Cox signs an executive order creating a framework for data center development in Utah after weeks of public outcry over the Box Elder County project, a Taylor Swift concert attack plotter is sentenced to 15 years, and more.

Episode 174 of the Award Travel 101 podcast focused heavily on Hyatt's newly announced award chart changes and how travelers can adapt to them. Cameron Laufer and Mike Zaccheo explained that Hyatt is replacing its traditional fixed categories with a more dynamic five-tier structure across eight hotel categories, resulting in noticeable increases for many properties. Standard award rates are rising roughly 17–38%, while some peak pricing jumps could reach as high as 67%. Although a handful of properties decreased in price, far more increased, especially luxury hotels. The hosts discussed examples like Park Hyatt Siem Reap remaining at 15,000 points per night while Secrets Punta Cana increased slightly from 29,000 to 30,000 points. They also noted positives, including free night certificates remaining valid at top-tier pricing and expanded booking windows for elites and cardholders, while questioning whether Hyatt may quietly shift more nights into higher pricing tiers over time.The episode also covered several loyalty program updates and transfer partner changes. Hilton launched a summer promotion offering 2,000 bonus points for shorter stays and 4,000 for longer stays, while Kimpton introduced its seasonal secret password promotion. The hosts highlighted major transfer partner shakeups, including American Express removing Etihad as a transfer partner in the U.S. They also reviewed transfer bonuses ending soon, including bonuses from Amex to Hilton, Chase to Southwest, and Capital One to Qantas. In the “highlight post” segment, they addressed a listener frustrated with having 193,000 British Airways Avios, emphasizing that Avios become much more valuable when used through partner airlines such as Iberia, Qatar Airways, Finnair, American Airlines, and Alaska Airlines, while reminding listeners that Avios are easy to keep active with occasional account activity.The hosts wrapped up with personal trip updates and practical award travel advice. Mike shared several upcoming trips, including Napa Valley, Chicago, Milwaukee, and Paris, detailing how he pieced together premium cabin flights and hotel stays using a mix of American Airlines, Alaska, Air France, and Hyatt points. Cameron discussed rebooking a tour through a shopping portal for significant cashback and planning logistics for an overnight arrival in Athens after a long economy flight. The episode concluded with a “tip of the week” focused on organizing complex award itineraries using tools like spreadsheets and TripIt to track reservations, monitor schedule conflicts, and simplify “gardening” award bookings over time.Episode Links:Hilton Summer PromoKimpton Secret PasswordAmex drops EtihadHyatt ChangesWhere to Find UsThe Award Travel 101 Facebook Community.To book time with our team, check out Award Travel 1-on-1.You can also email us at 101@award.travelBuy your Award Travel 101 Merch hereReserve tickets to our Late Summer 2026 Meetup in Milwaukee now. award.travel/mke2026Our partner CardPointers helps us get the most from our cards.

We are joined by Harvard researcher, author of The Win-Win Workplace, and founder of Future Forward Strategies, Dr. Angela Jackson, to discuss how organizations can redesign work to strengthen both employee well-being and business performance.  Backed by research across more than 1,700 companies, Dr. Jackson makes a clear, data-driven case for human-centered leadership. She reveals how organizations that invest in employees through practices such as centering worker voice, reimagining benefits, and fostering inclusive innovation see improvements not only in employee morale but also in performance. These strategies directly impact retention, engagement, and long-term financial success, reframing well-being as business-critical, not optional.  Dr. Jackson shares how understanding employees' lived realities, such as caregiving responsibilities and access to childcare, directly impacts retention and performance. She offers a concrete example of a company that introduced on-site childcare after identifying it as a key barrier for employees, resulting in a 98% retention rate among women during the pandemic.  Dr. Angela Jackson is a leading voice on the future of work and CEO of Future Forward Strategies, a labor market intelligence firm focused on helping organizations grow through continuous learning and innovation. A lecturer and researcher at Harvard University, she equips executives with practical strategies to build high-performing workplaces that strengthen engagement, productivity, and long-term growth. Her work has appeared in Harvard Business Review and Stanford Social Innovation Review, and she is frequently featured in The New York Times, Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, Fortune, BBC, and The Economist. She has spoken at TED, South by Southwest, and ASU GSV. Previously, Dr. Jackson was managing partner at New Profit, where she launched the Future of Work Grand Challenge, reskilling 25,000 workers into living-wage jobs. She began her career in global leadership roles at Viacom and Nokia. Her debut book, The Win-Win Workplace, is a New York Times bestseller.  Tune in for real-world examples that shift toward more inclusive, responsive, and adaptive workplace cultures where well-being, performance, and innovation are mutually reinforced.

The Trump administration is moving to undo a 20-year ban on oil and gas drilling near Chaco Canyon, a place of major cultural significance to pueblos in the Southwest. The threat of new oil leases on nearly 340,000 acres of public land surrounding Chaco Canyon has put the site on the National Trust for Historic Preservation's list of America's Most Endangered Spaces. It is the second time on the same list for the land that is already a protected National Historic Park and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The moratorium was instituted in 2023 by then-Interior Secretary Deb Haaland, who is a Laguna Pueblo citizen. We'll hear about the options ahead for the land and the cultural significance it holds.

Luton and Karin Bursa welcome Bobby Holland, Director of Freight Business Analytics at U.S. Bank, and Bob Costello, Chief Economist and Senior Vice President at the American Trucking Associations, for a deep dive into the latest U.S. Bank Freight Payment Index for Q1 2026.The episode unpacks seven critical takeaways from the quarter, including a historic 12.9% spike in freight spending, a rare supply-side recovery driven by tightening capacity and surging fuel costs, and regional breakdowns across the West, Southwest, Midwest, Northeast, and Southeast, with stops on tariff impacts, cross-border trade with Canada and Mexico, and what a $7.22-per-gallon diesel price in California means for the broader economy.Together, they explore why this recovery is unlike anything we've seen since the pandemic boom, what the Goldman Sachs recession outlook gets right (and wrong), and how supply chain leaders can use real, verified freight data, not feelings, to make smarter decisions in an unpredictable 2026.Jump into the conversation:(00:00) Intro(03:29) Introducing the dynamic duo: Bobby Holland & Bob Costello(06:23) Bobby's headline summary(09:47) How industry leaders use the Freight Payment Index(10:01) National-level results: spending jumps 12.9%(10:54) A rare supply-side recovery(13:10) West region: highest shipment levels since 2023(17:20) Southwest region: 10th straight quarter of declines(21:40) Midwest region: strongest quarter since Q1 2018(26:05) Winter storms break the streak(28:11) Canada & Mexico trade: tariff impact on cross-border freight(33:20) Southeast region: the only region posting declines(41:32) Goldman Sachs vs. economic reality(44:28) Freight market forecast: what's ahead in 2026Additional Links & Resources:Connect with Bob Costello: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robert-costello-444bb670/Connect with Bobby Holland: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bobby-holland-4a9355/Connect with Karin Bursa: https://www.linkedin.com/in/karinbursa/Learn more about American Trucking Associations: https://www.trucking.org/Learn more about U.S. Bank: https://www.usbank.com/index.htmlLearn more about our hosts: https://supplychainnow.com/aboutLearn more about Supply Chain Now: https://supplychainnow.comWatch and listen to more Supply Chain Now episodes here: https://supplychainnow.com/program/supply-chain-nowSubscribe to Supply Chain Now on your favorite platform: https://supplychainnow.com/joinWork with us!

A CONVERGENCE between the pagan world of gods and magic and the high-tech world of artificial intelligence is creating a strange Venn diagram wherein the lines between silicon and spirit are getting blurry. We discuss the use of AI by people seeking spiritual enlightenment and the development of a digital futurist that appeared at this year's South by Southwest event, Delph.ai—a reference to the oracle of Delphi, the most famous of the women in the ancient world who ostensibly passed along messages from the god Apollo. These oracles were so important that they were sought even by the emperors of Rome until they fell silent in the third century AD because of the influence of Christians (as we documented in our book Giants, Gods & Dragons). We also talked about the growing impact of Muslim migration on the United Kingdom, where its second largest city, Birmingham, just elected a Pakistani mayor who barely speaks English and prefers to communicate in Urdu. Also: The growing Ebola outbreak in Congo and Uganda now has 750 suspected cases and 177 suspected deaths. Sharon's niece, Sarah Sachleben, is fighting stage 4 bowel cancer, and the medical bills are piling up. If you are led to help, please go to GilbertHouse.org/hopeforsarah. Follow us!

In Episode 173 of the Award Travel 101 podcast, Angie Sparks and Cameron Laufer covered a wide range of points and miles strategies, starting with two standout community posts. Angie highlighted an important discussion about insuring a complex trip booked across multiple credit cards to maximize welcome bonuses. The group recommended considering a standalone policy through companies like Allianz and using tools such as Squaremouth to compare coverage, while also putting the most expensive trip components on the card with the strongest travel protections. Cameron shared a clever positioning flight success story where a member booked Delta flights to JFK through Air France Flying Blue after transferring Chase points during a transfer bonus, saving a significant amount of points. The discussion also touched on the importance of understanding cancellation fees across different partner programs, with Virgin Atlantic noted as a favorite for inexpensive Delta award cancellations.The episode also covered several major pieces of points and miles news, including Chase's 30% transfer bonus to Southwest, IHG's 100% bonus on purchased points, Citi's 25% transfer bonus to Wyndham, and new Qatar Airways restrictions limiting how many people can be added to family and friends redemption lists. Angie shared a recent Wells Fargo business card approval with a $500 bonus that will help offset a large pool deposit expense, while Cameron discussed receiving his Rakuten-to-Bilt transfer and reminded listeners about the updated earning structure for different Bilt status tiers. The hosts also gave personal trip updates, including Angie's evolving Morocco itinerary and Cameron's plans to lock in Hyatt stays before upcoming program changes while continuing to prepare for Greece travel.The main topic focused on “workhorse cards” — the credit cards the hosts rely on consistently for everyday spending and maximizing rewards. Cameron highlighted favorites like the Chase Ink Cash for 5x office supply spending, the Amex Gold for dining and groceries, the Citi Strata Premier for its broad 3x categories and American Airlines transfers, and even the premium Bilt Palladium setup. Angie discussed cards she uses heavily in rotation, including the Citi Custom Cash for groceries, the Hilton Surpass for earning a free night certificate through annual spend, the Venture and Venture X for simple 2x earning, the Chase Freedom Flex for rotating categories, and the Venmo card for Costco purchases that code as grocery spend. They wrapped up with a practical tip for travelers booking independent hotels abroad: always compare prices across hotel websites, portals, Booking.com, Expedia, Costco Travel, and aggregators like Trivago because rates can vary dramatically.Episode Links:Chase to Southwest BonusIHG Buy points BonusQatar RestrictionsCiti to Wyndham BonusWhere to Find UsThe Award Travel 101 Facebook Community.To book time with our team, check out Award Travel 1-on-1.You can also email us at 101@award.travelBuy your Award Travel 101 Merch hereReserve tickets to our Late Summer 2026 Meetup in Milwaukee now. award.travel/mke2026Our partner CardPointers helps us get the most from our cards.

Shat The Movies hits the open road with The Hitcher, the 1986 horror-thriller that transformed an ordinary highway drive into pure nightmare fuel. Starring Rutger Hauer as the terrifying and impossibly calm John Ryder, the film follows a young traveler who makes the mistake of picking up a hitchhiker—and spends the rest of the movie trying to survive the consequences. Gene and Big D break down why Hauer's performance feels less like a human villain and more like an unstoppable force of nature, debate whether C. Thomas Howell's Jim is incredibly unlucky or catastrophically stupid, and revisit the movie's bleak, sweaty atmosphere that makes every gas station and desert highway feel hostile. Along the way, the guys discuss the film's infamous truck sequence, the bizarrely useless police force, and why this movie permanently convinced an entire generation never to pick up hitchhikers. Full movie info below While transporting a car across the Southwest, a young man picks up a mysterious hitchhiker who quickly reveals himself to be a sadistic killer. Framed for a string of brutal murders and hunted by police, the driver is forced into a deadly game of survival across endless desert highways.

A federal agency recognized food allergy as a disability, then limited boarding protection to one allergen category. Lianne Mandelbaum, a leading advocate for airline safety measures to protect food-allergic passengers, returns to explain how the March 2026 DOT ruling created a hierarchy within a single medical condition, leaving passengers with egg, sesame, milk, shellfish, and wheat allergies without the same pre-boarding rights granted to those with peanut and tree nut allergies. This episode is based on her article "How the new DOT ruling on food allergies threatens air travel safety," published on KevinMD. You will hear about a Southwest captain who removed a passenger for asking to pre-board with a pistachio allergy, an allergen that is covered under the new ruling. You will also hear why a Northwestern survey of 4,704 food-allergic travelers found that 98 percent experience flight anxiety and 70 percent were promised accommodations that never arrived. Hear why the guest says this ruling cements airline inconsistency as federal policy, and what physicians can do to push back. Tune into our episode "2026 Cholesterol Guidelines: LDL goals, lipoprotein(a), and coronary calcium scoring," brought to you by Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation. For the first time in eight years, LDL cholesterol goals have changed, and preventive cardiologist Seth Baum says the new guidelines are a long-overdue course correction. He breaks down the new LDL targets for your highest-risk patients, why the LDL hypothesis should be retired in favor of the LDL fact, why lipoprotein(a) screening finally belongs in every patient's workup, what a coronary calcium score over 300 really means for how aggressively you treat, and how to talk to statin-skeptical patients without losing their trust.

Before professionalism swept it away, the Divisional Championship packed out Twickenham and launched international careers. Today, we're bringing it back. Armed with current pros, regional pride, and very little agreement on eligibility rules, our panel drafts four teams - North, Midlands, London & South, and the South West - and puts it to you to decide who'd win. Joining the show are World Cup winner and Leicester Tigers legend Ben Kay, and cross-code flying machine Martin "Chariots" Offiah - a man who actually pulled on the London jersey in 1987. Together with Payno and Tins, they argue, haggle, and horse-trade their way through the ultimate fantasy rugby draft. 00:00

This was another live audience recording, hosted once again at the DDD South West conference in Bristol (UK) - two years on from the first live panel we recorded there. I was joined by a panel of speakers, and this time the conversation focused specifically on what AI means for software developers. After introductions, we dug into whether AI is going to take our jobs, how much code we actually still hand-write, whether (and how) we review every line of AI-generated code, what's going to happen to programming languages, and what advice the panel had for developers just starting out.For a full list of show notes, or to add comments, please see the website here

On episode 210 of March Forth with Mike Bauman, Mike chats with Sean Fitz and Seth Laurent of Les Palms! Comprised of Fitz (guitar), Laurent (vocals), and Volkan Tonga (bass), the newly formed Les Palms is a competitive group in the Southwest alternative rock scene. Drawing inspiration from artists like Prince, The Killers, and The Strokes, Les Palms' indie, alternative rock sound features lyrics which range from topics of pain, regret, addiction, acceptance, redemption, and hope. On April 10th, Les Palms dropped their first single entitled "Second Chance." This Friday, May 22nd, the band will release their new single entitled "Empty Handed." In this conversation, Sean and Seth talk with Mike about how they linked up for Les Palms, the natural progression of their songwriting process, working with producer Chris Collier (Korn, Mick Mars, Nonpoint, Vended), their favorite albums, chasing your dreams despite the naysayers or conventional paths, and more.

What if the most important leadership skill in the age of AI has nothing to do with technology? In this episode of WholeCEO with Lisa G., host Lisa G. sits down with globally recognized advisor Charlene Li—who has worked with 49 of the Fortune 100, spoken at the World Economic Forum, TED, and South by Southwest—to unpack what it really takes to win in an AI-driven world. Her latest book, Winning with AI: The 90-Day Blueprint for Success, challenges a common assumption at the top: that AI success is about tools. Instead, it's about leadership, behavior, and distinctly human capabilities. Together, they explore why most AI initiatives stall, why "pilot mode" has become a corporate trap, and why the real differentiator isn't technical sophistication—it's human clarity, courage, and decision-making. In this conversation, you'll hear: Why the leaders succeeding with AI aren't necessarily the ones with the best technology The human skills that become more valuable—not less—as AI handles more cognitive work Why so many organizations stay stuck in endless pilots that never scale What CEOs must do differently this week—not this quarter—to break through inertia If you're a leader wondering where you still add value in an AI-accelerated world, this conversation reframes the question entirely—and points you toward the answer.

Some people just walked on by, that's what's so shocking about what happened to a man who died after his coat got caught in a moving escalator. And Luigi Mangione is back in court today. A judge tossed out some evidence found during the initial search of his backpack but the prosecution will still get to use the allege murder weapon and a red notebook they say describe as Mangione's “manifesto.” Mangione has pled not guilty. And there was a very shocking moment outside the courtroom when  some his fangirls said the slain CEO's children are better without him because in their words, he was worse than Osama Bin Laden. Plus, an above ground pool giving way, sending about 10-thousand gallons of water flooding the backyard like a tidal wave, washing away the outdoor furniture and the kids. No one was hurt, but now someone's got to fix the pool! And a cute little robot named Stewie caused some big drama. After his owner booked him on a Southwest flight, even buckling him into a window seat, the airline is now banning all robots from the cabin.  To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

Justin Randolph, assistant professor of history at Texas A&M University, joins Michael Stauch to discuss Mississippi Law: Policing and Reform in America's Jim Crow Countryside (UNC Press, 2026), his new book on policing in Jim Crow Mississippi, told through the lens of that state's highway patrol. Using oral history and a wide range of archival sources, Randolph narrates efforts by elites in Mississippi to modernize the police while maintaining social hierarchies, as well as efforts on the part of Black Mississippians to envision a world without police. Highlights include: What a focus on state-level policing adds to our understanding of policing; How the founding of the Mississippi highway patrol brought together various forms of policing in the Southwest, including the Texas rangers; A surprisingly robust discussion of cows, including Mississippi's economic transformation to a center of cattle raising and the rise of cattlemen's “Massive Resistance” in the 1950s; What Nina Simone revealed about policing in Mississippi, and the myth of Southern exceptionalism, in her song “Mississippi Goddam.” Guest: Justin Randolph is an assistant professor of history at Texas A&M University, and his other research projects include histories of police desegregation, rural debt peonage, the Taser, and 9-1-1. His writing has appeared in scholarly outlets like the Journal of Southern History and Southern Cultures. He has also written for popular outlets such as The Washington Post, The Mississippi Encyclopedia, and the Mississippi Center for Investigative Reporting. He has received an American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS) Fellowship and prizes from both the Southern Historical Association and Agricultural History Society.

What happens when the poorest people on earth get access to the richest content in the world? In this solo episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius shares what he observed in rural Tanzania, including rising rates of domestic violence, substance abuse, and unwed mothers, and the surprising correlation that local nonprofit workers on the ground have tied it to: smartphones and social media. For the first time, people with very little are now watching people with everything, and the psychological fallout mirrors what we see in the Western world more than anyone wants to admit. Darius also revisits his own "compare despair" moment after meeting Elon Musk backstage at South by Southwest in 2018, where, despite running a multi-hundred-million-dollar company, he walked away feeling like a failure. The lesson? Comparison is a global disease, and the antidote is not competition. It is partnership, purpose, and learning to measure yourself against yourself. In this episode, Darius will discuss: (00:00) Trillionaires in Tanzania: An Introduction (02:32) Experiencing Poverty and Joy in Tanzania (05:32) The Impact of Social Media on Local Communities (08:05) Comparative Despair: A Global Issue (10:43) Personal Reflections on Comparison and Success (16:27) Rethinking Value and Community in a Comparative World Connect with Darius: Website: https://therealdarius.com/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dariusmirshahzadeh/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imthedarius/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Thegreatnessmachine  Book: The Core Value Equation https://www.amazon.com/Core-Value-Equation-Framework-Limitless/dp/1544506708 Write a review for The Greatness Machine using this link: https://ratethispodcast.com/spreadinggreatness.  Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, we kick things off by examining a landmark Supreme Court decision that fundamentally reshapes liability for the freight brokerage industry. The Court ruled unanimously on Thursday that the safety exception of the Federal Aviation Administration Authorization Act includes freight brokers, settling conflicting circuit court cases and clearing the way for negligent-hiring claims in state court. The decision in Montgomery versus Caribe Transport II allows C.H. Robinson to return as a defendant when the case is remanded to the Seventh Circuit. Next, we explore the ocean freight sector where carriers are tightening trans-Pacific eastbound capacity by blanking sailings around China's May Day holiday, creating the firmest supply-demand environment of the year. Meanwhile, Houston's containerized cargo volumes are surging as West Coast ports see year-over-year declines, driven by ship canal improvements that now allow larger and heavier vessels to access the Gulf Coast port. Executives expect carriers to hold mid-May general rate increases as tighter vessel supply supports higher pricing heading into summer shipping season. Finally, we cover a massive infrastructure investment to optimize distribution across the Southwest as Dollar Tree opens a one million-square-foot distribution center in Litchfield Park, Arizona. The climate-controlled facility, one of Dollar Tree's largest, will service about seven hundred stores across five states and help move product closer to stores for faster customer delivery. The value retailer now operates nineteen distribution centers supporting over nine thousand stores across North America.

Bordeaux: The Food Capital of Southwest France You Need to Know is the latest episode of Fabulously Delicious — and it makes the case that this UNESCO World Heritage city is one of the most extraordinary and most underrated food destinations in all of France. Most people arrive in Bordeaux for the wine. This episode is about everything else — the lamprey, the canelé, the Aquitaine caviar, the markets, the chefs and the two thousand years of trade and cultural collision that made this port city on the Garonne one of the great eating cities of Europe.The first half covers the full history of Bordeaux — from the Celtic tribe who first settled on the crescent of the Garonne around 300 BC, through three centuries of English rule following Eleanor of Aquitaine's marriage to Henry Plantagenet in 1152, to the eighteenth century golden age that built the Grand-Théâtre, the Place de la Bourse and one of the most beautiful waterfronts in Europe. We cover what makes Bordeaux cuisine unlike anything else in France — a cuisine built at the crossroads of Atlantic, Mediterranean and Iberian influences, shaped by what arrived at the docks and what grew in the surrounding countryside.The second half goes deep into three of the most extraordinary food products Bordeaux has given the world — the canelé, born from the leftover egg yolks of the wine trade; lamprey à la bordelaise, the true à la bordelaise dish that most visitors never discover; and Aquitaine caviar, the only PGI protected caviar in the world, farmed in the rivers of the Gironde. We also cover the remarkable figures Bordeaux has given to French gastronomy — from Adolphe Dugléré, who served the Dinner of the Three Emperors in 1867, to Raymond Oliver, Philippe Etchebest and Hélène Darroze.Support the showMy book Paris: A Fabulous Food Guide to the World's Most Delicious City is your ultimate companion.

This week on Miles To Go, Richard and Ed break down a surprising set of flight prices, including transcon fares that stretch well into four-figure territoryr. As demand patterns shift and airlines lean into premium seating, travelers are feeling the squeeze — especially on peak travel windows. They also dive into JetBlue's latest move: a targeted status match aimed at former Spirit Airlines elites. It's a smart play to capture displaced loyalty, but the path to keeping status may be tougher than it looks. Meanwhile, a real-world travel story highlights something you don't see every day — Southwest Airlines stepping up with exceptional customer service to get a delayed traveler on an earlier flight when other airlines likely wouldn't have. Plus, first impressions of a refreshed United breakfast offering (with mixed reviews), new international routes from Seattle, and why some airport lounges are still struggling with overcrowding.

One guy walked onto an active airport runway. Lern walked directly into Vegas with equal confidence. Somehow only one of those decisions involved free pastries and Gwen Stefani.In today's beautifully chaotic episode of your favorite daily comedy show, the gang reacts to the horrifying Denver airport tarmac incident where a man breached security and was tragically sucked into a jet engine during takeoff. Naturally, the conversation immediately spirals into Bigfoot theories, airline seating debates, crop dusting near airplane bathrooms, and why Lern believes she personally serves as in-flight security on Southwest flights.

Do any of the luxury hotel booking platforms (like Amex Fine Hotels + Resorts®) allow booking for others? If you are hotel chain agnostic, should you have a hotel credit card? We answered these questions and more on the Ask Us Anything hosted live on YouTube on May 6th, 2026.(00:16) - I have 14999 Delta Sky Miles and need one more lousy point to be able to book an award ticket. I can transfer 1000 points from Amex, but that seems like a waste. I tried to convince Delta support to comp me a point, but they were seemingly unable to help. Any suggestions (other than getting the Delta Amex card)? (04:03) - If you have complete flexibility to position to any airport in Europe to fly home to the USA, are flexible on arrival airport in the USA/Canada/Mexico, and time wasn't a constraint, but you would like a good points redemption in J (not first), where would you position to and which airline would you book on? (08:39) - ​If you are hotel chain agnostic, should you have a hotel credit card? (12:24) - Question on 5/24 if over, are there any data points on the United or Southwest business card? (14:38) - Should we now value Membership Rewards points higher than Chase Ultimate Rewards points? I'd rather have an American Express Platinum Card® than a Chase Sapphire Reserve® Card at this point. Would you guys disagree? (19:50) - Do any of the luxury hotel booking platforms (e.g., Amex Fine Hotels + Resorts®, The Edit by Chase Travel℠, etc.) allow booking for others? (22:57) - ​At what cash back rate do you prefer cash over miles/points (excluding when you are working on a welcome offer)? (27:50) - Do you think we'll finally see an Ultimate Rewards Hyatt transfer bonus in the future? (30:15) - Question - Greg has mentioned a few times about being able to pay for the fees on British Airways with Avios, as a card benefit. I can't seem to see how to make that work. Any more details? (34:43) - ​For airlines that allow a stopover on an award flight, has your experience required a phone call reservation, or have you booked a stopover online? (37:03) - ​Can I apply corporate codes when booking hotels through Rove? Can Rove act like a shopping portal? Get corporate rates and Rove miles. (39:00) - ​​Is it possible to product change the old aviator if I've had it for less than a year now that it was product changed? I know banks frown upon this before the first annual fee posts. (40:58) - ​Barclays American Airlines card transferred to Citi. What would be the best course of action to get the welcome offer on the Citi American Airlines card now that I have one, but haven't previously gotten the welcome offer? (44:01) - ​​Does the FM team know if I make a reservation with the 25k Atmos Summit Companion certificate, and later cancel the reservation before the original expiry, if the certificate is returned and can be reused? (44:38) - ​Can I use Hyatt points for suite upgrades with cash booking through Amex Fine Hotels + Resorts®?

The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – For one airline captain, that moment nearly slipped away without recognition. After a long career in aviation, his final flight was supposed to be a symbolic closing chapter. Instead, it was canceled when his airline abruptly ceased operations, leaving his retirement without ceremony, without closure, and without the honor he had earned...

Merger Blocked by Antitrust Action: JetBlue offered $3.8 billion to acquire Spirit in 2022. Shareholders, unions, and both companies supported the merger. The DOJ and Department of Transportation, urged by Elizabeth Warren and supported by Buttigieg and Biden, sued to stop it. A federal judge blocked the merger in January 2024. Consequences Claimed: Spirit declared bankruptcy and shut down, leading to: ~17,000 direct job losses Estimated 40,000+ indirect jobs affected Loss of service to dozens of smaller cities Reduced airline competition and higher fares on former Spirit routes (examples cited include increases of 15–66%). Critique of Antitrust Reasoning: Speakers argue antitrust law should protect consumers, not competitors. They claim the DOJ incorrectly defined the market as “ultra‑low‑cost airlines” instead of the broader airline market, making Spirit and JetBlue appear dominant when they were actually small players. They assert the decision strengthened the Big Four airlines (American, Delta, United, Southwest), which already control ~75–80% of the market. Rebuttal to Alternative Explanations: Democrats are criticized for blaming Spirit’s failure on fuel price increases or Trump-era policies. The speakers argue fuel price volatility affects all airlines and that Spirit would have been better positioned to withstand it with the merger funds. Internal Democratic Dissent: A Biden White House policy official publicly questioned whether blocking the merger was the right decision, though later softened the statement—used as evidence of internal doubts. Government Bailout Rejected: A proposed $500M government bailout (for 90% ownership) was discussed but rejected. The speakers strongly oppose government ownership of airlines, labeling it socialism and economically incompetent. Broader Ideological Argument: The collapse is framed as an example of government overreach, poor understanding of business, and ideological decision-making harming workers and consumers. The episode is used to argue that free‑market competition—not government control—is essential to lower prices and innovation. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
