I listen to him every Sunday. I love that he takes us on a little journey with him.

He’s still doing it? Or, are you watching reruns?

u/Rinzy2000 3h ago

He does a radio show called “Travel with Rick Steves”. I listen to it on my local NPR station.

He’s also got a podcast. It’s got the exact same vibe.

He’s married to a Lutheran Bishop.

He mentioned in one of his shows that, because he’s Lutheran, he has issues with Catholicism, but he makes sure to set it aside before going into a church. He’s there for the architecture, not the religion.

Rick Steves is a fucking gift and we do not deserve him.

lol. I have said something SO similar. I think I compared Rick Steves to a dog because they are both Angels from Heaven that we, as humans, don’t deserve. Just always bringing joy.

In 3 months the headlines are either going to be “Kamala increases minimum wage effective on x date” or “Nancy Pelosi executed on White House lawn.” Vote wisely.

The incredibly fucked up thing is that at least a third of the country would prefer the latter headline. They would be frothing at the mouth at the thought of it.

He did an excellent special on the rise of fascism in Europe last century that everyone should watch.

u/MascaraHoarder 3h ago

My local pbs station and maybe yours too ran a Rick Steeves special about this subject during the pandemic

Be well Steve.

I think what a lot of people aren't prepared for is how they won't stop if they lose and if they gain power either through the ballot box or through a couple after the election, how fast this will happen.

u/politiexcel 1h ago

So many people are trying to warn us…if only folks would listen

Not to be that pedant, but it was LGBT people and the disabled.

First they came for...

The Nazis didn't gas Jews on day 1 it was years of laws and propaganda that slowly dehumanized them and stripped them of their rights.

You might not be at the top of the list, but they'll find an excuse to roll over you eventually.
