Drew Binsky - Borders, Risk, and Visiting Every Country on Earth Before Age 30 (Part 2) - Ep 1 Sz 2

In Part 2, travel content creator Drew Binsky continues his conversation with entertainment lawyer Anita Sharma, diving into the realities of full-time travel creation, the most dangerous situations he's faced, and what visiting all 197 countries taught him about humanity. Drew opens up about balancing documentation with experience, why Anthony Bourdain remains his biggest inspiration, and getting stuck in Pakistan for a week when India attacked Kashmir 20 miles away. We discuss the high-stakes Pakistan story that didn't perform well, the wettest city on Earth video (Meghalaya, India) that hit 7 million views, and how he manages burnout with strategic on/off periods. This episode explores why Iran is his favorite country (breaking every stereotype), getting stuck in a coup in Guinea (his least favorite), what cultural values he wishes America would adopt, and his future plans including tennis and having kids in the next few years.
