A true legend- Glen consulted us on our first trailer build and was a massive help and very generous with his time, was great to meet him in person then at the UK sauna summit, and absolutely love listening to the podcast.

United Kingdom3 months ago - Great host. Great discussion. Great show.
No one represents sauna culture in North America better than Glenn Auerbach. He lives the life and walks the talk. If you love sauna, or even if you’re just getting into it, this show will draw you in. Health, stress management, science, travel, culture, construction… this podcast covers sauna from every angle. Can’t rate this show high enough.

Glen is THE Sauna guru of our generation. His knowledge and passion for Sauna Culture is evident from the first listen. On top of that, his interviews and guests are great! I’ve been listening to the podcast for years and still enjoy it each episode immensely! Thanks Glen
Apple Podcasts5Tbliss12United Statesa year ago There is talking about everything, expect sauna.
Podcast Addict22 years agoCyclorbit- This show built my sauna!
It really did. From growing up visiting the YMCA sauna, to a railway town wood fired sauna, the odd home made sweat lodge… I thought I knew sauna. Until I found this show and Glenn’s book.i’ve now got a great sauna at home with good heat, steam and ventilation. The show has introduced me to the broader sauna culture and techniques. I’ve learned something important from each episode.4 out of 5 stars, because even as Glen admits, he has some challenges with recording trchnology.
Keep it going Gl... more
