Get fresh NerdWallet data on what your points and miles are really worth in 2025 — and why the answer might change how you book travel. Should you take a $650 flight voucher or 32,500 miles? How much are your points and miles actually worth? Hosts Sally French and Meghan Coyle break down the latest NerdWallet valuations to help you make smarter redemption choices. But first, they cover the week’s biggest travel headlines, including Southwest Airlines’ new partnership with EVA Air, Frontier’s companion certificate promotion and status match, and JetBlue opening up award bookings with Condor Airlines. Then, travel Nerd Craig Joseph joins Meghan to discuss NerdWallet’s latest airline, hotel, and credit card point valuations, with tips and tricks on comparing loyalty programs, maximizing transfer partners, and deciding when cash is more valuable than points. They also discuss the impact of devaluations, how close-in bookings can save you points, and why premium cabins can sometimes offer outsized redemption value. Plus: Craig’s hot take on airport lounges. Card benefits, terms and fees can change.

Everyone shave your head and join the space navy bc someone decided to leave the podcast up to Gerg and Ceej <- that's a pretty good detective duo name... Ok, so what's your personality alignment? Are you familiar with the Good vs Evil and Lawful vs Chaotic scale? Well, we learned that the best example of true neutral is and passed judgement on everyone on the show. Thanks for hanging out! nerdtalkplus.com to tell us yours or if you're listening on Spotify, tell us in the episode comments!…

Happy Halloween, nerd! There is a zero percent chance this episode isn't littered with editing errors bc our editor has been too busy to pay attention this week. As always, thank you for supporting us on this very dumb thing we do! nerdtalkplus.com to join in.

Branden is back so that means we're playing America's favorite guessing game: Guinness Time. We're combining two giant conventions into one deadly idea. And Gerg is letting the silverware go to his head. Thanks for hanging out with us! Please leave comments wherever you listen or find us at nerdtalkplus.com…

While we strive/struggle to bring you something of some brain value every week, this week we also bring you something HUGE from the depths at the bottom of the brain barrel. If you only have a couple minutes to listen this week, skip ahead to just after the second commercial around 50 minutes in and listen to the most ridiculous butt trumpeting. Thank you, that is all. nerdtalkplus.com for more.…

Apologies but we let Gerg go out of town and everything fell apart in his absence. We can't even find, Branden. So look, a couple months after having a visit with Dr Snip and you get to play a fun game involving a cup labeled "POISON." We're pretty sure Gerg won though. Enjoy some actual Nerd Talk for once, but still an inappropriate amount of "other stuff"... Thanks for supporting us and sending us silly/nasty/other messages via nerdtalkplus.com. We really truly love doing this if you couldn't tell and you're a part of that!…

On a very mature episode of jk welcome to yet another incredibly juvenile episode where we do at least cover three actual Nerd Talk stories. Someone clean off the white board, we've gone zero days without "an incident." And we play another round of "Did Gerg Remember to Beep it?" Which is a very fun game where Gerg often loses. Good luck! Thanks for playing along with us at nerdtalkplus.com!…

We covered even more ground (less) than usual this week with a trip to blimp hell, a new Australian musical instrument, and a new form of math! Ceej joins from the balcony of a fancy Miami hotel room but sadly didn't make the electrifying content we were all hoping for. Next time, Ceej! Thanks for all the support, you make the show even more fun! nerdtalkplus.com to contribute!…

It's been a weird week but we're ready to make it weirder with our lies about science! Ol' Gerg Ryan acts like a creep, Ceej is sad, send him pics and memes (nerdtalkplus.com), and Branden is missing again ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ At least Gravy delivers the Nerd Gummy Clusters! Thank you as always for giggling with us - we love you!…

We cover a lot of (sticky) ground in this episode - our first with Branden back at the beginning in what feels like forever. Gerg is on the road and exploring his home city, Albugergue in new ways (congrats on #20), we've got book recs, blimps, and a very important business idea! Hop in the Gravitron (also please donate so we can buy a gravitron) we're gonna barf! As always, find us at nerdtalkplus.com…

Apologies in advance... Welcome back to our founding member and babiest bird, Branden! Gerg had a scientific advancement and Ceej wants a reenactment video. Enjoy the return, Gregr didn't, the return of Guinness Time! Thanks for being a friend of the pod - feel free to chime in at nerdtalkplus.com!

"Sideshow Bob Ross" was the original name, but then Ceej had a killer line about why we love doing this show. Point of order - this was supposed to be episode 432.5 and then 432.69 (for immature reasons) but the program we use to upload won't let us give episodes non-integer numbers - big eye roll emoji right here. Thanks for participating at nerdtalkplus.com. We love you!…

Wild new episode where we explore the duality of mouth, invent karate water, find out about Ceej's new at-home part-time career, and then invent a tasty birth control drug for me! Welcome to Ceej's Karate Hole <- that would be a pretty great name for a podcast on the MLC network. Thanks for your support at nerdtalkplus.com - we're having a blast and its more fun with you!…

The return of host favorite, Make it Worse, makes this episode better! My notes just say "Fornicario" so that's probably not safe for work despite me not being able to remember what that was all about. And we found a new convention to attend that never occurred to us but is definitely train adjacent. Good luck, everyone!

Be careful what photos you post bc some weirdo on his couch could def be triangulating barbecue from space. What's your flavor of candy that makes you an instant "yes" and what makes you say "no"? We invent yet another new activity for Branden's neighborhood to make his wife feel like we've got this whole parenting thing sorted while she's gone. Also, who left a podcast in charge of children?! This sounds like a job for the Dead Inside Dads!…

This week we have good news for Branden and the hams! Perhaps we'll finally find an heir to the airship with a double episode of This Week in Blimp. Just wait until you hear the new theme song and then learn who created it. Pretty fun episode made better with overuse of the word "karate." Thanks for goofing off with us in the comments or on our socials at nerdtalkplus.com <- our link tree…
