Extra Pack of Peanuts Travel Podcast

Heather breaks down her favorite coffees of the year, we debate how much a bag of beans should REALLY cost, talk about what made an awful cocktail not actually awful and give you our favorite adult beverages of 2022.

The one you've all been waiting for - our best meals of 2022!  From a surprise at the supermarket to a square in Porto, we highlight our greatest eating experiences of the year - and give out lots of "yums" (listen to the podcast to find out what that means).

Episode 2 of our 6 part Year in Review answers all the burning question, like "what was the craziest thing we did this year?", "what was our worst accommodation" (hint: it had a ceiling falling down), "are waterparks as fun as an adults as they were as a kid?", and "what were our biggest mishaps" (there were plenty to pick from).     Stories abound, so hit play and have a listen!

For the 7th straight year, we are back with our 6 part Year in Review. And in Episode 1 - Travel Stats, Trav gets to nerd out on all the numbers.  How many places did we sleep last year?  Where were they?  Did one of us spend multiple nights on an airplane?  How many miles did we fly?  And what new places did we have the good fortune of visiting?  All these answers, and more, jam packed in this episode.

For the 9th (!!!) year in a row we are back with the 16 unexpected things we are thankful for in 2022 - and a teaser on what's coming up with the EPOP podcast.  Happy Thanksgiving!

Rob Abasolo is called the "King of Short Term Rentals" and he has used AirBnB to quit his job, make waaaay more money than before, and do the stuff he loves (like building tiny houses, renovating motels, and giving people epic experiences).  But it wasn't always that way - in fact, his very first short term rental project that was supposed to take 3 months took 13!   It's no secret that I am a massive fan of real estate and short term rentals specifically, and so not only do Rob and I geek out on short term rentals on the podcast, but... ...we are also running a totally free 2 day workshop called "The 3 Biggest Myths About Short Term Rentals" on Oct 25th and 26th. Click here to join the workshop - it's totally free! So even if you don't know anything about short term rentals or if it's right for you, here's your chance to learn from two experts who learned the hard way!

What happens when someone in Canada, Thailand, and New York sit down with Trav to discuss lifestyle freedom?  Well...it gets deep...and fun...and we all learn what it's like to have 5 daughters (true story!) This is part of our Location Indie podcast, hence the different opening.  If you like it, check out Location Indie in your podcast feed!

I sit down with 5 amazing contributors to the Paradise Pack 2022 to discuss their journey to lifestyle freedom...and also to talk about eating chocolate poured over your hands (true story!) This is part of our Location Indie podcast as well, hence the different opening.  If you like it, go check out Location Indie in your podcast feed!

We answer your questions about lifestyle freedom - include if we miss anything about our 9-5. Plus, a very special guest makes a surprise appearance!

What does the future look like for us...and society as a whole?  Well, that's a big question, and if I knew the answer, I'd be buying lottery tickets.  But we do tackle what we think the near future will hold for people seeking lifestyle freedom (more autonomy, less college?) and what the next 3-5 years look like for us as our kids get older and we enter our 40's.
