Linda Perillo takes the mic solo this week on Travel Tuesday, with producers Alex and Tanika stepping out from behind the scenes to join the banter. With Kevin McCullough vacationing in Italy (cue Linda’s envy), the trio dives into everything from college radio nostalgia to the unsung heroes of broadcast production.

The episode swings into a spirited rant about the New York Yankees’ recent performance, with Linda passionately lamenting their disappointing season and trade decisions. She ties it all back to travel, suggesting that sports outings—like a trip to Yankee Stadium—can be great family-friendly adventures, especially for tourists in NYC.

Travel talk continues with a sobering discussion about airline safety, sparked by a recent United Airlines engine failure. Linda and Alex explore staffing shortages in air traffic control and the impact of COVID-19 on aviation careers. Tanika raises a thought-provoking point about age limits for air traffic controllers, sparking debate on whether the system needs a refresh.

On a lighter note, Linda recounts her weekend at the Sussex County Fair, complete with fried food fantasies and emotional encounters with adorable farm animals destined for the dinner table. Her love for state fairs and quirky experiences adds a charming, relatable touch to the episode.

Wrapping up, Linda shares her gratitude for her team and promotes her book, Your Payment Method Has Been Declined. She reflects on the importance of support systems, both in life and in radio, and signs off with heartfelt thanks and a promise of Kevin’s return next week.
