  • 70. Home Sweet Home

    47:15
    (Episode 70) Columbus, Ohio. The trip has come to an end. As the dust settles on a long, tough, amazing, exhausting, and unbelievable two years, Jackie and I reminisce about the trip and ask each other some burning questions about our favorite moments and struggles coming home. It has been a wild ride and I want to thank every one of you for tuning in to the stories and moments from the road. This isn't a goodbye but rather a see you later because I heard the travel bug is seasonal and we have a good chance of catching it again.  SUPPORT THE SHOW ON PATREON Follow me on InstagramJackie's Blog - Gish Out of WaterSubscribe to the ShowWrite us a ReviewMusic by Charlie Millikin

  • 69. The Buda Bulldog

    37:35
    (Episode 69) Budapest, Hungary. Everyone has ebbs and flows throughout their life, but how we respond to each twist and turn can greatly impact the trajectory of the next phase. Our guest, Balu Szilvássy, has made a career, relationship, and life by taking on hard challenges and persevering. From Muay Thai, to coding, to attending a high school that was taught primarily in a different language, Balu refused to give up and that refusal has built the life that he lives today. He calls it his bulldog mentality, and it's a great reminder for all of us that sometimes you just need to get after it to get where you want to go.SUPPORT THE SHOW ON PATREON Follow me on InstagramJackie's Blog - Gish Out of WaterSubscribe to the ShowWrite us a ReviewMusic by Charlie Millikin
  • 68. Mom

    01:03:48
    (Episode 68) Gaborone, Botswana. Life can be complicated, but identifying your mother is usually an item on the short list of things that are easy to do. I say usually because today's guest, Stanley Nchena Kaseke, did not have this luxury. Stanley's family life was anything but straightforward, but the gift from this situation was the love and support from three different mothers throughout his lifetime. This episode is a tribute to all the Mom's out there, biological or not, that love their children unconditionally. Motherly love is what made Stanley the man he is today, and I know that he is far from alone in that category.SUPPORT THE SHOW ON PATREON Follow me on InstagramJackie's Blog - Gish Out of WaterSubscribe to the ShowWrite us a ReviewMusic by Charlie Millikin
