Hey there TPP Listeners,

In this show, we focus on a new Amex Graphite Business Charge Card (the 2x), 5x opportunities in Q2 as well as a 5x platform that's going away, and we also get into a crazy 57x Rove booking stunt that could turn into a way to buy JL miles at ~1.1 - 1.2 cpp.

In our main discussion, we talk about how Kristoff spun up a brand new player to the churning game (and how we got spun up ourselves)

Timestamps:

01:09 - Amex Graphite™ Business Cash Unlimited Card

We hope you enjoy the show! -TPP

Hey TPP listeners,

It’s January and you know what that means, we’re getting to work on incidentals, but also we’re taking some time to think about how we approach incidentals.

Other than this, we have some feelings about all the Bilt v2.x noise.

We end the show with upcoming vacations we’re (still) gardening. We hope you enjoy the show! -TPP
