Episode #35 - Visiting San Diego, California

Welcome to Episode #35!

On this fabulously new episode we journey to the city of San Diego, California - aptly proclaimed as "America's Finest City." Scott shares his recent family trip to this beautiful sunny town that is filled with wonderful things to explore and taste. Recent upgrades to the port are now bringing in more cruise ships to stop for the day. We love this town and I know we have just scratched the surface on all the things you can do and explore.

Congratulations to Paul Steib! He won the autographed copy of Gavin MacLeod's book, "This Is Your Captain Speaking." 

You can purchase this book through our Amazon affiliate link by clicking on this book cover:

Also, you can sign up for our first "Cruise With The Dudes" cruise to Ensenada Mexico. The online form is on the left side of this page. Our travel agent, Joann will contact you with the pricing and details right away.

As usual, we have the latest cruise news, cruise chit chat, our themed cruise of week and Scott's awful singing. (Sorry) 

We appreciate your support of our podcast. Please continue to share us with your friends and family!

Thank you so much for taking the time to listen to our show! We love and appreciate you, our listeners! - Tommy & Scott

Episode #31 - A Look Ahead with Carnival Cruises

Welcome to Episode #31!

Podcasting goodness is here! On this new show we take a look ahead and in depth at what Carnival Cruises has to offer guests this year and next year. In our opinion, Carnival is the best value cruise line and is great for first time cruisers who want to test their sea legs and without blowing their budget. Carnival has many different ships to and destinations to pick from so you are never out of options.

Also, we are planning a short 3 or 4 day cruise from Los Angeles in August. We will be announcing the details on our next show. So plan to join us!

As always, we have the latest cruise news, cruise chit chat, our themed cruise of week and Scott's opinions (not facts, he doesn't want to be sued.) 

We love and appreciate your support of our podcast. Please continue to share us with your friends!

Thank you so much for taking the time to listen to our show! - Tommy & Scott
