Hey all you Wander-lusters and Hometown Heroes! Welcome to "Remain, Roam, Return". The podcast that pits your hometown lifestyle against the allure of far-off frontiers. In this show, host Christian (Nebraska) and Damien (L.A) are going to be discussing personal experiences and asking guests for their input to decide once and or all whether it is better to be the local legend or the one that got away.
Summary
Damien and Christian trade stories and jokes about Nebraska’s extreme weather, airplane annoyances, theme-park lines, zoo rivalries, and the rules of eating in a car.
The debate turns a Costco hot dog into a lively conversation about road-trip efficiency, acceptable car snacks, and the hazards of messy food.
