    Moab- Are You Even on Earth?

    Moab is like nothing you've seen on Earth! It's the reason why people from around the world visit every year. In fact, over 50 movies have been filmed in Moab or Arches National Park! Jon and Jenn talk about the two National Parks within Moab: Canyonlands and Arches. If you're planning on going, remember that reservations are now required for Arches. When you get in, head directly to the Delicate Arch. Of the 2000 arches withing the park, Delicate is the big one! There are a lot of great restaurants to choose from as well. For pizza you can have Antica farma, sushi there's Sabaku, Thai is Thai Bella and the Sunset Grill for a nice occasion.  The Moab area has some of the darkest night skies in the US! So stay up late and see the Milky Way with your naked eye.

    Scotland- Boiled Meat for Two

    It turns out that Scotland Yard is in London, not Scotland. That's something Jon found out early on in his trip to the United Kingdom. That, and no one enjoys his Sean Connery impression. Did you know that in Scotland they have a soft drink that's more popular than Coke? It's called Irn Bru and it is everywhere. Plus, Jon and Jenn talk boiled meats, the Loch Ness Monster and Scotch.
