- Not enough specific tips and strategies
Unfortunately I don’t think this podcast hits the mark yet. It lacks specificity (for example, not asking guests to explain how they accumulated their points, how many points they used for particular flights) and jumps around a lot. I think it would be much more useful to have a strategic, step by step podcast that covers one topic per episode in detail.

Apple Podcasts5samd897Australia6 years ago - Painful to listen to and lacking in "hacks"
The premise of this podcast is promising, but sadly it fails to deliver much content that is engaging or helpful when it comes to "point hacks". Most irritating is the exchange between the presenters with lots of "ums" and "ahs", crosstalking, and a lack of direction in the conversations. They don't appear to have a clear show plan and the interviewer is particularly bad - he doesn't seem to understand the topic at hand and his lazy interviewing style makes listening to this podcast as painful a... more
