Hello, and welcome to all the hacks.

I'm your host, Chris Hutchins, and I'm a diehard optimizer.

We're talking spreadsheets for everything.

I love doing all the research to get the best experience in life

without the expensive price tag.

And I'm on a quest to continue to learn all the hacks.

So in each episode, I'll interview a new expert

and dive into all their secret deals.

Whether they're travel hacks like fine first class,

or staying at a five star hotel for free,

career hacks like landing your dream job,

or getting promoted faster,

money hacks like finding the best credit card

or making extra cash with side hustles,

or even parenting hacks,

like finding the best deals on baby gear,

or skipping the wait list at daycare.

To be clear, this is not a show about how to save money

by eating beans and rice or staying at a motel eight.

It is much more about eating at Michelin star restaurants

and staying at the four seasons for less than half the cost,

or even free with points.
