Kevin and Linda open Travel Tuesday with playful banter about hosting other programs, radio nostalgia, and holding each other’s hands through unpredictable broadcast moments. Their comedic rhythm sets a lively tone before diving into the thornier issues affecting international travelers.
The conversation shifts to Middle East instability and how global conflict spikes anxiety even for travelers far from the action. They unpack evacuation challenges, from limited flights to price‑gouging charters, and highlight how multiple nations are stepping in to help stranded travelers reach safety. MedJet Horizon gets a strong endorsement as a tool for security guidance and urgent extraction when abroad.
From here, the hosts pivot to traveler safety worldwide. They poke fun at American habits—flashing cash, ignoring pickpocket culture, clinging to U.S. comforts—and note the dangers in high‑risk areas such as Costa Rica, Malaysia’s Eastern Sabah region, and parts of Mexico. Kevin and Linda share practical tips: hidden pouches, digital payments, and staying aware instead of “touristing loudly.”
The mood brightens when they launch into U.S. history adventures. With America approaching its 250th anniversary, they spotlight Revolutionary destinations like Lexington, Concord, and Boston, plus new tech like the NYC Revolutionary Trail app—soon getting a Pokémon‑style upgrade for kids. Historic inns, battlefields, and immersive experiences make the past a fun travel playground.
They wrap with “Perillo’s Pointers,” revealing the top hotel rewards programs and joking about there being only nine in the ranking. Linda shares her upcoming cruise and hotel previews, while Kevin emphasizes how free reward programs can pay off big. As always, they sign off with humor, warmth, and a reminder that travel—even messy travel—is an adventure worth having.
