Over the past decade, Hyatt has had one of the most beloved hotel loyalty programs in the points world—and a big reason for that has been its simple, predictable award chart that made it possible to get incredible value from Hyatt points.
That's (p... more

This is a great podcast full of information to help me use my credit cards as efficiently as possible. But the cadence of the host is a little too choppy lately. Lots of halting speech so that it sounds like reading off a script. I know that is a minor pet peeve but it does make the podcast hard to listen to for me. The interviews are more natural.
I used to hear all of Devon’s podcast episodes. Lately they’ve been a bit rambling, excessively long, filled with friends talking about themselves (within points context) where the podcast becomes way less helpful than it was at a point. The podcast has the potential to be as helpful as it was but Devon needs to be mindful about adding value vs simply talking for longer.
Love this podcast. Especially how mindful she is that EVERYONE deserves first class. Regardless of gender, color or social status. We belong there.
A « doctor » turned free rider, wow…
And now she fearmongers to sell her overpriced course
Greed is everywhere
I enjoyed this podcast a lot actually! Lots of interesting and unique perspectives on the points game. However, she started promoting her points class on it. Fine I understand, everyone has to make a living. Then I saw she’s charging $2000 for the class, 50-100% (there’s free ones as well with lots of good information) more than what comparable creators charge for theirs, for a class that only lasts 3 months mind you.
Just leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
