Birthday Trips, Phoning for Holidays & the Art of ‘Panic and Pay

Season 4, Ep. 3

Is James the only person on earth who still books a holiday over the phone? Maybe. Has Chelsea got advice on how to cope with being the ‘planner’ on a group holiday? Definitely. James also shares his mantra for approaching holidays (spoiler alert: it involves ‘panic’) and a listener shares a train related holiday nightmare during a trip to India.
