Show Notes

Fritzli and I just landed in Zurich. We're on the train to Bern, where we'll switch to the Zweisimmen train. Then comes the little train that slowly curls up the mountains to Gstaad.

Speaking of Gstaad, check out Gstaad Guy's new podcast.

If you haven’t discovered him yet, Gstaad Guy is this 28-year old mystery creator behind Instagram's parody of luxury life. Through his characters Constance (a snobbish Brit) and Colton (his crypto-obsessed American cousin), he mocks the ultra-wealthy while filming my hometown.

What started as funny videos shared with friends while working his Apple day job has turned into a million-dollar business. I love his approach of not taking yourself too seriously and finding joy in life's absurdities.
