This was a fun show! I also use a very expensive hair dryer, it's my number one concern when I'm sorting out my packing needs for a trip abroad. Why can't hotels just offer good powerful hair tools, even for an upcharge?
Also, a quick luggage suggestion -- check out Away

They're a brand new company and their whole business model is offering high-quality, durable luggage at more reasonable prices (they were founded by former Warby Parker folks, so they definitely have a "disruptor" mindset). The line isn't huge but they have a couple of different models to pick from and they all seem really well-thought out and smartly designed (their carry-on models have a built in battery so you can charge your devices on the go -- genius!). After borrowing one from a friend (who's a road warrior type and travels constantly) I was really impressed -- I'm planning on ordering one before a big trip this summer.
