With Jenn MIA (because somebody forgot where her priorities lie), Tom and Trevor go rogue in this unfiltered, one-take wonder. From Carnival scrapping physical shore excursion tickets to the debut of limited-edition Jack Daniels bottles onboard, they dive into the latest cruise news with sarcasm, heart, and a healthy dose of tech nostalgia. Throw in some SpeakPipe shoutouts (toilet flush talk included), a conspiracy theory about Guy Fieri’s tequila, and a Zune player that may or may not contain a gorilla fight—yeah, this one's got layers. Buckle up. No edits. No rules. No Jenn.

In this wild ride of an episode, the Podcastaways crew dives into powdered alcohol smuggling attempts, haunted Long Beach ports, overpriced cruise add-ons, and whether Dog the Bounty Hunter is lurking in Hawaii. Jen leads the charge, Trevor tries to get scattered at sea (unceremoniously), and Kennedy’s Roomba collection grows dangerously sentient. Also: do you really need travel insurance? Tune in for laughs, cruise tips, and possibly a goodwill intervention.

Today, The Golden Crew sets sail into the art (and chaos) of cruise packing! Trevor, Jenn, and Tom break down must-have items for first-time cruisers, from formalwear hacks to laundry service secrets. We swap hilarious travel mishaps, reveal unexpected cruise essentials (yes, even poopouri makes the list), and share why overpacking is the silent villain of every seven-day trip. Plus, we tackle an audience question: What’s the best U.S. port to cruise from if you're traveling internationally? Get ready for a perfect blend of laughter, life-saving tips, and a few unexpected detours into wrestling, haunted offices, and beach bag blunders. 🌴🚢🎒
