“I only have discovered this podcast about six months ago, and I discovered it probably like everybody else does when I began to plan my first royal Caribbean cruise, which is coming up in June 2023 to Alaska… Matt Hochberg is an enthusiastic, thorough host, who rarely belabors any subject to the...”Read full review »

“I listened to the interview with the meterologist and it was interesting. The question section at the end was too hard to listen to. Matt was flying through his comments so fast that I couldn't understand him. It was annoying and I turned the show off.”Read full review »

“Love the podcasts and the you tube channel. You do not need the steel drum music. Too distracting. Please consider eliminating the music.

“Matt, I appreciate your try here but a couple things. First, when you interview someone come up with better questions than, “tell me about… or talk about.” It’s lazy journalism. Secondly, turn the crappy steel drums down. They’re louder than you!”

“Not sure if Matt wants to hear this but much of his content is more than Royal Caribbean. Even if you are not much of a cruiser. I enjoy his content so much. I have learned useful information about cruising as a whole and about ports. What to do when cruising. What to think about.”

“I’m a periodic Royal Caribbean cruiser, but that’s not why I’m addicted to RCCL Blog. Host Matt Hochberg is an amazing communicator. I spend hours listening to (and watching on YouTube) him talk about ships, many of which I will probably never sail on. He is just that much fun to listen to! But...”Read full review »

“This is a must-listen for all Royal Caribbean cruise fans. So professional, so informative, so entertaining you’d think it was done by the cruise line itself but because it’s independent you get the real story good, bad or otherwise.
Going on a cruise, researching ships, or just a fan of...”Read full review »
