TFB #17 - Squirrels, A New Cash Back Approach, and 3 All-inclusive Tips
10/26/18 • 37 min
In this episode, I give my HT of the Week to an inspiring animal spirit of the travel world. I also discuss my latest thought experiment on earning 2% cashback straight into a brokerage account. Finally, I round out the episode by giving three tips for choosing an all-inclusive resort.
*Super important editor's note: In this episode, and really quite frequently, I state that using bank points in the Chase portal with CSP or CSR can effectively give you a 25-50% discount. The math doesn't really work out like that. Really, you're redeeming the points at a 25-50% higher rate, but not getting that as a pure discount. I say this a lot. It's a problem. My influencer brain can only handle so much math.

TFB #18 - Louisville
Some points from the show:
- Tony loves my pick of the Hyatt Regency with its great location downtown, in stumbling distance to many great bars
- Jockey Silks Bourbon Bar in the Galt House Hotel is a must visit
- The Urban Bourbon Trail is a fun way to explore different venues and bars
Tony's tips for distilleries:
If you're a bourbon fan, seek out the brands you already enjoy as you'll appreciate them that much more. Be prepared for a journey because it can take 45 minutes to an hour to get to one from another. Both Maker's Mark and Woodford Reserve tours are well worth the drive.
To expand your spirit education, be sure to check out both the Vice Lounge Online and the Bourbon and Branch podcasts. If you have any Lousivlle tips, please share! Thanks for listening. Safe travels. Be good to each other.
