Inspiring travel stories for your ears whether at a desk or in the road.
Great show, Tony. I listen to a lot of radio and podcast conversations. In this day and age of attention-seeking social media personalities, it’s refreshing to listen to a host who doesn’t natter on about himself and asks good questions of the interviews.
What a great idea and what a perfect position to be in as a hostel owner with access to a rotating array of interesting people. Thanks for sharing!
