In episode #31 of Roots of Humanity, Drew talks to his new friend Izzet about his roots as an indigenous person to Crimea. What is Crimea? Before 2014, most people probably had no idea about this historic peninsula in Eastern Europe—that is, until it was illegally annexed from Ukraine by Russia, planting the seeds for the present-day war. Izzet talks about the geopolitics of the region and its long history, as well as Tatar culture which has its roots in Turkey. From his childhood in Uzbekistan, to his boarding school years and travel, Izzet has a unique story that is at once wild and inspiring. And tune in to hear Drew reflect about why Ukraine is one of his favorite countries in Eastern Europe, and how he got detained in Russia before the war on the border of North Korea!

In episode #30 of Roots of Humanity, Drew talks to Kamya Buch, a digital nomad and spiritual educator, about her Hindu roots. Ranging from meditation, yoga, and ancient health practices, Indian heritage is alive in the present, because of people like Kamya. Born in England, Kamya has a lot to say about the Indian diaspora. But she’s traveled far and wide throughout Southeast Asia, and she hits it off with Drew in discussing India’s different regions—a perfect conversation for anyone planning a trip. Drew reminisces about his solo trip in India, that ended in a bus crash, while the two talk festivals, women’s rights, fasting, and South versus North Indian food—Which is better?

In episode #29 of Roots of Humanity, Drew talks to his new friend Sayeeda about Bangladesh. Based in Sydney, having lived around the world in places like South Korea and Dubai, Sayeeda brings her Bangladeshi roots to every travel experience. Bangladesh, a country of nearly 180 million people, is the size of Iowa. Drew and Sayeeda talk about the traffic in Dhaka, the capital, as well as Bangladesh’s beautiful scenery, including one of the longest beaches in the world. Most people don’t know that Bangladesh is a Muslim majority country, absorbing the influences of its neighbors into its own traditions for centuries. What do women’s rights look like here? And is it part of South Asia, or Southeast Asia? One thing Drew and Sayeeda have in common, is the mission to put Bangladesh on the map, as a massively underrated country with some of the best cuisine and cultural heritages in the east.

In episode #27 of Roots of Humanity, Drew talks to his travel agent G about his Swiss roots and how to globe-trot like a pro. After visiting every country in the world, and continuing to travel to non-traditional destinations like West Papua, Drew needed someone to score the best flight routes and hotel deals that most people wouldn’t know about. That is to say, G’s experience is top level. But what about Switzerland? Most people think it’s wealthy, and it is! But G helps Drew understand that the high wages correlate with the high cost of living, with simple food items going for 3 times the prices in the United States, so when you do the math, things start to match up. What is it about this seemingly perfect country that makes it one of the best in Europe? For starters, it’s a melting pot, just like fondue. G fills us in about the neighboring countries that influence Switzerland, from the Italian-speaking city of Lugano to the German city of Lucerne. Tune in to hear Drew and G’s thoughts on Swiss cuisine and chocolate, and how to make it as a traveler and a citizen in one of the most desired places on earth.

In episode #26 of Roots of Humanity, Drew talks to his Production Manager A.J. about his Italian-American roots. Fresh out of college with several creative writing awards under his belt, A.J. combines his love of storytelling and travel by helping Drew manage a team of 15 editors. A.J. tells what it’s like to share the same last name as one of the biggest Italian mafia families, period. Drew asks him how moving to New York City as an eighteen-year-old helped him feel connected to his ancestors, and how he balances his two identities of being gay and Catholic. A discussion of the suburbs prompts A.J. to share the story of his hometown, Newtown, CT, the site of the Sandy Hook Elementary School Shooting. How do activism and traveling intersect? Tune in to hear Drew and A.J.’s thoughts on trekking the Trans-Siberian railway before the war in Ukraine, and how filming in the Hassidic Jewish part of Brooklyn opened their eyes to a world outside themselves.

In episode #25 of Roots of Humanity, Drew interviews Vít Jedlička about how he founded Liberland, the world’s newest micro-nation.

A libertarian from the Czech Republic, Vít tells Drew how he saw an opportunity for freedom, how taxation in Liberland is voluntary, and how his government is moving towards blockchain based systems. Culturally, Drew reminisces about the Floating Man festival, Liberland’s biggest party, and how he and Vít tried to cross the border this summer but were stopped by the Croatian police. There are 900 citizens of Liberland and they all have their own legit passport, and Drew is one of them, but over 700,000 people are currently in line for e-residency.

What was it like to be at the center of the early days of bitcoin? Why is it that so many people in the crypto world are fond of traveling? At 72 countries, Charles is catching up to Drew. He shares his collection of Babylonian tablets, and the two talk about Vietnam, Japan, the Philippines, and Hawaii, where Charles was born.

In episode #23 of Roots of Humanity, Drew interviews Norwegian pop-duo Marcus &amp; Martinus about how they made a splash in Europe’s competitive music scene at younger than 20 years old. With three albums and numerous awards, M &amp; M talk about selling out stadiums, touring with Jason Derulo, creating during the pandemic, and following your dreams. To Drew’s surprise, they are not from Oslo, but a small town in the north where you can see the northern lights and fish for salmon in the backyard—but they have to travel 4 hours by car whenever they go on tour. What is it like being twins? They share their bonds as brothers and performance partners, what they fight about, their girlfriends, concerts in Prague, winter sports, and Norwegian fresh air.

In episode #22 of Roots of Humanity, Drew talks to his new friend Kacper about Polish culture, history, and food. Kacper’s Poland is very different than his parents’ Poland, because he was born after communism and speaks English, while his parents fought for food rations and learned Russian. Kacper recalls how his grandmother used to smuggle jewelry from Romania, and how his grandfather remembers when Nazis came to steal their pigs and cows. In turn, Drew opens up about the Holocaust and his Jewish ancestors, which sparks a discussion of World War 2 and the influx of Ukrainian refugees coming into Poland. From the modern capital of Warsaw, vs. the historic, old town feel of Krakow, listen in to find out why Poland is the most underrated country in Europe, a conversation that will surely leave you hungry for pierogis.

In episode #21 of Roots of Humanity, Drew talks to his friend Bram from the Netherlands about Dutch culture. Why is the Netherlands one of the best all-around countries? Is it efficiency? From public transport to conversation, Dutch people have a tendency to be blunt and get to the point. Have you ever wondered why biking is so popular in the Netherlands? Bram bluntly tells Drew it’s because of population density and the flat countryside. They talk about Amsterdam, Tilburg, Utrecht, and Baarle, a crazy patchwork of Belgian and Dutch enclaves. Tune in to learn about Dutch influence around the world, why intergenerational trauma from World War 2 is so important to Dutch cultural identity, and why Holland and the Netherlands are NOT the same thing!

In episode #20 of Roots of Humanity, Drew talks to Mohammad Sabaaneh about Palestine. What was it like to spend 6 months in an Israeli jail? How did cartooning help Mohammad cope? And what is the political cartoon movement sweeping the Palestinian diaspora? From the West Bank, Mohammad is at the forefront of this movement, translating headlines into lived experiences through art. Listen to Drew reflect on his time in Palestine, while Mohammad shares how things have changed, from Ramallah to Gaza, and how he needs permission to visit Jerusalem. They talk about fasting, food, similarities between Jews and Muslims, as well as life inside prison, and comics as an educational tool in understanding settler-colonialism. In the end, they come to the same conclusion. Enough with the labels. We are all just human. And together as one, may we find peace.

In episode #19 of Roots of Humanity, Drew talks to Uptin Saiidi from Southern California about his Iranian roots. Iran is not what you think, and Uptin is on a mission to dismantle headlines and capture the reality.

When it comes to Iran, they talk about revolution, the Iranian diaspora in the US, Tehran as a modern global city, Kurdish culture, Farsi, food poisoning, and why Iran has no McDonalds or Starbucks.

Sara will be the first to tell you that Saudi is not what you think, and she is here to show you the side of it that the media doesn’t want you to see. Not only is it safe, but the rapidly growing tourism sector is the most impressive and sustainable in the world. In just a couple of years, Saudi went from being one of the hardest countries to visit, to opening the gates with new tourist visas and hotel resorts. Sara shares her mission to encourage more women to travel solo, an idea that is new for Saudi Arabia. Even still, Saudi is not as male-dominated as it once was, and Sara is a prime example. Women have empowered themselves in the workplace and gained the freedom to drive, something Sara is still learning.

A jack of all trades, working at the intersection of media and social justice, Paninnguaq is a force to be reckoned with, and she’s on a mission to put Greenland on the map through Instagram and TikTok. In this surprising, high-stakes conversation, Drew reminisces about his excursion to Ittoqqortoormiit, the most remote settlement in the world, while Paninnguaq reminds him that Greenland is so much bigger, so much more diverse than just igloos and eating polar bears. After all, this is the world’s largest island, an island that is home to only 50,000 people! What does everyday life look like here? How have younger Greenlanders begun the collective process of healing, empowering themselves to overcome intergenerational traumas like alcoholism, suicide, and erasure by the Danish government head? With shocking candidness, Paninnguaq reveals her own personal story of overcoming, choosing to love herself through mindfulness and nature, and the sacred, ancestral art of tattoos.
