Live from Rome

Coming off of Miranda July's All Fours, Amy & Tommy record the first of a few season-ending bonus episodes...from Rome! It's a honeymoon that patiently waited 21 years to happen. In 2004, en route to a 5-week drive through the Sahara desert, the newlyweds were to use their gifted "buddy passes" (standby airline tickets from airlines employees) to first spend a more honeymoon-ish couple of days in Paris before heading off to a gritty and arduous overland adventure. Needless to say, they did NOT make it to Paris that time (and barely made it to Europe to launch their full trip). Fast forward to 2025, where they pivot the plan to a decidedly sexier visit to Rome. Good stories and a few decent travel tips!Mentioned in this episode:Nighttime tour of the ColosseumThe HypogeumFontana di TreviPiazza NavonaPorta Portese MarketNo Jet Lag PillsImmunity Booster PackOriginal Music:Song: Peel with the ColoursArtist: Rick Real and The WarmthAlbum: Coach BarbarianSend us Fan MailDon't miss the good stuff!
