TRAVEL NEWS – SHOES STAY ON AT AIRPORTS

TRAVEL NEWS – SHOES STAY ON AT AIRPORTS

Food Travel USA with Elizabeth Dougherty
Album: The TRUTH About Food and Travel 071225
Episode #: 1944
Original Broadcast Date: 07/12/25

Good news for travelers dreading TSA checkpoints—some airports are now letting you keep your shoes on. Thanks to updated scanning tech and PreCheck expansions, select terminals are reducing the undressing ritual. Elizabeth explains what airports qualify, how to take advantage, and why it’s still not a guarantee everywhere. While it’s a small change, it’s a welcome one for families and frequent flyers sick of fumbling at the gate. This segment looks at how travel security might be softening—but only for some. As always, the devil’s in the details when it comes to “streamlined” travel.


FOOD TRAVEL USA FAST FACTS

About the Show

Using the chassis of a food and travel show, Elizabeth Dougherty has carved out her own lane in Talk Radio, covering the contamination of the food supply and the travel restrictions placed upon us by an overreaching government. The show also covers data protection, self-sufficiency, and homesteading-related topics to help protect us from this evil, corrupt system. With Elizabeth as the host, the show has a very different sound from the typical male-oriented talk radio. In combination with terrestrial stations that carry the show, we reach people who don’t normally listen to politically-driven talk radio. In addition to the LIVE FEED of the show on Saturday afternoons from 5pm–7pm (Eastern) / 2pm–4pm (Pacific), we produce and distribute a dozen podcast segments each week.
