Oftentimes I will finish listening to their podcast, and then turn around and do a Live video of my own. My clients love when I do that, and...”Read full review »

“UPDATE: I’m updating this review as new hosts have taken over the podcast and they’re 100x more professional than Mark.
As a Travel Agent, I really want to like this podcast. I love Mark’s stance on using Travel Agents and his advocacy for common sense travel tips. However his attitude of “I’m...”Read full review »

You cut through all the BS and fake news, so that we, as agents and consumers, can make more informed decisions.

“I like that Mark delivers travel news so casually and uses his own personal experiences to back it up. He swears and he makes jokes, and it’s great. If you (understandably) want polished travel news based more on data and official reports, that’s what the TravelPulse website is for. The podcast...”Read full review »

“This podcast is great for actual facts about travel. Mark Murphy is blunt and to the point. The only thing I would change is that he does swear sometimes which prohibits me from listening to it when my kids are in the car. I’m sure that makes me a social media loser! 😉”
