Tui's Pack Your Bags Podcast will be back with the new series with a spring kickoff and upcoming holiday season.
Each episode, hosted by comedian and actor Russell Kane, features celebrities from around the world, including sports, food and entertainment. They share stories of their most memorable travel moments and watch how their adventures (and unfortunate adventures) have shaped their lives.
As part of the episode, guests reveal that they need to pack three must-have items and the story behind them. They were asked to release their emotional baggage, or rather baggage.
Guests will also overcome the fear of flight and solve listener travel dilemmas such as simple fire questions about dream travel guests, greatest trip quick, favorite holiday drinks, ultimate bucket list destinations and more.
Previous guests include first dated host Fred Sirieix, The Guardian's Food Critic Grace Dent, and Dr. Zoe Williams of ITV's This Morning.
Lined up for season 2 include comedian, actor and self-proclaimed “travel expert” Rob Beckett. Rob Beckett talks about his hilarious travel memories, his daughter's love for beige food, and why Crocs is one of his necessary items. Paralympian Swimmer and BAFTA documentary maker Ellie Simmonds talks about working with her best friends in Vietnam and Madagascar and traveling for backpacking. Celebrity chef Marcus remembers his first trip to France and his new love for skiing and motorcycles. And the dancer, judge and strictly star Oti Mabuse took her parents on trips to South Africa, Romania and Iceland.
On March 25th, Season 2 of Bags will be released on March 25th on all podcast platforms that release every Tuesday.
