Tripology: Travel Podcast

This week, Alun's been diving with Thresher sharks in Malapascua. Rounding off his time in the Philippines, we hear what it's like to be back at scuba diving school and then thrown in at the deep end... with thresher sharks!

Adam's out of character, as he relives the moment he simultaneously smashed his laptop and studio lamp, resulting in a trip to see some wheeling, dealing, Punjabi friends.

Tales of a Trip returns with a wonderful story from a free-spirited traveler who embraces the chaos. An innocent stroll through the streets of Cusco turns into 7 hours of partying with strangers. Start the celebrations! Follow Pafi: @pafitrend

Adam survives New Zealand's most dangerous road but not without injury! We hear how a wild 4X4 ride through Skipper's Canyon was a bridge too far. Lord of the Rings filming locations, a suspect first aid kit, and a high risk of landslides was more than Adam bargained for. Did Adam strike gold or was the experience a thorn in his side?
Alun's Miscellaneous Travel Item returns with a cameo from Vagabot. Adam's presented with a list of exotic travel destinations and must guess which one is completely fictitious. In with a chance of a free holiday, can he defeat his AI counterpart?

Tales of a Trip takes a horrifying turn, as we hear from an incredibly brave American listener. Whilst living in Medellin, Colombia, he was robbed and beaten by an armed gang. Extreme and traumatic, this story's not for the faint-hearted.

Travel guides, travel novels, and travel magazines are the theme of this week's Tripping Point travel quiz! How much does Alun know about the travel publications that changed the world? Tune in and play along!

Adam's been having campervan malfunctions, which have left him stranded in the rain. Apparently leaving the headlights switched on all day can run the battery down... Fortunately there's a French stallion on hand to save the day!

Tales of a Trip goes hitchhiking this week, as we hear from a young chap who was picked up whilst walking the Te Araroa. Putting his trust in complete strangers, a trip to the local supermarket turned into days of fishing and playing golf!

Join our Patreon community to access the Lost & Found bonus section, as this week Adam shares a recent tale of him working a trial shift at one of the best restaurants in the world. The pressure's on!
