Episode 41: Milenomics Second Podcast Preview – Wine Deals

A couple months ago we launched the Milenomics Podcast Network which now includes three shows:

• Milenomics² Podcast with Sam Simon and Robert Dwyer
• Milenomics Second Podcast hosted by Garth Grawburg
• The Manifesto with Gideon The Free-quent Flyer

Subscribers gain access to these shows as well as a thriving Slack community, the ability to attend meetups, and more.

Today we're releasing a free preview of recent episode of the Milenomics Second Podcast where Garth and I talk about wine. Pursuing points & miles tends to coincide with being a bit of a deal hound, and here we'll apply that to navigating online wine deals...
