*On the Sunday, October 31st, 2021 edition of The Travel Guys…*

- In the **Travel News**, a lawsuit reveals just how much Marriott is making on "resort/destination" fees. Hint: It's in the tens of millions annually. American Airlines is the latest melt down, canceling over a thousand flights this weekend alone; and passport wait times are starting to get shorter.
- Theater in Sacramento has been on hiatus due to COVID issues, but now it's back. **Hamilton** had a successful run, and **An Officer and A Gentleman** premiers next week. **Richard Lewis** of **Broadway Sacramento** joins us to talk about his new digs, how **Hamilton** went and what's on tap.
- As our city becomes more noticed in the culinary world, lots of great new things are happening around Sacramento, including our city making **Wallet Hub's** list of Foodie Cities **at number SIX**. How did that happen? It's all very scientific.
