Glen is THE Sauna guru of our generation. His knowledge and passion for Sauna Culture is evident from the first listen. On top of that, his interviews and guests are great! I’ve been listening to the podcast for years and still enjoy it each episode immensely! Thanks Glen
There is talking about everything, expect sauna.
It really did. From growing up visiting the YMCA sauna, to a railway town wood fired sauna, the odd home made sweat lodge… I thought I knew sauna. Until I found this show and Glenn’s book.i’ve now got a great sauna at home with good heat, steam and ventilation. The show has introduced me to the broader sauna culture and techniques. I’ve learned something important from each episode.4 out of 5 stars, because even as Glen admits, he has some challenges with recording trchnology.
Keep it going Gl... more
Who knew there was so much to learn about authentic sauna?!🧖🏼♀️ I’ve just ordered a sauna from Glen’s neighbor at Urban Wing and have enjoyed Glen’s travels, passion for sauna, sincerity & the interesting people he interviews.
It makes me wonder how he can record inside a heatedauna every time I hear them splash more steam/löyly!💦🌫️
