Please enjoy this transcript of my interview with Chris Hutchins<\/a>, the creator and host of\u00a0All\u202fthe\u202fHacks<\/em><\/a>,\u00a0a podcast that helps people upgrade their life, money, and travel. He previously founded\u00a0Grove<\/a>\u00a0(acquired by\u00a0Wealthfront<\/a>) and\u00a0Milk<\/a>\u00a0(acquired by Google), led New Product Strategy at\u00a0Wealthfront<\/a>, and was a Partner at\u00a0Google\u202fVentures<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Most importantly, he is the person\u00a0Kevin Rose<\/a>\u00a0and I call if we want to figure how to get a better deal on just about anything in the world or if we just want to learn about his latest hijinks doing things like getting $200 flights to Japan, running gold pseudo-arbitrage at retail, or booking dirt-cheap trips to Bora Bora. We cover all three and more in this conversation.<\/p>\n

Transcripts may contain a few typos. With many episodes lasting 2+ hours, it can be difficult to catch minor errors. Enjoy!<\/p>\n
