Reviews
- Stop the background music
Yes there are far too many adverts but the background music is the most jarring thing about this show. Otherwise very useful and interesting podcast.

On that latest episode I listened to the first 4 minutes were all ads. Total turnoff.
Apple Podcasts2ViperdudeukUnited Kingdom2 months ago - Advert SPAMMING
Great insight into the travel industry with great content, tips and advice but the ratio of advertisements to Podcast airtime is way too unbalanced. If you listen to episodes back to back as I do, you will spend far too much time using the fast forward button to avoid the constant, repetitive adverts.
