*On the Sunday, January 1st, 2023 edition of The Travel Guys…*

- In the **Travel News**, Carnival Cruise Lines names Emeril Lagasse as Chief Culinary Officer; and Southwest Airlines, while back in the sky, now has to try and make nearly a million customers whole.
- Our New Year's Day show features two of our **favorite interviews from the year gone by**. The first features a **traveling nurse**. During COVID these folks who go "where the need is" have been a critical part of the medical system. What better place then a travel show to showcase this profession.
- **Nevada** has a lot of really interesting and quirky places to visit. One is even it's own country. Sort of. The back half of the show features a bunch of places you'll want to add to your "let's go there" list.
