  • Great Podcast

    We are traveling to Ireland from the States for the first time with our 4 “kidults” and I’ve been learning a lot through this podcast. Jody is clearly incredibly knowledgeable about Ireland and we plan to follow a lot of her advice and book some of the resources she has shared!

  • Multi Generational First Timers

    Stumbled across Jody’s podcast as I hastily launch travel plans a few months out. I’m always hesitant to try travel podcasts as they’re often full of ads and filler, but this was a breath of fresh air. Jody is articulate and knowledgable, with practical, hands-on advice. I’m planning to listen to all the episodes before we go, and direct my family to do the same. What a find, especially when you’re starting from scratch and short on time!
