The Cruise Dudes Podcast Tommy Allison & Scott Andrews

It was a cruise like no other! On this new episode, Tommy shares about his family’s experiences on the Discovery Princess to the Mexican Riviera for the April 8, 2024 Total Solar Eclipse.  This cruise was sold out for two years and Princess Cruises made this cosmic event very special in many different and exciting ways for their guests.  And watching a total solar eclipse from a cruise ship is experience like no other. It was a highlight of our lives that our family cherished together and will never forget. Thank you Princess Cruises for making this phenomenal cruise possible! Enjoy the show! - Tommy & Scott 

On this new episode we explore cruising with your kids. We think taking a family cruise is a
wonderful way to spend time together, try new things, visit new places and learn about other
cultures. However, most of your time will be enjoying the cruise ship and all of its amazing
kids programs and activities. We discuss what you can expect and experience on Royal Caribbean,
Carnival, Norwegian Cruise Line, and Princess Cruises. Do you have a great experience that you
had with your kids that you would like to share with us, let us know! Enjoy the show! Keep On Cruising! Tommy & Scott

We are back with part two examining the suspiciously clickbait article titled "What A Cruise Is Really Like - Fantasy Versus Reality" by Nicole Castelino. It is very apparent that this was written by AI and not by a real travel/cruise writer. This poorly written article was published to draw readers who are drawn into fake drama and negative stories, with unsupported "facts". This article's sole purpose is to create controversy to feed the search engines algorithyms that like negative stories, videos, etc. We are exposing their tactics.

Scott recently ran across a blog post about cruising with a suspiciously clickbait title "What A Cruise Is Really Like - Fantasy Versus Reality" by Nicole Castelino. We take a dive and read through this article which was full of straw man arguments, untrue accusations and just poor writing about cruising. Why was this even published? Who is Nicole Castelino? What is Livstyl.com all about? It became more apparent as we read through this "article" we felt that an AI bot wrote this. Is this the future of cruise blogging? Listen and let's discuss. Share with us your thoughts on this show.

This is a different kind of episode. Normally, we like to keep it positive and such, but we have notice some trends and attitudes that need to change amongst our cruising community. We all have seen some crazy things that happen on cruise ships, and most of the time, people just turn a blind eye to it. But not today. We are going to call out somethings and hopefully, some of you will change your tune. And if you think there is something else we should call out, let us know and we will share it on a future show. We want everyone to have awesome cruise vacations, so hold on to your handrails and enjoy the show!
Keep On Cruising!
