Man has always traveled. From the savannahs of Africa to the wilds of Sheboygan, we have throw a freshly-cured skin into our rucksack and set off after adventure. It’s a proud tradition, but one that is increasingly less about expanding opportunity and more about getting face time with the new CTO. (In any case, pack a spear.)

Travel may not always be life-changing and romantic, but that’s no excuse to not do it right.

This week on Dethroner the theme is “Travel.” We’ll discuss the best ways to get good seats on airlines, get you up to date on the best ways to buy tickets, teach you how to pack to be prepared without lugging around garbage, and help you awaken your inner traveler—all from the comfort of your own computer.

If you have a tip or a story idea for Dethroner, please feel free to send a tip or drop us a line on AIM, or just add it in directly to this week’s schedule on the wiki. In addition to theme-related links, we also welcome regular submissions to Ask Dethroner and Dapper or Crapper?. Upcoming themes are available for your perusal and suggestion on our Planning Commission Wiki.
