Stop Asking for Permission to Make Your Dreams Come True with The Skiptown All-Stars Jul 09, 2024

Show notes

After 25 years in the City of Angels, Denise and James Gordon sold their house and hit the road to find a new hometown. On their podcast, The Skiptown All-Stars Travel Podcast, they break down each city and every restaurant, Air BnB and tourist trap we encounter along the way. We're not RV people, but we've got over 50 towns and 50,000 miles under our belt so it's only a matter of time until we're your new neighbors!
