ALAN WARMAN was one of Ibiza's very first club promoters working alongside the late Tommy Mack in the late 80's & early 90's on nights such as Mad Mondays at Ku & Pacha, Wild Wednesday at Amnesia and Black & White at Es Paradis. Before Superstar DJ's and social media ruled the roost it was club promoters whose job it was to fill Ibiza's superclubs using all the tools at their disposal and the story started in the late 80's with Alan & Tommy. An amusing trip down memory lane and an important story in the evolution of Ibiza as the clubbing capital of the world.

A personal chat with WAYNE LINEKER. From teenage market trader to a business empire that continues to go from strength to strength. At times a polarising figure but here he tells his story in raw detail in his own unique style which may take some by surprise. From Tenerife bar owner to his time in prison - which unknowingly changed the dynamic within his family - to arriving in Ibiza and opening one of the most famous beach clubs in the world. Essential listening especially for those with preconceived opinions.

CHRISTMAS SPECIAL: The Mayor of San Antonio - MARCOS SERRA - joins me for a personal chat about life at the helm of one of the most famous towns in the world. From humble beginnings, a surprising move into politics in 2015 paved the way for him to become Mayor in 2019 at the age of 39 and re-election in 2023. He opens up about his work/life balance as a new father, bringing christmas back to Ibiza's 2nd largest town and the challenges of trying to initiate a change in the tourism model of San Antonio including the famous West End. A fascinating insight into life at the sharp end of Ibiza politics, where it's impossible to please everybody and every day comes with a new challenge.

A truly fascinating chat with JULIAN COBBY about his journey from East Worthing to IBIZA via Belfast & Germany. A complicated childhood led him to joining the army at 16, and with it a steep learning curve, arriving in Ibiza in 1989 as a holiday rep for CLUB 18-30 followed by over 25 years working in the heart of San Antonio's famous WEST END and a front row seat for the seismic changes that the White Isle was going through. Now running TABERNA CEBO, his latest challenge is looking after his young son who has a rare genetic disability. An uplifting & and at times emotional story.

Great to chat with Paul Reynolds about his incredible journey from a DJ in Southport's Bar Non to playing alongside some of the biggest names in the music world as resident DJ at Ushuaia & Hi Ibiza via the West End of San Antonio and Plastik. Paul is energetic, frank & honest at all times recounting moments that changed his life, such as the seminal 2016 Space closing party and his first ever gig at an Ibiza superclub. This is essential listening for music devotees and Ibiza lovers alike and proof that if you love something enough and you have the talent, you can succeed.

Ep6 - The boys are back TALKING BALEARICS. No prizes for guessing which island has the most expensive hotels in Spain but you may be surprised which town has the most expensive rental prices in the Balearics. Is Palma morphing into a genuine 12 month destination competing against the likes of Barcelona & will free public transport continue even though the cost is 43M EUR? Should PMI Palma airport be re-named after a sporting icon & what is the 'new' food offering sweeping Ibiza in winter?

We are the only english speaking podcast covering the incredible Balearic Islands which has almost 4 million annual UK visitors & a thriving expat population.
