Hi everyone, this is Emma Weissmann, and welcome to another episode of Humans in the Hot Seat. This is actually a bonus episode — it’s coming out the day before Thanksgiving, which is a bit unusual for us, but this topic was an especially timely one. We'll hear from Kari Dillon, the owner of Marvelous Mouse Travels, the agency behind the viral “In My Eras” Taylor Swift-themed cruise that has recently hit the world by storm.

Now, if you know me in real life, you know I’m a huge Swiftie, so of course I immediately reached out to Dillon to learn more about it. We'll hear how the cruise came about, what went into creating this cruise, and what Dillon wants other travel agents to know about planning this type of affinity cruise, and then going viral. I hope you enjoy.
