Travel Plans, Book Recommendations, and Unexpected Guests

In this episode, Danna and Kristin are back in the studio, catching up after a busy stretch of travel. Kristin is home for a while with no major trips on the horizon, while Danna is itching to get away somewhere warm. They chat about past conferences, including Kristin’s recent cooperative conference experience, where she unexpectedly earned “wife points” for attending a 7 a.m. session.

A highlight of Kristin’s trip was an impromptu audience member—an older gentleman who unknowingly sat in on her podcast recording by the pool. After listening to the entire conversation, he complimented the discussion, proving that you never know who you might meet while traveling.

The conversation then shifts to books, with both Danna and Kristin sharing their recent reads and book-tracking apps like Bookmory and Goodreads. Kristin is on a reading spree, enjoying a mix of light fiction and more intense, “messed-up” books, while Danna proudly celebrates finishing a book of her own. They also talk about sneaky Audible hacks and the best ways to access free audiobooks through library apps like Libby.

Finally, they discuss future travel plans, including the possibility of a family cruise in 2026. With cruise prices making less sense (why is it cheaper to go to Europe than the Caribbean?), they debate different cruise lines, inspired by a Princess Cruises commercial featuring Hannah Waddingham from Ted Lasso.

The episode wraps up with a hilarious look at Danna’s household, where impromptu line dancing sessions seem to be the norm—even if she’s not entirely convinced she enjoys it.

Stay tuned for more travel, book talk, and unexpected adventures next time!
