Dave Foley: The Sensible Traveler

Travel Blog  •  Eva Holland  •  08.17.09 | 4:04 PM ET

The Canadian comedian, who you might remember from “Kids in the Hall” or “NewsRadio,” is the star of a new web series: The Sensible Guy’s Guide to Traveling. Each short segment shows Foley, as the ostensibly sensible traveler Bobby Fargo, offering a series of themed travel tips—and then finding himself in hot water despite his best efforts. I wasn’t busting a gut during the “unintended consequences” portions of each clip, but seasoned travelers will probably get a chuckle out of Foley’s straight-faced delivery of often-outrageous advice.

I love Dave Foley and KITH. I watched the Tipping and the Backpacking episodes - hilarious. Good stuff Eva, thanks for bringing my attention to this!
