We're so excited to launch Season 8, and we’re kicking things off with something our listeners have been asking for: more timely, practical industry data and insights they can actually use.

In our Season 8 premiere, we’re launching the Monthly Travel Trends Report, a new recurring feature designed to cut through the headlines and take a closer look at the trends, data and shifts shaping travel right now. For our first edition, Dan is joined by Max Tremaine, CEO of Sherpa, and Marius Nigond, CEO and Co-founder of iWander and a member of the Travel Trends Advisory team.

Then, we head somewhere completely different.

Sam Seward, President of Quark Expeditions, joins Dan from Quark’s Toronto office for a closer look at the world of polar travel.
