On Location With Atomics Travels

Corey Starks grew up in Charlotte in closed off neighborhoods and says expanding his horizons through travel changed the way he sees everything. Now living in Atlanta for nine years, he showed up to the Muddy Dash because his brother sent him a link and said let's do something together. That is how Omegas move. He sits down with Peuge before the race to talk about what it feels like to explore the world with your brothers versus al...

Jackson Riggins came to the Muddy Dash outside Atlanta because he needed to get out of the four walls. He had not run since his grandmother passed the day before Valentine's Day. Before that, three years ago, doctors handed him two options: get on a transplant list or try a treatment that may or may not work. He chose to fight. He survived. And he built a podcast called Fueled by Pain to make sure nobody going through something sim...

Before the mud, before the obstacles, before any of that, Peuge grabs Eric and Shawn for a quick conversation at the starting line of the Muddy Dash outside Atlanta. Two Florida natives who found the event through Instagram and the fitness community, they talk travel, bucket lists, and what it felt like to see a different way of life up close in Jamaica and the Bahamas. Eric has Haiti and Ghana on his list next. Shawn is just ready...

Kashif has been a multimedia professional since he was five years old. Today he manages all distribution and production for the Social Proof Podcast and is finally launching a show of his own. The Fat Her Podcast is built around one powerful idea: fathers and husbands sharpening each other in conversation, while women who missed out on a relationship with their father get to witness it and find something restored. He sits down with...

Jeremy saw a gap nobody was filling: Black entrepreneurs building real businesses in their communities with no platform to share their story. Good on Brand Podcast became his answer, an interview series focused on the journey, the lessons, and the brand-building process of smaller business owners who deserve a spotlight. He sits down with Peuge at the Podcast Summit in Atlanta to talk about what brought him to the summit, why commu...

Shaun Thompson drove six and a half hours from McComb, Mississippi to Atlanta for the Podcast Summit because she knew her community needed more than what they were getting. A Chicago transplant now deeply invested in her small town, Shaun is building a podcast and platform around the Macomb Mainstreet Association to bring grants, resources, and economic development information directly to the people who need it most. She sits down ...

Sandra Singh and Tash Colette walked into the Podcast Summit in Atlanta with a booth, a concept, and a name that stops people in their tracks. Bust Down Jesus and Everything In Between is built on one rule: every guest has to show their bust down, which is whatever makes them feel most like themselves, whether that is a broach, a pair of glasses, or the desire for knowledge. Sandra and Tash sit down with Peuge to talk about why the...

Hey everyone! Today, I had the pleasure of chatting with Patricia Morgan at the Podcast Summit. We dove deep into her booth, Podcast Gods, which is all about building a community for podcasters.

She’s not just about creating content; she’s about creating connections and helping others find their voice in t...

Sharon Kelly spent 14 years in radio before the cost pushed her toward podcasting. Now the Chattanooga-based registered nurse runs an assisted living facility, an in-home personal care operation, and an adult day program, and uses her podcast to reach the caregivers nobody is talking to. At the Podcast Summit in Atlanta, she sits down with Peuge to talk about what it actually takes to be consistent as a solo podcaster, why communit...

AJ Nunnally builds homes for a living and wants to build knowledge for a community. The Virginia-based developer and mortgage planner behind GBF Construction sat down with Peuge at the Podcast Summit in Atlanta to talk about why he came to the summit, what is holding him back from launching his podcast, and why accountability is the one thing that changes everything for entrepreneurs who keep getting in their own way.

At a Blaque Roots showcase in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn, Peuge connects with Nakeeba artist, mother, cultural carrier, and daughter of legendary reggae artist Sister Carol.

On Location is what happens when an introvert decides to stop watching the world from the corner and actually step into it. Hosted by Peuge Benjamin of Atomics Travels, this series is built on one simple premise: the best conversations happen when you show up somewhere real and talk to the people already there.

No studios. No pre-booked guests. No scripts. Just Peuge — traveling city to city, event to event — spotting i...
