| 6/22/26 | A senior Air Canada pilot is arrested for having fraudulent documents. I don't think sorry will bail him out of this mess | A cell phone bursts into flames in the middle of a British Airways flight. Just what every passenger wants at 35,000 feet, a lithium-ion bonfire. Carnival Cruise Line and Emeril Lagasse say they’re taking onboard dining to the next level. On Carnival, that probably means Deck 12. Get ready for another overpriced wannabe cruise line. This one floating in under the Mercedes-Maybach name. Because apparently the world was crying out for a luxury yacht with a hood ornament. Cunard delayed boarding on Queen Anne so the crew could give the ship a little extra scrub-down. Nothing says “welcome aboard” like guests waiting at the terminal while the vessel gets a rinse cycle. | 32m 05s | ||||||
| 6/19/26 | June 19, 2026 The airlines might be given up on the idea of a saving the planet by Tuesday! | Carnival Cruise Line is toasting America’s 250th birthday with a bourbon from a 45-year-old brand owned by a company based in Britain. Nothing says American independence quite like a British-owned whiskey. Oops, they did it again. Royal Caribbean sold more cabins than it has beds on another Alaska cruise and is now asking some guests to admire the glaciers from their living rooms. The fireworks won't be limited to the National Mall. Reagan National Airport will be closed for most of July 4 as Washington clears the skies for America's birthday celebration. | 31m 01s | ||||||

JetBlue is cutting back operations in the Newark area and taking them to the Sunshine State. Joining the Exodus. The rental car industry is predicting great things for driverless cars. Good luck on that idea! What's your hands people? Norovirus visits the Ruby Princess | 25m 57s | ||||||

The bloated bureaucrats from the European Union stick their nose into airlines' business where it doesn't belong. One listener tells the Guru to come to Chicago in the summer. We love it! The Guru is onboard Crystal Symphony now learning how to use his putter effectively | 26m 39s | ||||||
| 6/16/26 | JUne `16, 2026 Hell Hath No Fury Like a CEO Scorned. Del Rio hammering NCLH! | Azamara's new Overland Experiences are just dressed-up shore excursions! The five knucklehead Colorado cruisers buy their way out of jail in the Bahamas! American Express buys the fork and sticks one in the back of the Guru!

| 5/26/26 | May 26, 2026 DHS boss upsets travel indutry leaders! | Carnival brand ambassador Heald says it's silly if guests complain about material in an R-rated comedy show. He's right. The GoldBelt Tram in Juneau is undergoing a bureaucratic proctology exam after the accident. It won't be opening anytime soon. Some cruise lines are restricting guests from putting anything on the doors for safety and overall appearance. It's trashy. Crystal Cruises announces that their new ship will have crew recreation areas to make the crew feel like guests. | 35m 59s | ||||||
| 5/25/26 | May 25, 2026. Memorial Day...a time to remember. | Carnival is being sued by a guest who burned his feet on a hot deck. He's asking for $5 million. 500,000 per toe. Sounds like a reach! Costa will find you $70 if you leave the dirty plate in the hallway. That's more than they pay the room steward for the day.

The CEO of the Hantavirus ship says, "Don't worry, we're financially resilient." Thanks for that. The head of the US travel association, Geoff "with a G" Freeman, is still complaining about the US government!! One Carnival guest is upset because he didn't have a digital clock in his room? No jokes about whether he can tell time! | 34m 34s | ||||||
| 5/20/26 | May 20, 2026 a ceiling falls on guests head on NCL. Another Fincantieri extravaganza. | Aurora Expeditions will now take only women to the coldest part of the world! Good idea? The Mexican government says no to Royal Caribbean's expansion of Costa Maya. They prefer the ruins. Airlines and hotels got together to gather enough signatures in Los Angeles to prevent the city council from implementing the $ 30-an-hour wage. Strong-Arm Hollywood style. | 35m 49s | ||||||
