All We See

Pete sat down with Teddy Bloom to talk to him about his epic cycle across USA! Teddy cycled from San Francisco to Washington, D.C., which in itself would be impressive enough, but he did it also to peacefully protest against the present-day political landscape in USA. Teddy's message is a strong one, and there's links below for anyone who wants to learn more. Get in touch!

Pete and Mel finally sit down to discuss some of their summer travels, re-jigging the questions to recap their time in Bosnia & Herzegovina.Get in touch!

Pete sat down (for 2 whole hours without a wee break!) and disappeared into the world of the delightful Julie Greene. Founder of the "Live Your Dream Overseas" course where she teaches adventurous retirees how to design their own moves abroad, each of Julie's answers to the All We See questions easily deserved their own podcast. From growing up in Portland, Oregon, to travelling around the USSR (whilst keeping hold of her trousers!), the stories were amazing. Jump on in and give it a listen!Get in touch!

Way back when (some time in May, 2026), Pete and Mel went on a pub/bar crawl of their current hometown of Chesterton, Indiana. They then had a chat about it, and graded the pubs on the FACES system, a very uneven way of grading a pub. Pete forgot to put this pod out. So here now is that chat.Get in touch!

Pete sat Mel down to record their New to the Crew pod and used that to double down as a travel pod. It's clever, it's lazy, but times have been busy and this was an opportunity to talk about local travel.Get in touch!

Hot on the heels with Pete's chat with Dave, and inspired by Dave's handling of a question that prompted a new future question, Pete and Mel sat down to discuss the random acts of kindness they've experienced on their travels in the past.

After months of wrangling (and lack of final commitment from Pete), we finally got our second guest on the pod to sit down and chat about travel. A friend from childhood, Dave isn't just your ordinary travel guest, he's also a 5 times marathon runner, has run countless F1 tracks (they could be counted, but Pete forgot to ask), and is here mainly to talk about running across both Liechtenstein and San Marino! We also just about found time to go through the 10 questions and potentially created a new one in the process. Enjoy!Cheeky Timestamps:27:08 - Running across a country53:33 - 10 travel Q'sGet in touch! [email protected]

We finally actually went on a trip and then took weeks to sit down and talk about it, then took a couple more weeks to actually post it. Spring break, 2026, Toronto.Get in touch with the pod @ [email protected]

We are back! After 1 year away due to *insert excuses*, the pod is back. Pete tries to once again explain to Mel the idea behind the pod in his never-ending search to understand what travel means to him. They then get back into re-treading the Alaska to Argentina trip and discuss the difficulties of getting to Barrow (Utqiagvik), Mel's 30th birthday and the worst pizza ever tasted. It's good to be back!Get in touch with the pod @ [email protected]
