Are premium credit cards really worth their steep annual fees? In this follow-up to last week’s episode, The Travel Mom Squad digs into the true value behind four of the most popular premium cards. They look beyond the price tags to compare how these cards perform when you factor in credits, perks, and everyday usability.

 

From easy-to-redeem travel credits to lifestyle benefits that require more effort, the Squad breaks down how to calculate whether a card earns its place in your wallet long-term. Finally, Alex, Pam, and Jess each share which premium card they’d keep if they could only choose one—and why their answers might surprise you

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
