Episode 243 - Cold Runs, Warm Beaches, and Better Wi-Fi
About this episode
Adam and Peter discuss winter runs, vacation experiences, and the impact of technology on work and travel.
In this wide-ranging episode, Adam and Peter bounce from freezing winter runs in Massachusetts to sun-soaked reflections on a long weekend in Turks and Caicos—comparing costs, culture, food, and, most importantly, internet reliability. They swap stories about parasailing highs, Caribbean sushi lows, and what really makes a place work for a “working vacation.” Along the way, the conversation drifts into guilty pleasures (holiday movies and eggnog), Netflix’s evolution and media acquisitions, old-school internet bandwidth realities, and how technology has quietly reshaped work and travel. The episode wraps with thoughtful takes on wealth, history, selling gear the smart way, and even how to make cheap coffee taste a little better.
