June 30: Road-Tripping to America's Ballparks with Travis Parker

6:00 p.m. PT / 9:00 p.m. ET | REGISTER

For many Americans, a baseball team's ballpark is as important to its identity as the players on the field: When we think baseball, we also think Fenway Park and Yankee Stadium. Travis Parker is a ballpark guru who writes about the evolution, design, and eternal cultural appeal of ballparks that makes die-hard fans yearn to "see them all." Together, we take a tour through America's ballpark history, tracing how baseball went from glorified cow pastures to modernist structures, like Miami's loanDepot Park — with stops at iconic stadiums like Polo Grounds, Wrigley Field, and the Astrodome along the way.

Monday Night Travel - London

Rick returns to Monday Night Travel to share photos and stories from his three trips so far this year: filming in Rome and Istanbul; guidebook research in Barcelona, Prague, and London; and a return journey to London for more time on camera. Along the way, Rick shares his take on travel news and trends for Europe-bound travelers. Plus, he throws in a few stateside surprises too. 2025 has been an amazing year at Rick Steves' Europe, and Rick is excited to share it with you.

Monday Night Travel - Dresden

July 21: Dresden with Seema Prakash

6:00 p.m. PT / 9:00 p.m. ET | REGISTER

Dresden's bewitching baroque architecture and phoenix-from-the-ashes history captured the heart of Seema Prakash when she first visited the city in 2009. She decided then and there to move from her native India to "Florence on the Elbe." Now a local guide, Seema joins us for a tour of Dresden starting in Altstadt, the beautifully reconstructed Old Town. After admiring the fairytale treasures of Zwinger Palace, we cross the river into edgy, proudly counter-cultural Neustadt. To round out our adventure, we daytrip to nearby Saxon Switzerland National Park to hike beneath towering sandstone cliffs.

Two Baltic Gems: Helsinki & Tallinn with Ben Green

This event was recorded on June 23, 2025.

Separated by a two-hour ferry, Helsinki and Tallinn are not only neighbors, but soul sisters. These two capitals share an east-meets-west mélange of cultures, a spirit of resilience, and a deep love of saunas. Resident east-of-the-Rhine expert Ben Green is ready to share his perfect two-city itinerary. In Helsinki, we join Finns on the historic fort Suomenlinna and commemorate their struggle for independence, while in Tallinn we ramble picturesque medieval walls and soak in a hipster reincarnation of a Soviet warehouse district. Hop in the sauna with us for a journey to beautiful Baltic Europe!
