Adam Schluter is a self-proclaimed "introvert who was scared of the world." So what did he? Booked a plane ticket to the cheapest place he could find (hint: it wasn't cheap once he landed!) and started saying hello to strangers.
Fast forward 9 years, and he's still doing it - while also figuring out how he can take the joy he feels while traveling and bring it back to his home in Idaho, which lead to him hosting Monday Night Dinners for 500(ish) people. Yes, 500 people. In a backyard. Of a small house.
Hear all about it and more in this episode...
And then, go say hi to a stranger.
Over the past 30 days, I've taken on a challenge - to try 9 new habits. Everything from doing a carnivore diet to 5 minutes of a daily somatic shake to "phone in foyer". What did I learn? Did I fail at some of them? (hint: yes). Are some life-changing?

If you liked (or didn't like) this more personal, behind the scenes style show, let me know. I'm looking for your honest feedback as I experiment with different styles of shows so that I can create what you want to hear!
For the first time in 12 years and over 600 episodes, I recorded a full length solo show - and of course, it's about my favorite topic in the world, ICE CREAM!
From grandmas on remote Canadian islands to father-son duos in obscure South American countries, these twenty places (plus a few honorable mentions) will have you salivating - and ready to hop on the next plane.
I've been to over 300 ice cream shops (honestly, that number is probably much higher) and these are truly the 20 best in the world.
And don't forget - I'm actively looking for new places to try (tough job, but someone has to do it). So please reach out on IG @extrapackofpeanuts and let me know your favorite ice cream places - it might just make it on our next list!
2024 was a banger - tons of amazing experiences. Now, we've narrowed the list down to 20 (well...with a few honorable mentions). Everything from swimming at beaches with castles to walking (not swimming) with a whale is included in this year's best experiences.
Scouring the globe for the best desserts can be a thankless task...haha, who am I kidding? It's awesome. And 2024 was a banger of a year for desserts in the Sherry household!
From Mexico City bakeries to small North Carolina markets, this list has it all - including two (yes, TWO) British "breakfast" items.
Grab a bib - because you're about to drool!
(and then let us know on instagram @extrapackofpeanuts what you're favorite dessert of 2024 was).
From cocktail bars behind deli shops in Barcelona to a Polish brewed beer using Philadelphia yeast drank in the northwest corner of Spain (yes, it's as confusing as it is delicious), we sampled some of the best coffees, cocktails, and beers we've ever had in our lives during 2024...
... and this episode reveals them all!
