Apple Podcasts3PrintmediarefugeeUnited Kingdom10 months ago - A pleasant informative podcast by a respected expert.
A most informative, balanced review of current developments and trends in the travel industry by the doyen of said industry.
As for the background music, I rather like it. Without doubt, when I listen, there can be no doubt which podcast it is.
Simon has an easy presentation manner which makes this a definite daily listen for me.
