  • We explored San Antonio's haunted places and the urban legends behind them: Your Texas ghost-hunting guide
    Oct 23 2026
    Ghost hunters, gather round! Did you know San Antonio, Texas, is considered one of the most haunted cities in the USA and frequently appears on lists of America's most paranormally charged places? Its chilling reputation is woven into more than 300 years of dramatic history, from bloody Spanish colonial clashes and the legendary 1836 Battle of the Alamo to devastating epidemics and wild frontier violence. With so many original 18th- and 19th-century limestone buildings still standing, locals say that San Antonio was built atop many layers of history and forgotten souls. In this on-location audio adventure, presenter Portia Jones and producer Luke Jones join the Sisters Grimm Ghost Tours to explore San Antonio's most notorious haunted sites, including the Menger Hotel, Texas's most haunted hotel, uncover chilling urban legends, and unravel the eerie tale of the Three Emmas. Along the way, we meet local experts, unearth the secrets behind San Antonio's most beloved haunted locations, and discover why this Texas city belongs on every adventurous traveller's must-visit list. If San Antonio is on your travel radar and you crave an audio guide to the Alamo City, tune in for insider tips and spine-tingling experiences to add to your San Antonio Halloween bucket list.

  • Why San Antonio Texas is a must-visit for history and culture lovers: A travel guide
    Oct 9 2026
    San Antonio, Texas, is full of history and culture. It features one of the country's most important historic corridors, centred around the state's first and only UNESCO World Heritage Site. The city is known for its 18th-century Spanish colonial buildings and the rich stories that shaped the American Southwest, the frontier, and the Texas Revolution. San Antonio's culture blends Texan and Mexican traditions, which is why it's often called the "Tejano heart of Texas." With over 300 years of influence from Spanish, Mexican, Indigenous, and German communities, the city feels more like its own unique region than a typical American city. In this on-location episode, presenter Portia Jones and producer Luke Jones visit famous places like the Alamo, Texas's most popular historic site. They step back in time at Missions National Historical Park, get a behind-the-scenes look at the Witte Museum, and enjoy a sunset cocktail at a historic spot with great views of the city. Along the way, we meet local experts, learn the stories behind San Antonio's favourite historic sites, and find out why this Texas city should be on every curious traveller's list. If you're planning a trip to San Antonio and want an audio travel guide to Alamo City, tune in for what to do, where to go and the experiences worth adding to your San Antonio bucket list.

  • We booked a £99 Wowcher Mystery Holiday with no clue where we were going, was it worth it?
    Sep 25 2026
    What happens when you let fate decide where you're going on holiday? We test the viral Wowcher £99 mystery holiday to see if it's worth it and what you need to know. On this fun episode, Producer Luke has been persuaded by his cavalier wife and Travel Goals presenter Portia to take a gamble on a £99 Wowcher Mystery Holiday, a popular holiday deal where you pay a fixed price for a package that includes flights and accommodation, but you don't get to choose the destination. The budget deal instead offers return flights and two nights in a hotel abroad at a low price. It could be Dubai, New York, the Maldives, Las Vegas, or Mexico, or European destinations such as Paris, Monaco, Sicily, and Lake Como; you won't know until you pay for the deal and let the travel gods decide. Your destination is allocated via a randomised draw and is subject to availability, so you're effectively gambling your annual leave on the chance of a long-haul trip, or a super-budget stay somewhere in Europe. In this episode, recorded on location and in the studio, we cover exactly how the deal works, how you find out the mystery destination, the flights, the accommodation, the unexpected costs, and what it is like trying to enjoy a budget holiday when so much of the trip has already been decided for you. If you have ever looked at a Wowcher Mystery Holiday, a £99 mystery holiday or one of the many cheap holiday deals promising a surprise destination, this is what happened when we decided to find out whether the gamble was actually worth taking. Get your Wowcher Mystery holiday here and let us know if it was worth it! *********** Hi, I'm your podcast host, Portia Jones [nickname Pip Jones].
