We take a little time during our current road trip to discuss some road trips that we love or would love to do around the United States.
It is, after all, made for road trips!
We discuss road trips all over the country, our favorites, our dishonorable mentions, and of course the ones that break the rules!
These would be great options for summer trips, especially in some of the areas that have harsh winters, or to get away from the harsh winters a little earlier!
Interested in a particular road trip? They’re listed below, but beware of spoilers!
Because our listeners (YOU!) are so amazing, we won the Lights, Camera, Switzerland competition by a landslide.
Today, our friend Dave, also known as Napkins, interviews us about what we’ll be doing in Switzerland and everything else he can think of relating to the trip!
We wouldn’t be able to do this without you, and we can’t thank you enough.
So have a listen, and laugh, and stay tuned for information on when the show will be launching on national television!
A big part of the idea at EPoP is giving back to the community. And the way that we do that?
Pencils of Promise
We were fortunate enough with the Paradise Pack to raise enough funds so that in conjunction with Pencils of Promise we were able to fund the building of a school in Guatemala
We built a school!
And we couldn’t have done it without YOU! (We’really excited!)
Today, the founder of Pencils of Promise, Adam Braun, joins me for an overview of Pencils of Promise, how it came to be, and how travel has completely changed his life, time and time again.
Jason will be taking over the interview baton and interviewing Adam as well this week for a more in-depth look at the Pencils of Promise organization, so be sure to head over to Zero to Travel to check out the other half of this interview!
Animals don’t run towards things. They run away from something.
Stefan Loble feels an affinity for this idea. For years he’d been having ideas for businesses he could start, but he never followed through on any of them.
Until he got really sick of washing his pants.
Running away from laundry led him to his current full-time job as the founder of Bluffworks.
Bluffworks creates awesome travel/work pants that don’t wrinkle and can go days without care.
Seriously.
Stefan joins me today to talk about finally following through on his ideas and becoming an entrepreneur, why it’s the hardest thing he’s ever done (with stories for comparison), and how he managed to balance his new business with his 9-5 job as a software programmer.

We continue our discussion from yesterday with a deeper exploration into Phroogal. Jason’s website that aims to teach people about personal finance, in a fun way.
We continue on to how they find the answers to people’s questions on money, and the difference between spending consciously and pinching pennies, something I’ve only recently figured out!
This is part 2 of a 2 part interview. Click here to check out part 1, where Jason discusses how he left a job he loved to travel the world instead, and how it changed his life.
