91 The Luck of the Parking Garage | Discombobulated with Bobby Jaycox
Manage episode 496171803 series 3647483
Travel disasters have never been so entertaining! When my carefully measured carry-on luggage wouldn't fit in the overhead compartment and I spilled an entire coffee on the airplane floor, I knew this week was destined to become podcast gold. During a seven-hour Atlanta layover, I'm spilling more than just coffee—I'm sharing the beautiful chaos of life on the road.
This episode takes you from Philadelphia casinos where my friends and I tested our luck at roulette tables (minus the alcohol they stopped serving right when we arrived) to an unexpected magical sunset moment in Brooklyn where gratitude hit me like a ton of bricks. The comedy lifestyle isn't just about stages and laughs; it's about finding joy in parking garages, fighting with hotel staff who walk in while you're naked, and celebrating when your buddy hits their lucky number despite your own empty pockets.
Between tour announcements and travel mishaps, I'm reflecting on what makes this chaotic life worthwhile. When you're watching the sun set over Manhattan after surprising your comedian friends at their bookstore show, you remember why you chose this path. Despite the spilled coffee, missed connections, and occasional hotel disaster, there's something beautiful about collecting experiences across the country with friends who'll drive hours just to see your show.
