This week, I’m chatting with my friend Moop, a flavorphile and music sommelier.  He’s also a talented chef who creates magic right in his own kitchen. Moop shares how his cooking is a tribute to his ancestors, blending family traditions with his personal touch. We also dive into how he uses music to set the perfect vibe while whipping up his favorite dishes—it’s like a full sensory experience in his kitchen!

Yikes!  What happens when you go to place that you’ve wanted to visit “forever”?  You end up with a lot to share.  This whopper of an episode includes a conversation with Sayed and a lot of reflection with Taylor.  In retrospect, we could have done a whole podcast on the time spent in Egypt.  It is an amazing place and this episode starts to explain why.

Yeah, it sounds like Keith got hustled on Day 1, but may have found a new home.  History?  Yes, things happened in Greece, but is the evidence still there?  Despite the cattle call and a peculiar hotel, Keith saw the place where the influencers go.  Then he got to experience Sindi’s home island and _really_ experience all the wonderful things about Greece.  Taylor and Keith cover a lot in this episode.  Enjoy!

Yikes!  There was a lot to share after the first stop on our 3rd trip.  In this episode, Keith reconnects with Kwame to talk about all the special places he visited in Ghana.  Keith and Taylor talk about a “homecoming” vibe, history, and more. 
As an added bonus, we have a friend of the show come on and share the story of Ethical Apparel Africa (https://www.ethicalapparelafrica.com/), which was one of the best stops we made in Ghana.  It’s a long episode, but worth it!

One of the most important benefits of traveling is the opportunity to see history and learn about "the world"from a totally different POV than what you're taught in school.  
After 6 weeks traveling through 5 countries, Keith & Taylor catch up to reflect on some eye-opening moments in the region.  The US role in the region's development, feelings about the king, and "me vs. we" are all things that's that they discuss in this episode.  Oh yeah, and let's finally reveal how Taylor got her nickname:  The Butter Bandit.
