Male podcasting from a Midwest Motel
Summary
Dan and Phil record their first "Hard on the Road" podcast from a hotel in Wichita, Kansas, sharing chaotic travel stories like a noisy neighbor, a rough US border crossing, and a funny incident with a King Kong slot machine in Vegas. They discuss their tour life, including losing their voices to throat inflammation, the side effects of steroid medication, and the struggles of sleeping on a moving bus. The duo also covers news about a giant pumpkin and a tall horse before reading listener "hard launches" about awkward romantic and social situations.
