| 6/23/26 | Star Princess Review: The Food, The Fun, and One Very Beef-Fueled Vacation | Fresh off Star Princess, we're comparing notes on everything from food and entertainment to excursions, cabins, and overall cruise experience. In this fun father-and-son-style review (well, mother-and-son in our case!), Junior joins me to share his perspective as a young adult cruiser—and let's just say he had strong opinions, especially when it came to the food. We talk about our stateroom, favorite meals, the restaurants that stood out, the Alaska excursions we loved, onboard entertainment, and who we think Star Princess is best suited for. Whether you're considering Star Princess for Alaska or just curious how this newest Princess ship stacks up, you'll hear two very different perspectives from the same sailing. And yes, somehow we also spend a surprising amount of time talking about steak.

| 12/27/25 | Cruising in 2025: What We Got Right, What Surprised Us, What Missed the Mark | As 2025 comes to a close, we're taking an honest look back at Cruising in 2025: What We Got Right, What Surprised Us, What Missed the Mark at the year in cruising—what we got right, what genuinely surprised us, and what didn't quite live up to the hype. In this Unplugged episode, we talk through the trends we accurately predicted, the changes we didn't see coming, and the cruise lines that quietly over-delivered when no one was looking. We also dig into the ideas that sounded great on paper but fell short in real life, and how our own cruising habits, expectations, and mindset shifted over the past year. We wrap things up by looking ahead to 2026—what we're excited about, what we're cautiously optimistic about, and what we're hoping cruise lines continue to get right. No hot takes for the sake of hot takes—just thoughtful reflection from a year at sea and where we see cruising heading next.
