Buckle up (or at least hold onto your city transit ticket) as Selene and Pascale take you along on their whirlwind trip to Boston! From misadventures on public transportation to run-ins with Chinese restaurants and Apple maps, the duo finds comedy in every wrong turn. Along the way, they spill the tea—literally—at the Boston Tea Party, hate on the now infamous duck tour, and even get spooked/turned on by their demon guide on a ghost trolley tour. With plenty of laughter, history, and heartfelt toasts to independence (and personal milestones), this episode is part travel diary, part comedy sketch, and all Life in Jest.
Thank you for listening, dear friends! We love you oh so much! XOXOXO
