Ian & Justine| Life after Globe Trekker

Saison 1 · Épisode 6

jeudi 19 mars 2026 • Durée 43:28

In Episode 6, Part 1, Ian and Justine pulled back the curtain on what it was really like to have "The Best Job in the World." Now, in Part 2, Ian & Justine are back to tell us what they've been up to since hosting #globetrekker .

Ian, never one to stay still for long, went on to host a string of raucous, irreverent #travel shows that felt tailor-made for his infectious energy. Between adventures he retreated to his studio in Norfolk, #England, where a lifelong devotion to drawing, painting, sewing, and making has remained his quiet constant — a creative anchor through decades of wandering.

Justine embraced motherhood, raising her son while channeling her curiosity about the world into documentary filmmaking. Her films include #promises — an intimate portrait of #palestinian and #jewish children navigating life in Israel and the #westbank — earned an #academyaward nomination and won two #emmyawards and continues to be the most widely used documentary film in classrooms and think tanks on the subject of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.

And then, as life tends to do, the years filled up with everything in between — the extraordinary and the mundane, adventures and misadventures, setbacks, joy and the quieter weight of loss and change. In 2025 Ian and Justine reunited to launch Our Looney Planet.

Yes, there is life after #globetrekker . A lot of it.

Ian & Justine | CUBA

Saison 1 · Épisode 4

jeudi 18 décembre 2025 • Durée 49:51

In Episode 4, Ian and Justine travel to Cuba—a country now nearly impossible for U.S. citizens to visit due to strict travel restrictions. Despite the barriers, Our Looney Planet takes you there. Join Ian and Justine for a lively, intimate conversation with Cuban journalist Liz Oliva Fernández, whose stories and documentary footage lead us far off the beaten path and deep into one of the world’s most authentic, resilient, and remarkably preserved cultures.

Together, Liz, Ian, and Justine unpack what Cuba is really like today in a conversation that swings effortlessly from the serious to the giggle-inducing, enriched by striking archival footage from Ian’s Globe Trekker Cuba episode, filmed back in 1995.

And if Cuba ever needs a British ambassador, Ian Wright is clearly ready for the post. Barely able to stay seated, his enthusiasm for the island is utterly unbridled. Having traveled to Cuba many times for both work and pleasure, Ian joins Liz in transporting us from Cuba’s extraordinary history straight into its vibrant, complicated present.

Liz Oliva Fernández is a Cuban producer and journalist, and the host of the award-winning documentary series Belly of the Beast: The War Against Cuba, for which she received a Gracie Award from the Alliance for Women in Media in Hollywood. She has also hosted the documentaries Uphill on the Hill and Hardliner on the Hudson.

Throughout her career, she has interviewed figures such as Pulitzer Prize–winning author Alice Walker, Colombian Vice President Francia Márquez, U.S. economist Jeffrey Sachs, U.S. Congressman Jim McGovern, and Elián González.

In addition, Liz has appeared on programs including Democracy Now!, CBS Miami, and BBC News. She has also conducted numerous speaking tours across the United States, delivering lectures and screening her documentaries at venues such as MIT, Stanford University, the University of Minnesota, Howard University, UCLA, Trinity Church in Chicago, and La Peña Cultural Center in Berkeley, among others.

Saison 1 · Épisode 3

vendredi 28 novembre 2025 • Durée 59:07

In this delicious episode, Bobby Chinn - chef, restauranteur, and global tv food expert joins Ian and Justine to discuss? Food of course, and not just any food, but those unique and protein rich dishes that Globe Trekker loved so much. As our intrepid duo relive their most challenging mouthfuls, Bobby reveals the history and meaning behind some of the world’s most traditional dishes. So, dig in. It’s going to be truly scrumptious!

“I accidentally became a chef, but I was born a traveller.” Bobby Chinn

Guest: Chef Bobby Chinn is a true citizen of the world and his nomadic life journey has so far taken him from New Zealand to the Middle East via the UK, the US and South East Asia. With every new country he discovered a new culinary adventure, while at home his Sino-Egyptian heritage provided a deeper foundation for his interest in, and eventual passion for, all things ‘food’.

Over the last decade, Bobby has established himself as a mainstay of the global food-channel networks including Discovery TLC, MBC, Globe Trekker, Food Network, CNN, BBC, Channel 4 UK and UKTV, and in addition to World Café he has solo hosted Bobby Chinn Cooks Asia, Detox and Restaurant Bobby Chinn, for which he was nominated for ‘Best Reality Show - Executive Producer’ (Asia Television Awards, 2012).

Bobby has worked alongside some of the world’s leading TV food personalities including Keith Floyd, Martha Stewart, Anthony Bourdain, Antony Worrall Thompson and Andrew Zimmern, and he is now a tenured expert judge on ‘Top Chef Middle East’, one of MBC’s highest rated programmes and the most popular culinary show across the Middle East and North Africa.
