Shaun Keaveny presents the travel podcast that isn't going anywhere. Not until we're convinced these destinations are worth getting off the sofa for.


Your Place or Mine with Shaun Keaveny

Shaun Keaveny presents the travel podcast that isn’t going anywhere. Not until we’re convinced these destinations are worth getting off the sofa for.

Join Shaun as his guests try to convince him that it’s worth getting up off the sofa and seeing the world, giving us a personal guide to their favourite place on the planet. With resident geographer, historian and comedian Iszi Lawrence on hand to check out the facts, we’ll be warming back up to all the travel we’ve missed for the past two years, and trying to decide if it’s worth the hassle. Is getting on a plane now too much for our wallets and carbon footprint, or is seeing the world and experiencing new cultures something we can’t afford to miss?

Producers: Proinsias O’Coinn and Jen Whyntie

Your Place or Mine is a BBC Audio production for BBC Radio 4 and BBC Sounds.
