Tossing And Turning In Thailand

Author: Liz Deacle and Brian Deacle October 7, 2022 Duration: 47:27

f you have ever dreamed of visiting Thailand but have been put off because you've heard stories about how hard it is to travel in Asia (and let's face it we've all heard those stories), then you will love this podcast! Because taking a trip to Thailand is easy. Easy peasy. If we can do it, you certainly can.

Just know that you might have to prepare for a few teeny dramas...

Ready To Spend 5 weeks in Chiang Mai, Thailand?

Liz and Brian are finally in Thailand. Living it up in the city of Chiang Mai.

Phew. They made it.

But not without a few hiccups. Such as being captured in the checkout line by two old biddy drug smugglers disguised as harmless grandparents for example. Bri suddenly developing Insomnia. Or causing the security guard's mouth to fall open when we showed up at the posh condo gate in a cattle truck...

Sit back, enjoy the show and please don't forget to spread the love. This can be done in a number of ways: Leave us a really nice review on your favourite podcasting app and say how flippin' brill we are.

You might think from the title It's a Drama Podcast that you're in for some heavy theatrics, but it's actually the opposite. Hosted by world traveller and best-selling comedy author Liz Deacle alongside her husband Brian, this is a space for the gloriously unfiltered and often hilarious conversations that happen between two people sharing a life and a suitcase. Each episode feels like pulling up a chair at their kitchen table, where the topics roam freely from travel mishaps and cultural observations to the everyday dramas of family, food, and navigating the second half of life with a sense of humor. Liz and Brian’s candid dynamic is the heart of the podcast, offering a blend of laughter and genuine honesty that makes the personal feel universal. You’ll find yourself in the middle of stories that are both frank and funny, often accompanied by the clink of a wine glass and the admission that adulthood isn't always a dignified affair. It’s less about destination and more about the messy, joyful, and relatable journey, making this a uniquely comforting listen for anyone who appreciates real conversation served with a generous side of comedy.
