Trip it to Me

Shelby & Andrew are thrilled to welcome a new guest to the show! Our dear friend Anna joins us in the midst of planning a trip to Japan. She asks questions about the experience and we cover a good amount of ground (from Osaka to Tokyo, at least!) before the questions become a little more broad. We end up discussing food and trip planning! Enjoy!

Shelby and Andrew are back this week to talk about some of the fears they have when it comes to traveling. A few are rational, a few are not rational. They talk about them all and try to come up with a few solutions along the way!

Before that, Shelby let's everyone know that she's afraid of dead things and Andrew chants for Monkey Man.

Shelby and Andrew are back to the alphabet and also back to Shelby's home state of Oregon. They talk about their favorite spots in the state and also some spots that they'd like to go and that they don't like! Things truly go off the rails, to no one's surprise. On the plus side, we have an unplanned guests on this episode... Welcome, Charli! (Shelby's dog)

It's Trip it to Me's 2nd birthday so Shelby and Andrew are ready to celebrate! They reflect a little bit, check in on Shelby's yard work and then talk about the boat trips on lakes, rivers and oceans that they'd most like to take. Enjoy!

Shelby and Andrew team up to introduce the world's greatest game show! Well, it's at least the world's newest game show if you listen to this as soon as it drops. We list popular travel places, guess how much it would cost to go there and then have a couple of minutes to try to beat that price! It's wild. We also talk about Dave Chang's Dinner Time Live and The Menu. Shelby spills her wine and Andrew has a major life change. This episode has it all!

Andrew is joined by Matthew to talk about the 2024 Academy Awards and some of their favorite performances from the 2023 movies! Before that they talk about Dune 2, Andrew's track days and Matthew teases some future names.

Trip it to Me is back with a zany episode. We draft several meaningless things and also list places that start with the letters D, E and F. Before that, we go out in the yard with Shelbs and Andrew talks about going to a concert with some elderly people that are high. It's a great time!

Andrew's returned from a trip to Walt Disney World and talks about it in this episode. Along with that, we sprinkle in some travel hot takes to go along with it! Before that, we talk about Mr. and Mrs. Smith and Priscilla!

Shelby and Andrew are back to talk about what makes up a content travel moment, hour and day. They recount some of their moments of travel contentment before getting into how they achieved those and what they plan for going forward. Before that, there's a Life Changes segment, a weird intro and recaps of two horrifying (for different reasons) movies!

It's a blending of worlds on this episode as we combine Trip it to Me, Debate it to Me and Film it to Me into one episode where we debate who should win at the Academy Awards. There are plenty of movies we haven't seen, plenty of mindless debates and a good amount of fun! Before that Shelby recaps Pearl and Andrew talks about Fallen Leaves!

We've made it to 100 everybody! Keeping with tradition, we made dream trip itineraries. Shelby takes us to luxury resorts in Thailand and Andrew has us training across Vietnam! We hope you enjoy the itineraries and are so thankful for all who have listened to these first 100 episodes. Here's to 100 more!

Happy New Year and happy first somewhat normal episode in a long time! Shelby and Andrew are back with an alphabet itinerary, as we're whisked away to Italy and the beautiful Milan. Before that, we talk about Poor Things, Maestro and much more!

Merry Christmas, everyone! For the holidays we thought you needed a 3+ hour episode where we answer questions from a pre-determined list with Christmas and travel subjects. We don't know who would enjoy this but we hope someone does! If that's not enough, then we also talk about movies, TV and do a few segments.

One last Japan episode to rule them all, one to bind them. Shelby and Andrew are joined by their partners to put a bow on their trip together. Naturally, they didn't do it in a normal way but instead went with a quirky draft to recap their favorite parts. Enjoy!

Shelby and Andrew have wrapped up their time in Kyoto and recap it in this episode. We talk about all of the different temples, shrines and deer we encountered, as well as all of the food we ate. We hope you enjoy listening to it almost as much as we enjoyed going to it!

In this episode, they plan for Tokyo as well as Tokyo Disney Resort. Before that, Shelby talks about Yellow Jackets, Andrew talks about the Ninja Turtles and there's a Life Changes segment!

The alphabet itineraries are back with a twist. Instead of just picking one spot to go to, Andrew and Shelby each pick 2 spots and then give the four things they would most want to do in each spot. Naturally, chaos ensues and there's some questions of cheating which seem wrong to me. Before the topic (begins at 37 minutes) we talk about several movies, a podcast and Wes Anderson's short films on Netflix. Enjoy!

Yes, we know that the word auction does not begin with the letter I. Instead of doing an alphabet itinerary this week, we found ourselves mired in a large list of I places we'd like to visit. Instead of choosing one of them, we talk about them all in the first ever Trip it to Me auction. Shelby and Andrew each had $1,000 fake dollars to bid on 8 different places. Let us know who won the auction in our poll! (auction begins 30 minutes into the episode!)
