    I have been a fan of Chelsea’s YouTube videos for years and am finally diving into the podcast. Absolutely love the discussions and vibes of this podcast, it’s like I’m eavesdropping on their conversations and they’re hilarious to boot! Love getting more of James than sometimes you do in Chelsea’s videos. Keep up the great content!

  • My favourite podcast!

    I love this podcast. It’s informative, gives great realistic travel advice and is so entertaining too. So many times I’ve burst out laughing on my morning train, no doubt causing my fellow commuters to think I’m a weirdo. I really look forward to it each week. Highly recommend
