When you go on vacation are you really on "vacation"? Or did you simply spend a lot of money to relocate your regular life to another destination? Dar discusses a conversation about just this with a friend and his wife who while on vacation were complaining about a lack of adventure in their life.

Dar returns from a short walkabout to discuss the time he was fired in his mid-20's and how at that moment the decision to make a lifestyle change...something most people deem impossible...initiated the great adventure he has been on ever since.

Dar discusses the story behind the birth of "Champagne Monday".

Is a trip to Maine worth it? Dar returns from a trip to the Pine Tree State to tell the story of his trip along with his opinion on whether a trip to the "first state that sees the sunrise" is really worth it.

Dar remembers the time he almost drowned off the southern coast of Italy.

Dar discusses the ancient upper-class game of Bocce and remembers the time he found himself thrust into a ferocious tournament.

In a world obsessed with "the grind", the art of leisure has been lost. Remember, laziness and leisure are two very different things.

Dar introduces both the "Microadventure" and the legendary Chet Danger.

Dar decides to end his story in Los Angeles. He ultimately finds out he is not the storyteller he fancies himself to be.

While enjoying a cappuccino at Caffe Reggio in Manhattan, a mysterious man changes Dar's life.
