We’re Back! The Dinogo Podcast: Travel Tales is Back for Season 4

This summer kept me busy with travels—maybe you experienced the same? I was out there navigating the summer travel chaos. (I had one of those flight nightmares that nearly made me swear off flying for good.) This hectic season has made me value the serene fall days ahead, which I’m currently filling with travel plans for next year: Scandinavia, Japan, New Mexico . . .

Are you starting to map out your next big adventure? Or perhaps you’re just searching for your ultimate travel dream. No matter where you are in your journey, Season Four of Travel Tales by Dinogo has a wealth of inspiration waiting for you.

Prepare for captivating stories every Thursday from our favorite contributors. Comedians, polar experts, chefs, novelists—they’ll each recount a journey that transformed their lives. This season, we’ll hear from a plus-size TV host aiming to empower other plus-size travelers. A blind amateur surfer will share how they’re learning to catch new waves in Hawai‘i. And we’ll even have a guest appearance by the queen of country, Dolly Parton.

On his PBS show, America Outdoors, Baratunde Thurston delves into how our connections with nature narrate a story about this nation—one that’s far more uplifting than commonly portrayed. Baratunde is a comedian (you might recognize him from The Daily Show with Trevor Noah), a podcast host, activist, and author of the acclaimed comedic memoir How to Be Black. In this new series, he travels the country, exploring the deserts of New Mexico and the swamps of Georgia. In this episode, he shares insights from his journeys, along with reflections on climate change, healing, and more. He also recounts how a childhood Amtrak trip across the country reshaped his worldview.
