I’ve never been above a bit of shameless self-promotion and I see no need to start now. Fozz, Stephen and I have started up a new podcast, Points Hoarder. The goal is pretty simple: we take the obsession we have with points and miles and try to help everyone better understand how we collect them, how we value them and how we redeem them. In short, how to make travel better through points.
We’re just starting out with the concept and we’ve got one episode live right now and a second just recorded. You can check out Episode 1 here; Most of the discussion is about awesome redemptions we’ve all recently had. After all, earning the miles can be fun but redeeming them is where the excitement really comes out, at least for me.
I’ll be sure to announce a link to episode 2 and the iTunes feed once those are available. In the mean time, give it a listen and let me know what you think.

Very cool, I listen to podcasts throughout the day and this will have pride of place at the top of my list.
I really enjoyed it. For planning purposes, I’d appreciate upfront info about how long the podcast runs. I had to hit “pause” much more frequently than I’d like, as it ran north of 35 minutes.
Good job!
Congrats. Really cool.
Great job!
Grabbed it off of iTunes this morning and listened to it on a bike ride. Nice work. I was going to comment on the name probably being a misnomer, but that was addressed already in the first few minutes of the show.
I was just thinking that a miles podcast would be a nice change from reading the blogs/forums, and here you are.
Cometh the hour, cometh the man.
Loved it! We need more points podcasts
