FLY Travel: What is the FLY Travel Podcast? Information on FLY Podcast

Melissa sitting behind a microphone, smiling, writing some notes. — Getting ready for my next FLY guest.

I remember someone telling me at the age of 20 that I should go to radio school. I was very disillusioned with my sociology major, wondering why I was taking this subject, and how it would serve me.

The thought of a life in radio sent shockwaves through my body, the proverbial lightbulb going off. As Marie Kondo would say, the idea sparked joy. As we do, I quickly succumbed to the paralyzing inertia of youth, falling prey to a lack of confidence, peer comparisons, and overthinking. Naturally, I pursued further studies in advertising and market research.

There isn’t only one chance in life to do the things we are meant to do. This is where I welcome you to the FLY Travel Radio Podcast, with me, your host, Melissa Rodway! This podcast is a mélange of so many things; my love of travel and adventure, a lifetime of wanting to explore a career in broadcasting, and my unyielding desire to ask people unique and thought provoking questions about their lives. I have finally sparked my joy.

The FLY Travel Radio Podcast is a safe place for travellers and adventurers to share their untold stories. It is a space for travel companies to discuss a remote tour, a platform for entrepreneurs to celebrate their amazing new travel underwear (which will undoubtedly change all of our lives), and the place for authors to promote their book about cycling around the world for a year. From day one, it has been my goal to find interesting people, off-the-beaten-path tales, and inspiring journeys. That will never change.

The complete FLY Travel Radio Podcast collection can be found on SoundCloud. Most recent shows can be heard on iTunes. With over 160 episodes, there is so much for you to explore.

Testimonial

“We had an amazing time on our two appearances with Melissa at FLY radio. Her questions were informed and thoughtful and she made us feel comfortable and relaxed. Each time were were guests, we felt that we could easily communicate and promote our website and upcoming projects in a fun and conversational way. FLY was one of our best radio experiences and we’d happily be a guest of Melissa’s anytime!”
