Hometown Junkie Tours

Author: Pop Culture Junkie September 21, 2023 Duration: 49:31
The Junkies have been very busy lately, what with new day jobs, trips to Miami and event planning, but they still have time to bing pop culture. Nicole is still enjoying Only Murders in the Building, as is Shauna, so Olivia decides to give in to peer pressure and vows to catch up on the hit show. Shauna is still down with And Just Like That, with all its flaws, and is loving The Bear, which is flawless, and Olivia is back on the Twilight train. Speaking of trains...well, travel, the Junkies imagine taking their favorite celebs on a day trip to their hometown, so if you'd like to know the itinerary when Shauna brings Lady Gaga to Phoenix, or Nicole shows Billie Eilish the sights of Chicago, or Olivia explores her adopted hometown of Austin, Texas with Taylor Swift, then listen in. You might not be planning to party with a celebrity, but the Junkies will give you some outstanding travel planning ideas.
