Join Roads & Kingdoms and host Nathan Thornburgh for this evolving travel podcast, currently on hiatus in 2023. Archives include long boozy global interviews and Anthony Bourdain-led deep dives. Always, though, beats have been by Dan the Automator, artwork by Daisy Dee, show art by Edel Rodriguez. All advertising proceeds go to NYC's Let Us Breathe Fund for which this show has raised thousands, even in hiatus. So thank you for listening.

Khachapuri Love
Here, to ring in this new year, is an ode to what should be the next great culinary star from the country of Georgia, the perfect vessel of unadorned cholesterol, the cosmic collision of flour, butter, egg and cheese: Khachapuri.

Touchstone
Thank fug for The Trip. Normal people talking rationally. Good conversation’s all we’ve got and this is a wonderful celebration of that simple and complex truth. Much appreciate the paywall collapse in this time of covid.
An excellent podcast
An excellent two person conversation podcast featuring a new, interesting guest every week. The interviewer, Nathan Thornburgh, is a skilled journalist who always allows his guest to speak.
Love it
Interesting people telling great stories from around the world. Keep it up!
