schools or churches, leading to a discussion on what is the "right way" to travel. The two discuss the important balance of pleasure and preparation for traveling into cultures and lands outside your own. Eventually, Jordyn stops Pearl's brain-rattling, and the two share some stories from their own travels, as well as some tips on how to ethically and responsibly travel that they recommend. The conversation ends on the important and all-encompassing topic of slippers, and the overarching question of this episode: what is an MFA? MBA? Who knows do you? Please share- honestly, they are confused.
Questions your hosts explore this week:
1. What does ethical traveling look like?
2. What intentions can be set before traveling to increase pleasure and the positive impact you're having on the place and people you're visiting?
