On today’s episode of The Last Trip, we’re joined by Kami Kirschbaum, founder of The Safe Civilian, a company creating protective clothing designed to look like everyday fashion.
After experiencing a devastating loss at a young age, Kami began looking at personal safety in an entirely different way. Now, she’s on a mission to help people protect themselves from the unexpected. From the hidden dangers travelers often overlook to the split-second decisions that could mean the difference between life and death, Kami is joining us to share what everyone should know before their next trip. Because sometimes, the most dangerous part of a vacation is the threat you never saw coming.
Listen as we dive into The Safe Civilian, getting to know Kami Kirschbaum, and how to stay alive on vacation.

In March of 2018, 46-year-old Bartt Felt was driving from Michigan to Arizona to visit his father.  But while passing through a remote stretch of Utah, something went wrong.
His ankle monitor last pinged near the Mexican Hat Bridge, where his backpack and a troubling note were later discovered.  His vehicle was found abandoned miles away in the Valley of the Gods.  But Bartt was gone.
For the next five years, no one knew what happened to him — or what took place during his final hours in the Utah desert.
Listen as we dive into the Valley of the Gods, the case of Bartt Felt, and how to stay alive on vacation.

Last week, we followed childhood friends Casey MacPherson-Pomeroy and Caleb Guillory to Anguilla, where a New Year’s trip ended in two sudden and deeply mysterious deaths. What first looked like a possible overdose quickly became something much harder to explain. Both men reportedly had lethal levels of drugs in their systems. But Caleb also had injuries that pointed to something far more violent. The four people who survived that night were questioned, released, and eventually returned to the United States. 
And that’s where Part Two begins. Because once everyone came home, the story started changing. Secrets surfaced. Families became suspicious. Private investigators got involved. And a $1.5 million life-insurance policy would eventually drag the mystery into federal court. Today, we’re digging into everything that happened after Anguilla — and the theories about what really happened that night.

In December 2018, childhood friends Casey MacPherson-Pomeroy and Caleb Guillory were together on the Caribbean island of Anguilla — surrounded by white sand, turquoise water, and people they trusted. On the night of December 30th, they went out for drinks. Hours later, both men were dead.
At first, it appeared something they consumed may have been responsible.  But when the toxicology results came back — and the details surrounding their deaths began to emerge — the story became much darker.
Two friends. One night in paradise.  This is Part One of Casey and Caleb's story.

Twice, Hannah Upp disappeared.  And twice, against incredible odds, she was found alive. After her second disappearance, Hannah moved to St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands, where she built a new life in a place she called paradise. For years, there were no more episodes.
Then, in September 2017, Hurricane Irma devastated the island.  In the chaotic days that followed, 32-year-old Hannah Upp vanished for a third time. But this time, Hannah wouldn't simply reappear a few days later. This is the third and final chapter of the mysterious disappearance of Hannah Upp.

Last week, we told you the story of Hannah Upp, a 23-year-old teacher who mysteriously disappeared in New York City in 2008. Nearly three weeks later, Hannah was found alive in New York Harbor with no memory of where she'd been or what she'd been doing.  Doctors diagnosed her with dissociative fugue, and Hannah eventually returned to her life, hoping it would never happen again. For five years, it didn't.
Then, in September 2013, Hannah was living and working in Maryland when she suddenly disappeared again. Was it happening again? This is Part Two of the mysterious story of Hannah Upp.
Listen as we dive into Maryland, the case of Hannah Upp, and how to stay alive on vacation.

In the summer of 2008, 23-year-old teacher Hannah Upp was living in New York City when she suddenly vanished.
There was no warning, no explanation, and seemingly no reason for Hannah to walk away from her life. Her family and friends had no idea where she had gone—or what might have happened to her. As the days passed, strange clues began to surface,  but instead of providing answers, they only deepened the mystery. Where was Hannah Upp? And how could a young woman simply disappear in one of the busiest cities in the world?
This is part one of Hannah's story.

In February of 1978, nineteen-year-old Mary Frances Gregory left Ontario for what was supposed to be a road trip to California. But she never made it.
The man traveling with her later said they crossed the United States together before he left Mary at a bus station in Las Vegas. 
But there’s a problem. Almost everything we know about Mary’s final days comes from him. No confirmed bus ticket. No verified sighting in Las Vegas. No arrival in California. And nearly fifty years later, we still don’t know where along that journey Mary actually disappeared.
Listen as we dive into rural 1978 Las Vegas, the case of Mary Frances Gregory, and how to stay alive on vacation.

Graham Norris Horne was 21 years old when he disappeared in rural Virginia. On August 15, 2024, Graham was traveling with a faith-based group when they stopped for gas at a truck stop in Bracey.  According to investigators, there was some kind of disagreement. Graham walked away. He didn’t have a phone. He didn’t know the area. And he had no known ties to the community.
But what happened next would turn a missing-person case into something far more disturbing. Weeks later, workers at a church about six miles away noticed a terrible smell coming from an old well. At the bottom, they found Graham.
Investigators would eventually treat his death as a homicide. But questions remain about what happened after Graham left that truck stop—and how he ended up at the bottom of a well outside a church. Was Graham’s death a tragic accident? Did he encounter someone after walking away? And what, if anything, did the people he had been traveling with know about his disappearance?

On March 31st, 2007, 32-year-old Nicole Vienneau left her hotel in Hama, Syria, for a day of sightseeing. She was nearing the end of a six-month solo backpacking trip through West Africa and the Middle East, and nothing about that morning suggested it would be any different from the countless others she had spent exploring on her own. Nicole left her belongings behind and walked out of the hotel. She was never seen again. No confirmed sightings. No clear trail. No explanation.  Somewhere in Hama, Nicole Vienneau seemingly vanished into thin air.

In January of 2019, 20-year-old Finnish backpacker, Aleksis Nikitin traveled alone to Tioman Island—a remote tropical paradise off the coast of Malaysia. Only days after arriving, he was reportedly planning to hike through the rainforest to a secluded waterfall. But sometime that day, Aleksis disappeared. Back at the home where he was staying, his belongings were left behind—including his passport and wallet. There was no sign that he had packed up, no indication that he planned to leave the island, and no explanation for where he had gone. Search teams combed the jungle. Dogs reportedly picked up his scent along a trail.  But then…the trail went cold.
