Über diesen Titel

 The Maverick Show is a global travel podcast about what really happens when people cross borders. Hosted by full-time world traveler Matt Bowles, each episode features intimate, unfiltered conversations (often over a bottle of wine) with digital nomads, worldschooling families, women and diaspora storytellers, and human rights advocates who share real travel stories that are funny, moving, and deeply human. In addition to hearing about extraordinary places and the people who live there, you’ll learn how travel shapes identity in an unequal world as guests open up about their personal journeys navigating culture, race, power, and belonging beyond borders. If you’ve ever felt that travel changes you in ways no one talks about, you’re in the right place. The Maverick Show hit the Top 100 on Apple Podcasts (including #1 in Places & Travel), was ranked in the Top 1% of podcasts globally by Listen Notes, and was named the #1 Digital Nomad Podcast and #1 Remote Work Podcast by Million Podcasts — with hundreds of five-star listener reviews.https://www.themaverickshow.com Reiseliteratur & Erläuterungen Sozialwissenschaften
