I've been on an extended hiatus, but I'm starting my travels once again.  Stay tuned, and safe travels.

Brent, The Road Warrior

I'm back from my long hiatus with The Road Warrior Podcast episode 13, posting from my vacation in Honolulu, Hawaii.  I've been back on the road for the last few weeks, and I share a couple of stories from the field.

In this episode of The Road Warrior Podcast, I'm still on the ground in San Diego.  I am fortunate to have one of my listeners, special guest road warrior Jason Womack, share his travel perspectives.  Jason is an executive coach, consultant, and motivational speaker. 

Jason shares talk about the current state of air travel, and shares some of his personal travel and time-management tips.  You can find out more about Jason on his website at http://www.jasonwomack.com.

I'm finally back from my long hiatus with Episode 11.  In this episode, I take a break from the long hours at work to drive through the desert.  This is The Road to Las Vegas.  In this report, I talk about all of the interesting roadside attractions throughout the desert.  Note that this episode does not include any information about Las Vegas...

No, I haven't forgotten about the show.  I've just been temporarily stuck in the office for a couple of months, so there really hasn't been an adventure to share.  I'll be back next month from some of my vacation travels.  Until then, travel safe!

In episode 10 of The Road Warrior Podcast, I continue my travels into Philadelphia, PA, and into an unexpected complication -- snow.  Listen to how I deal with this challenge of the day. 

Due to my adventures in the snow, I'm cutting the episode short.  I'm still recovering from the cold I got in the snow.  Be back in April...

I'm back with episode 8 of The Road Warrior Podcast.  This time, I focus on my first trip of 2007 into Wilmington, DE.  I recount the trip to Philadelphia from the parking lot at San Diego airport to the long road home through Chicago. 

Tips: 
1.  Print your boarding passes in advance from the airline web site. 
2.  Block your appointment calendar on travel days. 
3.  Have hotels and other information about hub cities readily available to you in your PDA or phone.
