These moms do an incredible job of explaining the highlights of travel hacking. They provide specific examples of which cards to use and how to maximize point redemptions. Each topic is chunked into manageable, easy to digest episodes. I am several years into my travel hacking journey but am just getting ready to take the plunge into card churning and stepping up my organization of cards, benefits and redemptions using some of the tips I've learned from these moms. I backpacked around the globe in my 20's and now I cannot WAIT to do it again in luxury. Thank you for this incredible podcast. I cannot recommend it highly enough to anyone interested in getting into the game!
