In our second news and travel podcast, The World and Lonely Planet take you to a country that’s only 90 miles from the United States, and yet is off limits to most Americans. That’s right, Cuba. You’ll hear about efforts to lift a decades-long ban on American travel to Cuba. And, you’ll hear what most US citizens are missing out on by not being able to explore the island.

The World has teamed up with travel publisher Lonely Planet to bring you a new audio podcast. The idea is to find interesting intersections between news and travel. Clark Boyd from The World will bring the news, and Robert Reid and Tom Hall from Lonely Planet will bring the travel. In our first episode, we tackle American hikers in Iran, and nostalgia tourism in what was once East Berlin.
