Trip Happens with Bert Weiss and Amanda Weiss

Today, we’re sitting down with legendary cowboy cook Kent Rollins and his wife, Shannon, to hear the story of how they met, fell in love, and built a life together on the open range. You've seen Kent on Cast Iron Cowboy on the Outdoor Channel, and he's competed on hit Food Network shows like Chopped Grill Masters and Beat Bobby Flay. Now, he's sharing the stories you won't hear on TV! Plus, Bert and Amanda revisit some of their wildest celebrity interview stories, including encounters with Mariah Carey, Justin Bieber, J.Lo, Usher, and Chris Rock.

In our first episode we are answering YOUR burning questions about our story, how we fell in love and why travel is so important to us. We thought there was no one better to help us tell our story than Gracie and Anthem Award winning radio veteran, Kristin Klingshirn. You’ve heard her on The Bert Show, Bob & The Showgram (and you can now hear her on her own show, Barely Functioning!), and today she’s helping us answer juicy questions like: Why you should you travel with your partner before getting married? What is our worst vacation accident? When did we start dating? What’s one positive trait we’ve brought out in each other? What are our biggest “Icks” about each other? What TRIP solidified us wanting to be together forever? And more!
