"I love the way Uncle Jared used his voice here. I don’t want to spoil too much, but I love how it’s perfect for an aside joke and then a few minutes later, flips into a gruesome narration.

"I didn’t know so many different invasive species have caused so much damage to Hawaii’s ecosystem. I appreciate the information in this episode though and I think the idea of being stalked by a large cat that has no business being in the ecosystem you live in is pretty terrifying.
Also those frogs sound obnoxious. I wonder why nothing in Hawaii will eat them?"

"I’ve been meaning to go back and listen to some old Ghostlore episodes and I’m glad I did.
If I visit Hawaii, there’s a good chance I’d be staying at a hotel or an Airbnb, so knowing the haunted history of these hotels is super awesome.
I’m excited for when part 2 drops!"

"Part two is out! I still don’t agree with her decisions she made on her first day of her hike (it’s so easy to say that when im not in a storm on a mountain) but I really enjoyed this episode and the story. As a Christian myself, I appreciated that the podcast helped them tell the whole story of what they believe truly happened to her even if they may not share that belief."

For those looking to travel abroad for the first time, embark on a once in a lifetime adventure, or just want to hear a good story about traveling, we love that listening to podcasts can transport us on travel adventures far beyond our current latitude. Here are some of our favorite podcast shows & episodes about traveling, adventure and wanderlust.
