Joshua Tree Reset: Tipping Culture & Spanish Pronunciations

from Always On Adventures · host Jamie Villamor & Jon Gray

Reset Joshua Tree: https://www.stayreset.com/Jamie and Jon escape to Joshua Tree and stay at Reset, an incredible modern hotel made from shipping containers in the middle of the desert. While there, they have a heated debate about tipping culture—specifically about a drive-thru coffee girl who gives Jamie the same compliment every single time. Jon argues from the barista's perspective (he grew up in the service industry), while Jamie refuses to tip for a scripted compliment. They also visit high-end restaurants like The Kitchen in the Desert and Thirty-9 Palms, try the famous Mas o Menos matcha (where Jamie butchers the Spanish pronunciation), and attempt to fly a drone during a windstorm. Plus: Jon's custom Tipsy Goat cowboy hat from his buddy in Dallas, the RingConn Ring sponsorship (no monthly fees unlike other rings), creepy homesteads in the middle of nowhere that look like meth houses, Joshua Trees and vortexes, moon-charged water rituals, and an update on their son-in-law's soccer career (8 goals, leading the league, possibly heading to Europe). They also mention potentially taking him to Slab City—a lawless California art community—if he ever messes up with Jamie's daughter.____________________________FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA!Always On Adventures Website: https://alwaysonadventures.world/Follow Jamie Villamor on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamie_villamor/Follow Jon Gray on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/grayjon/Follow Always On Adventures on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alwaysonadventures/Have a suggestion for the show?
