Jacob SmithGUEST
11:45
You know, like I was just in the UK for the past three weeks and, yeah, they don't even, they're like, what, what, what, what conflict? What are you talking about? Like, I'm going to go swim.
Jacob SmithGUEST
11:57
I'm going to go sail around Bodrum and Turkey for my break.
Jacob SmithGUEST
12:01
Cause it's too bloody hot in London, you know? So, you know, it's, it really depends on how much is in the media and whatever media channel that they're watching in Australia.
Jacob SmithGUEST
12:09
Australia is quite sheltered because we geographically and from a distance point of view, we are quite far away from the developed Western economies.
Michele OlenderHOST
1:22
And so you've heard me in a bunch of different locations.
Michele OlenderHOST
1:24
And today, for the first time, either on the podcast or in my life, I'm in Bodrum, Turkey.
Michele OlenderHOST
1:32
And we are on a cruise, a Virgin Voyages cruise that we picked up in Athens.
Michele OlenderHOST
1:40
And people have asked for some more behind the scenes content.
Michele OlenderHOST

And that is going to several stops.
Michele OlenderHOST
2:15
The first stop is today.
Michele OlenderHOST
2:18

Raki PhillipsGUEST
35:13
Yeah.
Spencer LodgeHOST
35:13
"We never thought we were going to see this in Turkey." Bodrum, Antalya, all this kind of stuff.
Raki PhillipsGUEST
35:17
Yeah.
Spencer LodgeHOST
35:17
And, and I, and then they're like, "We're on an all-inclusive." And all-inclusive is kind of like [laughs] give me quick cat, it's time.
Raki PhillipsGUEST
36:37
Here's the..." I am not your typical all-inclusive customer, Spencer.
Raki PhillipsGUEST
36:41
I'm probably more like you, where I'll pay my high rate for, for an average rate, and then I'll pay for the meal and, and this and that.
Raki PhillipsGUEST
36:48
Until I experienced a Rixos hotel in Bodrum, and I was blown away at the type of level of service, quality of food.
Raki PhillipsGUEST
36:56
It's not the cheap and cheerful stuff that you get.
speaker_2HOST
46:41
Oh, I know this one.
speaker_2HOST
46:42
The mausoleum at Halicarnassus.
speaker_1HOST
46:43
Precisely.
speaker_1HOST
46:44
And yes, it's why we use the modern-day word mausoleum for a stately tomb.
speaker_0HOST
25:26
Then they ferry to Rhodes, which is a flat 29 euro each way, totaling 58.
speaker_0HOST
25:30
They take Bodrum Express lines to Turkey for a same day return at 35 euro.
speaker_1HOST
25:34
Because they're just using class to sleep between boats, they stay in a bare bones one or two star room where the resilience fee is only two euro a night, totaling 14.
speaker_0HOST
25:43
Right.
speaker_1HOST
30:15
If you take that unbundling gamble in the shoulder season, you are trusting schedules that are little more than digital illusions.
speaker_0HOST
30:20
Right.
speaker_0HOST
30:21
Like a standard itinerary piece for a coast trip is taking a ferry across to Bodrum in Turkey.
speaker_0HOST
30:26
Bodrum Express Lines openly publishes their fares transparently.
Emre YilmazHOST
5:48
The rent is about twenty thousand Turkish liras a month, roughly five hundred and thirty dollars.
Emre YilmazHOST
5:54
It is cheap compared to Istanbul or Bodrum, but prices spike two or three times in July and August.
Emre YilmazHOST
6:01
October is the shoulder season, the cheapest and most pleasant window to visit.
Emre YilmazHOST
6:06
I unpack my gear.
Adam HamanGUEST
