Description

This week on Out of Office: A Travel Podcast, Kiernan has a whizbang interview with author and “CBS Sunday Morning” correspondent Conor Knighton who spent a year visiting every American National Park. His new book “Leave Only Footprints” shares his tales from the trails. Needless to say he is now Kiernan’s idol.  Things we talked about in today’s podcast: “Leave Only Footprints” by Conor Knighton https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/600367/leave-only-footprints-by-conor-knighton/ “CBS Sunday Morning” Crater Lake Old Man segment https://www.cbsnews.com/video/on-the-trail-crater-lakes-old-man/ “CBS Sunday Morning” Denali Sled Dogs segment https://www.cbsnews.com/news/on-the-trail-the-dogs-of-denali-national-park/ “CBS Sunday Morning” Biscayne National Park https://www.cbsnews.com/news/on-the-trail-biscayne-national-park/ Conor Knighton sings “America the Beautiful” in every National Park https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qsIvhZL3Y8k Synchronized Fireflies  https://www.nps.gov/cong/fireflies.htm Museums in danger of closing https://www.aam-us.org/2020/07/22/united-states-may-lose-one-third-of-all-museums-new-survey-shows/ Encarta https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encarta

Out of Office is a travel podcast hosted by us, Ryan Davis and Kiernan Schmitt. From early childhood, we were each infected with a serious case of wanderlust (among other things.) We define travel broadly, from local day trips to high-flyin’ overseas adventures. Every episode, we dig into one topic—ranging from the serious to the silly, the practical to the outlandish—and give advice on how to get out there and explore the world.
