  • 89. From Poached to Protected: Exploring Sea Turtle Fact & Folklore In Costa Rica
    Sep 11 2025
    Seated in the Osa Peninsula of Costa Rica is Finca Ganadito, an eco-living space committed to regenerative agriculture and increasing biodiversity. But their work doesn’t stop with the birds and soil — it extends to the seas, with impressive efforts to protect sea turtles. Rob "Tortugo" — known locally as the “sea turtle man” — is a key player in these green efforts. With a background in biology, he’ll lead us through sea turtle fact and folklore in an exploration of sea turtle evolution, their complicated dance with the climate crisis, and mysterious “lost years.” With 80% of sea turtles lost in the last 40 years, this important conversation shares the reasons behind their decline and what you can do to protect sea turtles from anywhere in the world. Tune in to hear: - Incredible sea turtle facts - Why sea turtles are reptiles - Are sea turtles endangered? - The inspiration behind Finca Ganadito - Why only 1 out of 1,000 sea turtle eggs survive SHOWNOTES - 2026 Unruly Finca Ganadito trip: https://www.wetravel.com/trips/finca-ganadito-in-costa-rica-calen-otto-01051353 - Full interview on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/posts/bonus-episode-2-138526093 - Finca Ganadito: https://www.fincaganadito.com - Join Patreon: patreon.com/unrulytravel

  • 88. Understanding And Healing Religious Trauma With Ann Russo (LCSW, MA Theology)
    Aug 14 2025
    Is there an ethical way to do religion? That’s one of the many topics we explore in the newest podcast episode with Ann Russo, LCSW, founder and clinical director of AMR Therapy. As a queer phycologist with a MA in Theology, Ann speaks to what religious trauma is, how it affects the body and brain, and how to navigate and heal from religious trauma. From growing up in a secret queer household in the 80’s and 90’s to entering religion herself, Ann shares personal stories that inform the way she’s able to help others today. Religious trauma can look differently for everyone, and today’s episode is a reminder that you’re not alone. Tune in for venerability, science-backed explanations, and a path forward. “Studies show that queer folks have higher rates of mental illness, suicide, and drug abuse. Some church folks like to say it’s because you’re queer. No — it’s because of the level of rejection.” SHOWNOTES - Connect with Ann: https://www.annrusso.org/ - Join Patreon: patreon.com/unrulytravel

  • 87. Hitchhiking The Globe: How To Change Your Life With One Big Decision
    Jul 8 2025
    Have you ever wanted to transform your life? Sure, we can tweak a habit here and there from our usual comfortable perch. But sometimes we feel a rumble from down deep in our bellies; adventure and change is calling, but we’re too scared to answer. What can happen when we do? Here today to answer that question is Jonny Wright, hitchhiker extraordinaire and fan of irreversible decisions. After traveling the globe, traversing 22 countries through over 17,000 miles of hitchhiking, Jonny knows what it means to make a single big decision that changes everything. After a big breakup, move, and pandemic, Jonny knew that he needed a big change — to shake things up so much that they could never settle back to normal — but didn’t know where to start. Now armed with hard-earned wisdom from the road, he teaches us how to pinpoint the changes that we need to make and the direction we need to go when we can’t seem to figure out where to begin. Additionally, Jonny shares: - Why hitchhiking is a risk he’s willing to take - How to hitchhike as effectively as possible - How to hitchhike Europe - How hitchhiking is a teacher of impulse, intuition, and self regulation - What it takes financially to plan a months long trip - His magnificent Turkish wedding story form the road You’ll leave this episode with a fresh perspective on humanity and feasible steps to for listening to the wise voice inside you, guiding you to a fulfilling life.
