Gunnar and Kyle pull out their binoculars to be your safari guides in this week’s episode. After going on their own safaris with the help of points and miles, they talk through their trips, what they loved (spoiler alert: pretty much everything), what they learned, and what they’d do differently next time. Plus, the guys gush about a new feature Google Flights is testing, wonder aloud about when the Chase Sapphire's big bonus will end, and get (rightfully) called out by a listener for a bad take on a previous episode.Watch us on YouTube!00:00 - Gunnar finally tells the “Gunnar Olson Olson Olson” story03:50 - Why we’re so psyched about Google Flights’ fancy new feature09:35 - How long will the Chase Sapphire Preferred 100K Bonus Offer last?12:55 - Gunnar recaps his trip to Zanzibar and the Masai Mara safari in Kenya34:00 - A word from our sponsor (us … and our free Extra Mile Newsletter for points and miles aficionados) 35:00 - Kyle puts on his safari hat and talks about his own trip to the South African bush25:15 - More about elephants!55:02 - A listener calls Gunnar & Kyle out of touch about their Hyatt free night certificates take58:10 - Kyle puts Gunnar on the spot…and Gunnar eats some delicious crow about HiltonProduced by Gunnar Olson & Jackson NewmanEdited by David StruttShow music: “All That” by Benjamin Tissot Support the show by leaving us a rating and a review wherever you get your podcasts!
