On this week's Miles to Go podcast, powered by our friends at Thrifty Traveler, Ed is just back from a whirlwind 18-hour stop in Marrakesh and Richard is finally back in the co-host chair. Ed breaks down what it's really like to stay in a riad inside the Medina, how chaotic (or not) the souks feel, and whether Morocco deserves a spot on your must-visit list.

Then the guys pivot into a big batch of Bilt news: the now-official Rakuten partnership and what it could mean to earn points on your mortgage starting next year.

Along the way, they get into ugly Vegas convention fares, surviving the world's shortest red-eyes, and a few killer Thrifty Traveler Premium deals.
