Winging It

Far From Home

2d ago • 27 mins

I'm still working on my next episode, where I'm asking listeners around the world to send me short voice memo recordings from their phones, talking about how people where they live have reacted to the recent American election results and how they think a second Trump presidency would impact ordinary folks in their country.  If you have any thoughts or observations you'd like to share, please email me at info@farfromhomepodcast.org.

In the meantime, I know a lot of new listeners have joined me for this 4th season of Far From Home, so I'm popping into your feed to introduce myself and share a little about my background and how I got to where I am today.

On this episode, I'm featuring an excerpt of an interview James Hammond conducted with me a few months ago for his “Winging It Travel Podcast.” It was a really great conversation, and we delved into some interesting topics that I haven't discussed on Far From Home in the past, so I wanted to share it with all of you.

You can visit Winging It's website to read a nice article James wrote about me and listen to the rest of our conversation, or simply search for Winging It Travel Podcast in whatever podcast app you use (note that this interview originally ran back in May, 2024)


On Far From Home, award-winning public radio journalist Scott Gurian reports fascinating stories from far-flung places like Iran, Chernobyl, and Mongolia. For more info, visit farfromhomepodcast.org
