Podcast #22 - Other Side of the Ticket Counter; Finding Local Food

Another visit down to Memphis prompts a confession about my obsession with pork barbeque and thoughts on how to find the best food in a new city. Other topics include “voice of the travel company” — a letter from a British Airways manager gives his thoughts on the travel experiences of some TravelCommons listeners, and more Classic Travel Stories — after-dinner stories about interrupted train trips in Eastern Europe. Here’s a direct link to the podcast file.
