Hello, and welcome to another episode of All the Hacks, a show about upgrading your

0:06.1

life, money, and travel.

0:07.9

Now, today I wanted to try something a little different.

0:10.4

In the past week, I've had a couple ideas or musings that I thought would be really interesting

0:14.0

things to share on the podcast, but none of them really leveled up to an entire episode

You can also reach out to me on social or find me anywhere, because if this is interesting,
