Wish I knew this podcast when they first started. Chris and Katie do a top notch job on this podcast! Love their podcast format. They don’t swear which I love! It’s huge turnoff for me when podcasters swear profanity. Thank you Chris and Katie for your service and sharing tips when it comes to travel and credit card points and miles. Keep going!! Never give up. Your podcast uplifts my day.
They had someone from Hilton Honors on the podcast. Hilton has driven their points into the ground. They have had some devastating devaluations lately. Several in the last year. Not one question. All they could do was gush over the program. Makes me think they are getting paid. Not asking that they ambush or beat up the guy but don’t you have to ask one question? Makes me question their ethics and motivations.
My new favorite travel podcast. Every episode they provided with useful information. And it’s the perfect length.
This podcast is an incredible resource for both points and miles experts and those just beginning their journey. These experts truly know their craft. Learn how to use credit card points and loyalty accounts to travel fly and stay via incredible travel deals.
thank you!
