    Travel Tuesday: MGM Grand King Room Review Revisited

    It’s been a while since I’ve added to my Las Vegas Content Bonanza™. Well, that’s also because it had been some time since I last had a chance to visit Sin City. But, back in January for CES, that changed. This time around, I spent a week at the MGM Grand — which happens to…

    Travel Tuesday: The Club CLE Lounge Review

    Last fall, my wife and I kicked off a multi-city excursion by flying out of Cleveland Hopkins International Airport. As we arrived for our short flight to Detroit (before an extremely long flight to Hong Kong), I was surprised to find that a lounge we had access to was available at the airport: The Club…

    Travel Tuesday: Caption by Hyatt Memphis Hotel Review

    A few weeks ago, I had the chance to visit Memphis, Tennessee. Despite driving through the city a few times, this was my first proper visit (albeit one that was quite short). To mark the occasion, I decided to look for something that was convenient for me but that also seemed interesting to review. What…

    2025 Solis Lite WiFi Hotspot Review

    As someone who regularly “workations” and relies on a solid Internet connection to be productive while traveling, it’s kind of crazy that I went without a WiFi hotspot for so long. That’s mostly because I had never come across a particular device that jumped out at me.  Well, that was until my first CES when…

    Travel Tuesday: Delta is Changing Its Boarding Procedures… Kind Of

    As a loyal-ish Delta customer, I like to think that I have a pretty good handle on what to expect when flying the airline. This includes knowing the order of their boarding groups — and even what I’d need to do in order to move up the food chain. Well, soon, that’s all changing… at…

    Travel Tuesday: Universal’s Aventura Hotel Review

    For as many theme parks as I’ve been to in my life, it’s not very often that I actually get to stay on property at these resorts. So, while visiting Orlando back in October 2023, I decided to change that and book a stay at Universal’s Aventura Hotel — located at Universal Orlando Resort. This modern…

    Travel Tuesday: Moderne Gentleman Travel Duffle Bag Review

    As someone who not only travels with some frequency but also enjoys reviewing products, I’m always on the lookout for interesting travel accessories and the like.

    Travel Tuesday: Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel Review

    Something funny about me is that, despite being a huge Disney fan who knows the parks like the back of my hand, I can count the number of times I’ve stayed on Walt Disney World property on just a few fingers. But, while continuing our Florida trip that saw us attending a friend’s wedding, we…

    Travel Tuesday: Hilton Grand Vacations Tuscany Village Orlando Review

    When we returned from our trip to Hong Kong, we didn’t go back home. Instead, we headed straight to Florida for a friend’s wedding. But, with a week to spend in Orlando, we decided to try a few different places during our time there. We also happened to wait until just a few days before…

    Travel Tuesday: How I Earned $50 with MGM’s Resort Hopping Offer for Las Vegas

    Last week, I attended my fourth CES in Las Vegas. Ahead of the show’s actual start, I had a chance to check out some of what was new on the Strip — or at least new to me, since I haven’t been there in 18+ months. Incidentally, something new to me happened to fall into…

    Travel Tuesday: “Abroad in Japan” Audiobook Review

    More than a decade ago, Chris Broad moved to Japan and started his cleverly named YouTube channel Abroad in Japan. Now, Broad has penned a new book of the same name that chronicles his time in the Land of the Rising Sun. As a fan of Broad’s videos, I was excited to discover that he’d…

    Travel Tuesday: Matina Lounge ICN Review

    In the time that I’ve had my American Express Platinum Card, I had only ever visited one lounge via the Priority Pass that the card comes with — and even that wasn’t a real lounge (it was a Minute Suites where my pass got me one hour for free and a discount on the second).…

"Smart Brevity" Book Review — Can it Help Improve Your Writing?
I'm not 100% sure when it was that I first heard about the site Axios.

Solis is Launching Yet Another New Global WiFi Hotspot Model
Back in 2019, I purchased my first Solis (then known as Skyroam Solis) international hotspot device. Since then, though, the company has rolled out a number of new models — and that pace has really hastened over the past couple of years. That continued this month as preorders for their new Solis Tag device opened....

Travel Tuesday: Kimpton Rowan Palm Springs Hotel Review

What I found...
Our Firsthand Experience with Verizon Shine (So Far)
Back in June, Verizon launched a new program with the punny moniker "Verizon Shine."

And while the telecom came out of the gate...

This means that, rather than using bad-sounding and occasionally painful...
