GadlingTV's Travel Talk 008: Chilean drinking game, inside Loopt for the iPad, & 'Bring Your Own Big Wheels'!
GadlingTV's Travel Talk, episode 8 – Click above to watch video after the jump
Bring your own big wheels! Join in this week for a San Francisco flashmob tradition that involves steep wet streets, plastic tricycles, and a need for speed.
We'll look into the origins of legal drinking ages on airplanes, temporary marriage in Shi'ite Islam, protests against the protests in Thailand, top-secret Russian ships turned airplanes, and why most of U.S foreign aid might not be going where you would expect.
If you're looking to get social in South America, tune in to see Vanessa teach us how to play a Chilean drinking game and then relax with some spiced Chai in Tea Time. We'll also take an exclusive look at Loopt's brand new iPad application with the company's co-founder, Alok Deshpande.

| Yes - I think development should go hand in hand with diplomacy & defense. | |
|---|---|
| Yes - the intentions are good but it doesn't always end up where it should. | |
| No - more money should go to nations that genuinely need development. | |
| Shouldn't we be using that money on our own people? |

"I obviously don't do a good job of handling my drinks"
That doesn't sound like you at all, Stephen.

Just FYI Mut'ah is a practiced only by Shia Muslims (who comprise less than 20% of Muslims worldwide). Saudi Arabia and the UAE are overwhelming Sunni Muslim Nations.
