Another great episode, guys! Especially loved the 24 hour turnaround bit.

Better than the first, and the first one was pretty darn good. Like Justin, I also liked the 24 hour turnaround bit. Bruce! is a winner, and I also enjoyed the mountain climbing sequence. Finally, can you introduce me to Nikki?

I can't believe I was taking notes! Great episode; the air cruiser (googled it) The trans-Siberian railway (googled it) Swans in SF (on my list ) and Pinnacles (googled it to see where the heck it was). Thanks guys. Fun times.

Very cool! (And only about 9 minutes too long.)

Aaron Murphy-Crews is HOTT - Didn't even hear what he said, just stared at his gorgeousness the entire time :P

Cool episode. I'm ready for some San Fran! How bout Chicago for your next city. I know this great place to stay....

Hang on now, "waiting in line is a sign you're at a good place?" Not in NY. It means what may have once been good expanded faster than it could handle and is now operating at a volume that it shouldn't. Quel dommage -- only B&T'ers and tourists wait in line.
