Customer Reviews
Old traveller
Don't know who the folks are who put this series together but they are able to provide insight far beyond the old tired tourist scene in SE Asia. Each podcast is well focused and chock full of interesting stuff. I really enjoyed reading them and look forward to many more.
Good stuff!
Great fun
It's been a lot of fun launching this podcast. We aim to put you in touch with regional experts every two weeks.
Hoping you enjoy it as much as I do.
Fresh South East Asia Perspectives
Daniel and Scott are easy on the ears, well informed and so far bring a great selection of guests and a nice variety of topics. I've traveled more than a dozen times to South East Asia since 1992 spending almost two years in the area and even for me these Planet Asia Podcasts bring fresh perspectives and inspiration for experiencing the region.
