In Part 2 of this interview, travel journalist Joel Balsam explains how to effectively pitch publications, and how he structures his lifestyle of full-time world travel. He then reflects on the ethics of travel writing, the white man’s gaze, and the dynamics of the travel-influencer economy. Matt and Joel share their experiences and inspiration from Langa Township in South Africa. Next, they reflect on genocides, ethnic cleansing, and the importance of supporting collective liberation. Joel then reflects on the impact travel has had on him as a person and how Anthony Bourdain influenced him. Finally, Matt and Joel reflect on the importance of platforming marginalized narratives and standing in solidarity with oppressed people. FULL SHOW NOTES WITH LINKS TO EVERYTHING DISCUSSED ARE AVAILABLE HERE.
