Kevin McCullough and Linda Perillo kick off this Travel Tuesday with a lively chat about baseball fever. Linda shares her Yankee Stadium adventure, complete with legends seats and a surprise Paul Simon encounter, while Kevin laments the Mets’ misfortunes. The duo dives into the psychology of postseason play and the quirks of MLB replay rules, all with their trademark humor.

The conversation pivots to travel trends, sparked by a Condé Nast Traveler article on sustainability and equity in tourism. Kevin questions the buzzword overload, while Linda acknowledges niche markets for eco-conscious and inclusive travel. They poke fun at innovations like Airbus’s “fello’fly” concept, which mimics bird formations to cut emissions by a mere five percent.

Next, they explore “activity vacations” from The Guardian’s list—think dolphin watching in Sussex, tea in Sri Lanka, and homestays in Nepal. Linda leans toward Alpine hikes (as long as Italy is involved), while Kevin dreams of simpler pleasures like dolphin spotting. Both agree these experiences cater to a specific traveler type, not the mainstream.

As the nights grow longer, the hosts tackle “nocturism”—a trend promoting dark-sky destinations, stargazing, and cosmic events. Kevin reminisces about seeing the Northern Lights in Wisconsin, while Linda rails against sustainability preaching. They debate the balance between enjoying nature and avoiding eco-guilt, all while sprinkling in sunscreen tips and vitamin D wisdom.

The episode wraps with practical advice on government shutdowns and travel. Linda stresses knowing your nearest U.S. embassy, which remains partially operational for emergencies. Kevin closes with optimism that political gridlock won’t derail travel plans. It’s a fast-paced mix of sports, stargazing, and savvy travel tips—served with humor and a dash of sass.
