Jet Lag, Greek Food & Group Travel with Matthew Schueller
This week’s Friday Checkout is packed with laughs, travel recaps, and real talk. Bryan and Tyler reunite (with working Wi-Fi!) to reflect on their recent Greece trip—from late-night pizza missions and legendary taxi drivers to overeating on cruise ships and Athens surprises.
They also dive into the latest Check-In with Bryan episode featuring Matthew Schueller, where they explore the rise of community-driven group travel and how he transitioned from nursing to leading curated trips across the globe. The duo reflects on what it takes to turn followers into travel companions—and why online trolls probably won’t book the flight.

•The return of George the waiter and Tomas the iconic taxi driver
•Conference culture and how to make networking events worth it
•A look ahead at next week’s guest: Brian Ames of Paraffin
