    Phenomenal Sailing Podcast
    Absolutely love this show — part of my weekly routine to listen and I always look forward to every episode! Paul is an amazing host — his interview style allows his guests to settle right on in and share such epic stories! The OSC pod is not only interesting as well as entertaining, it’s incredibly educational; I always come away from each episode feeling like I’ve learned something new -- which, especially as a sailor myself, I always tremendously appreciate! 5/5 stars on this pod from me; I highly recommend it! ~ Chelle, SV Charm, and SV Charisma of passagesfromtheheart
  • BrimstonesAsylum
    A truly genuine show
    Paul is an amazing host. He not only runs a great interview with free flowing insightful questions, but he is also vulnerable in sharing his own story. It’s refreshing to hear a genuine conversation between two individuals versus a scripted show that lacks authenticity. Great job Paul!
  • Packgoat

    Paul Trammell knows how to interview people: excellent questions. He has a huge variety of people on. My favorite podcast.
  • SV John B

  • RoughWindOK
    Superb Podcast❤️⛵️🌊

    One Of My Favorite Podcasters
    I found this Podcast just a few days ago. Today I have been binge listening to all the GGR podcasts. Paul ask very good questions and has such a great attitude on everything that it makes it very enjoyable to listen. Please keep them coming.

    Great pod
  • Axis Help Me
    Great Sailing Podcast - Audio Help Below!
    I love your podcasts! Great guests and incites, but the audio quality needs help! If nothing else, boost the output a little bit! The audio levels are consistently too low. You work so hard on these, let them be heard. Levels should be at -18db for your podcast. If you don’t have software to deal with it (you probably do), send it to me and I will do it for you!! Quoted from Transom.Org: “Radio and podcasts need two different loudness targets: -24 LUFS for radio and approximately -18 LUFS for podcasts. It’s best to do all of your production at the lower “radio” level, even if your final product is to be at the higher “podcast” level.”

    Compelling
    Paul has great subject matter and great guests. They are informative and educational for this recreational sailor . I especially enjoy hearing about his sailing adventures. I look forward to each episode.

    Smart but unassuming guy. Lots of sailing and sailing associated info. Like his style
  • spacebag
    Great dude, great pod
    Def worth a listen. There’s a lot here even for non sailors as well. Great stuff.
  • DRGLMV
    Great podcast
    I’ve been listening for a while and this podcast just gets better and better. Love the books too
  • Artdujour.org
    Great Interviews
    As a sailor hanging on the hook In The leewards I enjoy the range of guests and look forward to more salty tales. Well done.
  • BassRhetoric
    Top-notch podcast for sailors interested in the cruising life.
    Been binging this podcast for a couple of weeks now. Can’t say enough good things about it. He’s a single-handed cruiser interviewing other sailors and racers around the world as well as his neighborhood cruising ground. I love that he has a standard set of questions he asks just about everyone so you get all kinds of perspectives on things like foul weather gear, storm tactics, provisioning, navigation equipment and much more. Great work, Paul. Keep it up.
  • mikael nicklas
    Great podcast!

  • BOD Griff
    Interesting and inspiring
    Paul does a great job interviewing his guests. He doesn't hurry and let's the person actually speak. Well done with lots of good info.
  • MichaelM33
    On happy Sponsor
    I came across Paul’s podcast searching for sailing adventurers. I was so impressed with not only his ongoing quest for adventure, but his inquisitive style and thought provoking way of drawing the best stories out of each guest. I was learning so much about sailing, boats and inspiring locales, that I decided to make our brand; Royal Robbins Outdoor Clothing, his official clothing sponsor. He has responded with incredible feedback, photos and advertising through his channels. Thanks Paul! Michael - CEO - Royal Robbins
  • Sarahmreynolds
    Fantastic podcast!
    I stumbled on this podcast looking for more sailing podcast. I highly recommend it! I am deathly scared of sharks and the interview about sharks was very educational on how it the freak out! Great job, thank you and looking forward to more episodes.
  • BillyBobV in Nor-Cal
    Enjoying this podcast
    I’ve been enjoying these podcasts and they’ve matched well with his books.
  • Chris.Jed
    Thorough, Informative, and Enjoyable
    Great pod, Paul’s relaxed style lets his guests dig into the questions and there’s a lot of thoughtful information within.
  • St.Caffeine
    A great primer for the aspiring cruiser.
    I love this podcast. From seasoned veterans to those who have thoughtfully but recently set sail, Paul has gathered a cadre of interviews that provide both breadth and depth for aspiring blue water sailors like me. Paired with Paul’s books these episodes inspire, inform and entertain the sailing curious and the experienced sailor alike. I hope he continues to produce this podcast for years to come. It certainly brings a fresh voice and a new perspective to the sailing podcast niche.
