smcttl You could try Criminal https://thisiscriminal.com/ The episodes listed about halfway down the page are like their greatest hits, and a great place to start.I'm more interested in one that covers something new each episode as opposed to longer multi-episode arcs.

Comment on Seven days in the North Island of New Zealand in ~travel
smcttl If you’re into Lord of the Rings stuff, also fun to know that one of these volcanoes (Ngauruhoe) was used as a stand-in for Mt Doom. Either way, it’s a really nice day hike.Tongariro crossing - day hike between volcanic peaks

Have also been a lurker of Tildes.net for a couple of years, and much prefer the conversations going on over here - now I finally have an account!
Also active on the tildeverse, and Mastodon.
I feel your frustration… I used it to call government departments in my home country for a couple of cents per minute (literally 100x cheaper than on my mobile plan).
Anyone here tried Viber or Talk360 for international calls?
