Wherever It Leads...
Overview
"Wherever It Leads..." is a travel-meets-journalism podcast from Luna Shark Media that goes beyond typical guidebook recommendations to explore the deeper cultural, historical, and social fabric of global destinations. Hosted by Mandy Matney and David Moses alongside a rotating cast of journalists, each episode pairs rich historical context with candid conversations featuring locals, authors, and tourism professionals. Episodes on Milan, Brooklyn, and Hawaii reveal how the show balances practical travel tips—restaurants, landmarks, neighborhood guides—with unflinching looks at issues like gentrification, sovereignty movements, feminicide, housing crises, and the environmental toll of tourism. The tone is warm and conversational yet journalistically rigorous, appealing to curious travelers who want authenticity over Instagram clichés. Listeners interested in socially conscious travel, cultural history, and responsible tourism will find this show's blend of storytelling and investigative nuance distinctive among travel podcasts.
