300th Episode Special! – 30 Rapid Fire Questions

To celebrate 4.5 years and 300 episodes (!!!), Trav and Heather decide to have a little fun and grill one another by putting each other on the hot seat and answering 15 travel questions apiece.

The person on the hot seat has no idea what questions will be asked and has to give the first answer that comes into their head for questions ranging from “what’s your favorite accommodation ever” to “when were you the most frustrated with me while traveling” and everything in between.

How Much $ Did Frequent Flyer Miles Save Us in 2017?

Sometimes, we take frequent flyer miles for granted because we’ve been using them for so long.

So last night I sat down, opened up a spreadsheet, and figured out EXACTLY how much money frequent flyer miles saved us in 2017.

To find out what that number is, plus learn why Heather thinks that’s not the “real” number and whether or not she’d pay out of pocket for a business class ticket, check out today’s podcast!

If you want to start saving thousands (maybe even tens of thousands) of dollars a year by travel hacking, check out our brand new Frequent Flyer Bootcamp, the #1 travel hacking course in the world!

Thanksgiving Thanks 2017

Each year, we’re thankful for a lot of things.

Of course, many of these are “the basics”.  Family, friends, food.  And while we don’t want to overlook those things, they don’t exactly make for a thrilling podcast episode.

So instead, Heather and I look back at the past year and reveal the 11 most unexpected things to happen to us that we are thankful for in 2017.

Top 15 (or so) Questions About Frequent Flyer Miles


Inspired by our recent Travel Hacking Masterclass we wanted to go through some of the most common questions about Frequent Flyer miles that we get here at Extra Pack of Peanuts.

We’ve even brought on fan favorite, Napkins, on to help!

EPoP started as a site dedicated to Frequent Flyer Miles and Travel Hacking though we’ve expanded into so much more than that. This month we want to go back to our roots a bit and focus more on the travel hacking!

We’re republishing some of our old content updated, and we’ll be releasing a new version of our Frequent Flyer Bootcamp later this month!

You’re gonna love it and the journey starts here!

Tell us if you learned something new today! Also do you want Napkins on more podcasts? Hashtag #LoveNapkins at @ExtraPackofPeanuts and let us know!!
