Ep3 - Richie gets on his high horse about lack of flood warnings in Mallorca especially after the tragic Sant Llorenc floods of 2018, Martin scratches the Tourist Tax itch after his local Town Hall applies for 18 million euros & the boys talk about local youth football and the worrying escalation in aggressive behaviour which resulted in a surprising outcome for Richie's son and that old chestnut of Balearic winter tourism and flight connections is on the agenda with some surprising statistics while they both get stuck in to the World Travel Market which takes place in London 5-7 November. What exactly is the Balearic Islands' message?

Ep2 - after a short break the boys are back talking all things BALEARICS. Martin looks at the new law limiting cars in Ibiza and also a new initiative by the Balearic government guaranteeing rental returns for empty apartments. Richies' obsession with family tourism continues with a frank assessment of Magaluf and it's plans for the future including the incoming ABTA conference, also the emerging North American market and both get stuck into the tourist tax & its lack of transparency. Martin opens the debate about 'UNVRS' (due to open in Ibiza in June 2025) which is being billed as the world's first HYPERCLUB & no Richie Prior Podcast is complete without talking football & he waxes lyrical about Real Mallorca's start to the season. Plenty to listen to here!

Ep1 - With almost 70 years of living in the Balearics between them Martin & Richie launch a weekly podcast covering all things Balearics. This weeks episode focuses on why Ibiza & Mallorca appear to have had a quiet summer and Mallorca's continuing obsession with family tourism whereas Ibiza is almost entirely a kid-free zone these days. Also why has 'turismophobia' gripped the spanish psyche and not forgetting hero & villain of the week. Catch us every week on all the usual platforms.

Ep10: DANNY TALBOT. A 70's teenage pop star mixing with THE JAM & MADNESS, when his band split & his brother went on to find international fame with PAUL WELLER & the STYLE COUNCIL he somehow found himself running the iconic CLUB 18-30 youth holidays in an ever-changing IBIZA during the madness of the mid to late 80’s as a booze & live music culture was giving way to Balearic house & ecstasy pills.
Danny went on to become a big cheese in the holiday industry pioneering the very first clubbing holidays to the White isle with MINISTRY OF SOUND & then overseeing THOMAS COOK SPORT just as the English PREMIER LEAGUE exploded.
There’s plenty of nostalgia & lots of laughs in this podcast with a genuine Ibiza lover who, over 40 years, has become part of the Islands fabric.

Ep9: On the eve of the new football season I have a searingly honest chat with NOTTINGHAM FOREST FC first team coach STEVEN REID about his football career so far, his personal challenges & how, during one of his darker times, he found Ibiza and why it became his sanctuary.
Football, Ibiza, counselling, teenage success, injuries, imposter syndrome, Portinatx, too much too young, VIP culture, menu del dia, Souness/Hughes, sunset walks & the West End. This podcast covers a whole range of topics & combines my 2 great loves - the beautiful game & the beautiful island. It's been an incredible journey so far for Steven Reid.

Ep8 - I sit down over a cup of tea to chat with Island veteran and font of all Ibiza knowledge TRICIA TEMPLETON about her journey from Ayrshire in Scotland to the White Isle in the late 70's. Her 'Ladyship' recounts some great stories from almost 50 years including an Ibiza of a bygone age and bringing up a family before satellite TV, never mind social media (which she is now 'famous' for), even existed but brings it right up to date with her thoughts of the modern day reality of living on a small island which is constantly in the public eye. You can't beat experience!

26 year old BALI POPE came to my attention when she appeared in BBC3's controversial docu-series 'SECRETS OF THE PARTY ISLAND' with Zara McDermott & when I wrote a disparaging article about it & her portrayal she wasn't impressed and wasn't shy in telling me so.
In episode 7 of my podcast series we have a frank & forthright chat about that BBC3 series, Bali’s thoughts on how she came across and the fallout afterwards. She also explains how her path could have been very different, what it's like to be a millenial from a single parent family & discovering Ibiza as an 18 year old. Bali also talks honestly about her experiences on the island and how it has changed even during her short time here.

From his 90’s heyday co-owning & promoting legendary club night CLOCKWORK ORANGE in the UK & IBIZA - where anything and everything could & did happen - to a spurious court case to hitting rock bottom sitting in a darkened room with his imaginary demons closing in.
DANNY GOULD has been through one hell of a JOURNEY, I chat to him about the hedonistic & excessive old days, some of the scrapes he found himself in to his own personal addiction battle & subsequent redemption and why he & Andy Manston brought back CLOCKWORK ORANGE and how they have made it into the runaway success it is today by creating an incredible and friendly atmosphere for their loyal older crowd who have brought a new crowd with them.
As Danny prepares for CLOCKWORK’S annual Ibiza extravaganza, we have an open & honest chat as he tells me about his amazing IBIZA JOURNEY.

From a London building site to opening one of IBIZA TOWN'S most famous bars to co-owning the iconic ES VIVE HOTEL, it's been an incredible IBIZA JOURNEY for JASON BULL. In episode 5 we have a frank & open discussion about Jason's journey, his passion for the hospitality industry & how the island has changed over the last 30 years and how he has changed with it.
From the highs of being the consummate host living in blissful ignorance and putting on incredible after-parties for music industry A-listers to the low of prematurely selling (to LIONEL MESSI’s company) the hotel that made his name & took over a decade to build into an iconic Ibiza brand and then the challenge of trying to retain his hard-earned identity but now as a father in his 50's - this is a must-listen for Ibiza lovers and wannabe Island entrepreneurs.

Ep4 - I wanted a teenage perspective of growing up in Ibiza so who better to chat to than my 16 year old son DANIEL MAKEPEACE about what it’s like to be born in Ibiza, having identity issues as one of only a few Brits in his local Spanish school & how his opinion of tourists has been shaped by what he sees every day.
An interesting chat with someone on the cusp of adulthood who’s only ever known the island life. Essential listening for anyone thinking of bringing up children in Ibiza and some of the pros & cons it can come with. School, drugs, mates, 'botellon', the walk of shame - we cover lots of things. Growing up in 'paradise' has many sides.Message me here

In episode 3 I talk to International Music Summit founder DANNY WHITTLE about his journey from the streets of Stoke-on-Trent to sailing to the FALKLANDS WAR as a teenager on HMS Hermes to fight for his country to finally arriving in IBIZA at the relatively ‘old’ age of 32, climbing up the island's unforgiving clubbing ladder and being charged with the task of changing the face of PACHA IBIZA - one of the world's most famous clubs. This is a must listen!

Welcome to my NEW PODCAST SERIES entitled MY IBIZA JOURNEY where I will be chatting with some well known and some not so well known people about their journey to the White Isle and what makes Ibiza so special for them. In episode 1, I talk with KIRK FIELD about his journey to become a published author with his award winning book - RAVE NEW WORLD: CONFESSIONS OF A RAVING REPORTER - the manuscript was written in a low period during lockdown as a confessional for his children and we also chat about the important part that Ibiza has played in his life since he first came here in the 90's as a reporter for MIXMAG.
