We get another update on Richard's calf, and it's not a good one. Richard and Ed are answering a listener question about how tough it is to find award space to Tokyo right now.
 
Ed asks Richard whether he would prefer to have American Airlines Executive Platinum status or United 1K status if he could have one lifetime status. It's also our poll question of the week sponsored by Points Path.
 
Lastly, they're recapping Ed's first Blade flight, complete with some video highlights!
