Join Julia, and Eva, two real-life friends, travel lovers, knowledge seekers, and purveyors of cocktail party napalm (you know, the kinds of fascinating facts you drop at a party and blow everyone’s mind in the process with) for a weekly does of globe-trotting, travel hacks, and travel-inspired trivia.
Each episode, Julia, a writer/producer and woman about town and Eva, a writer and travel editor at Fodors, pick a travel-related theme and invite a fascinating and fun guest on to chat about it. Then, our hosts challenge the guest to a friendly round of travel trivia to find out how much they do or don’t know about the world - and how much wonder there’s left to discover. Even in the most unlikeliest of places. (Did you know that the remains of King Richard the III were found buried under a car park in England? Neither did we until we started working on this show!)
The questions are fun, but it’s the answers - and the conversations and stories they lead to - that are the real heart of the show. Think of us as the pithy travel page of your favorite glossy magazine. But, you know, for your ears!
Whether it’s finding out what the current parisian pastry craze is from a professional tour guide, exploring haunted travel with a paranormal investigator, or answering pressing questions like “do I need to buy you a present if I schlepped all the way to Bermuda for your destination wedding,” I Couldn’t Help but Wander is a show for listeners who love culture, geography, history, and getting to know the world just a little bit better - even from the comfort of their couch.

Every four years the same undecided voters in the same swing states take over the national media, but have you ever thought about what kind of psychos choose to interview those people?
With a historic election right around the corner, we’ve got politics on the brain - and we bet you do too. But honestly, at this point who wants hear another depressing conversation about the "The Polls"?!? Insted, Julia and Eva invited Alex Berg, a journalist and creative director who spent several elections trailing politicians from small New Hampshire town to small New Hampshire town, to ask her about what it’s like to be on the ground for one of these things.
Plus, an audio postcard from Julia’s sister Claire recorded on the floor of the DNC, we learn what kind of wild animals have lived in the white house (no, not the politicians…), and, is it even possible to travel ethically anymore? We sure hope so... otherwise we'd have to cancel this podcast.
