Life’s A Beach sees Alan giving Judith Chalmers and Michael Palin a run for their money as he invites a famous guest each week to discuss their favourite places in the world. Bursting with anecdotes, laidback chat and laugh out loud travel tales - if this podcast was a suitcase you’d have to sit on it.

“My Life’s A Beach podcast is the escapism we ALL need right now. I sat down and chatted with some of my famous friends about everything travel. From caravanning in Rhyl to private jetting to the Maldives, my guests spill the beans on their holiday horrors and dream destinations. Let’s face it: we might not have the sun on our faces, but after a listen to this you’ll definitely have a smile” – ALAN CARR

Selma with 2 cats ,

Brilliant Podcast!

I love this podcast, it makes me laugh and I look forward to hearing it every week. As normal I was late to the party but that meant I got to binge listen and I got my sister in law listening too. Thank you Alan for always being amazing!

Love Alan!

I absolutely love Alan. His sense of humour is right up my street. I’ve binge listened this whole series.
Mike skinner is an awful guest to have on a podcast. Alan did well to make it funny, although awkward.

So funny!

I absolutely love this podcast and is warm, funny and get to learn about the guests. I listen every time a new one drops and love it. My only gripe, the start bit where Alan pretends to be on the speaker and announces the name repeatedly many many many times. It makes me want to take my ears off and chuck them into the river
