Travel is a grand adventure to me. So I love talking with other adventurers. One such person is Carl Asch. He's a musician and juggler named Giacomo the Juggler. He sings with the band Empty Hats. He is also the co-founder with Paolo Garbanzo of Ren Adventurers, a tour company that takes you on small European trips much like my Celtic Invasion Vacations. But today, I wanted to talk to Carl about a bicycle trip he did across Italy.

In this episode we'll explore:

  • The origins of Giacomo the Jester
  • How juggling, magic, and street performing can take you around the globe
  • Double Indemnity and Empty Hats
  • How to write a compelling show for Renaissance festivals
  • Bicycling from Sicily to Venice following places mentioned in Shakespeare's plays
  • Shakespeare's Guide to Italy
  • Some of the trips on the Ren Adventures
  • Find out more about Carl Asch
  • Three more weekends of Sherwood Forest Faire
