Travel Radio Programs

• Rudy Maxa on NPR's Marketplace.  Now off the air.  

• The Savvy Traveler.  Now off the air.  "Despite the sincere and constant effort of our committed production staff, after nearly seven years of trying, The Savvy Traveler failed to attract sufficient underwriting support to continue. This was due to the economy in general, and the travel economy in particular -- especially in the post 9/11 period."  

• The Travel Minute.  "The Travel Minute is a daily, one minute radio report produced in association with Potomac View Communications... In 1995, Ken Robinson created The Travel Minute, as a short form radio program. Nearly 4 million listeners tune into the program weekly on radio stations across the country (and Puerto Rico). Sponsors have included Amtrak, the Mobil Travel Guide, CompuServ, the Luggage & Leather Goods Manufacturers of America, and Centerseat.com."  Comment:  Centerseat.com is a non-functional URL that appears to be for sale.    

• Travel World Radio Show.  "Join Montreal's most experienced travel broadcaster, Stephen Pickford, and the wackiest man behind a travel microphone, Willem Bagchus, for 'Travel World,' syndicated across America by Nascor International, providers of innovative lifestyles programming for leading news-talk stations.
  
  Plus, be sure to tune in Monday-to-Friday during morning and afternoon drive for 'Travel World Reports', and keep up to date with the latest in travel news, tips, and personalized info designed to make your business and vacation travel easier.
  
  Join an array of prominent Media Correspondents from across Canada and the United States -- such as former CTV National News anchor Vic Phillips, KCCI Des Moines' Cynthia Fodor, and WNCN Raleigh's Sharon Delaney � as they discuss their favourite travel destinations, with personal insights and travel info only provided by someone who has experienced the destination --- truly 'friends sharing travel with friends.'"  Comment:  Past radio shows are archived on their site and available for listening. 

• Traveler's Journal.  "The Traveler's Journal is a collection of more than 1000, two-minute "audio postcards" from the wide world of travel. Available both in Real Audio and text versions, these programs will transport you to destinations near and far. They will help you get more miles for your money and more enjoyment out of your travels."
