Adventure Travel Podcast – Big World Made Small Reviews

    I really appreciated the relaxed and natural flow of the conversation with Jason.

    Rather than staying on the surface, the podcast created space to explore the broader story behind what we are building in Kapchorwa.
  • Thank You Jason Elkins!

    I really appreciate the time Jason took to get to know what’s behind a LinkedIn profile or a work title, get to know more about me and make this such an enjoyable conversation where we laughed so much, time ran short and I made a new friend.

    Thank you!
  • This Podcast is a Real Treasure

    Listening to the stories shared in this podcast feels like visiting a secluded speakeasy, where I can finally gather with all the peers I’ve always dreamed of hanging out with.

    I just love the style you have as it is so laid back…It’s like listening to a conversation between two buddies while they catch up.

    Keep up the good work, and if TV or radio comes calling tell them you can’t let down your fan base.

  • It will be time well spent…

    Jason did a great job interviewing me for his podcast – he is relaxed and made me fell at ease and still asked deep and challenging questions.

    I had a good time and I got some insights into my own work.

    After recording, I reviewed my featured guest page and watched the sneak peek clip. Everything looks amazing — I love the bio, description, key takeaways, and the clip.

    Everything looked awesome. The summary information was spot-on, and the conversation sounded great. I

    ’m excited to share it on my website, in my newsletter, and through social media.

    Thank you for giving me such a positive first podcast experience! Could have talked to you for hours and hours.

    I don’t often tell my story, so I’m grateful for the opportunity to join some of the greats who’ve been on the Big World Made Small Podcast before me.
  • Part of my Listening Diet

    I’ll be honest, your podcast has been part of my listening diet for a while now.

    The conversations you curate sit at a depth that most tourism content doesn’t reach, and more than a few episodes have shaped how I think about where the industry is heading.

    I’ll keep listening.

  • Something New to Me

    Jason’s attention to detail before the session, and his cordial low-key approach as host made it relaxing and almost like chatting over a beverage vs having a camera and microphone going.

    I enjoyed the conversation and hope that others learn a little about the Florida Nature Coast and our most famous residents.
  • Thank You Jason…

    …for a great conversation and for sharing stories about the people behind so many amazing travel companies around the world.
    Julie Fishman
  • Much more personal…

    This conversation gave me the chance to reflect on where I come from, how the Chayote Lodge dream evolved, and why I continue to believe so strongly in the potential of responsible and sustainable tourism.

    A big thank you for creating the space for such a meaningful conversation

  • Beneath The Waves…

    So many people dream of turning what they love into what they do. This podcast is for anyone who’s ever wondered what it really takes to build a career from a passion; the highs, lows, risks and rewards that come with making that leap.

    Jason is a genuinely curious interviewer who has a real talent for digging a little deeper than most to create inspiring conversations that go beneath the waves.

  • Truly one of the Very Best.

    Being a guest was an outstanding experience. Jason has a unique ability to create conversations that are authentic, insightful, and genuinely enjoyable.

    It was a wonderful opportunity to share my philosophy that the most meaningful journeys are created through authentic hospitality, genuine human connections, and thoughtful care.
    Josué Agüero Solís
  • Really enjoyed my conversation…

    It felt more like having a chat with a friend over a coffee rather than recording a podcast. We covered a range of interesting topics and I hope those who listen learn something new about expedition cruising.

    Thanks Jason and looking forward to watching the BWMS podcast grow over the coming years!
  • All Looks Great

    I would like to compliment you for being a great host Jason, and I hope our humor and banter will make up for some of the Internet issues.
