Reviews

4.7 out of 5 stars from 35 ratings
  • Good podcast

    Really appreciate the uploads, only issue is when the full show is uploaded some weeks it can be rather glitchy, it’s almost like bits of audio is cut out or skipped and it can be rather annoying. Some weeks the full show can be over 3hr 40 mins yet others it’ll be just on 3hrs and it sounds rather choppy. Something to work on.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Travel - Quentin Long with Pat Panetta - Sat 18 Apr, 2026
Q: Quentin, if a little kiddie walked up to you in the street and said, should I get into the travel industry? Do you think it's a good idea?
Quentin emphasizes that travel remains a dynamic and resilient sector with continual opportunities, but cautions about potential short-term volatility due to geopolitical events and policy changes, recommending a long-term, adaptable approach rather than chasing every trend.
Travel - Quentin Long with Pat Panetta - Sat 18 Apr, 2026
Q: The entry-exit system in Europe, is there something changing there we need to know about?
Quentin explains the EES rollout across 29 European countries, where biometric checks including facial scans and fingerprinting are now common at entry points, and notes that while this can cause some delays, it should feel similar to the visa/photo checks done when exiting Australia. Travelers should allow for extra time and know that data is renewed every three years.
