    CO-HOST | Make Money Saving Consumers Millions by Making Subscriptions Easier to Cancel
    Oct 20 2026
    In this episode of the Travis Makes Money Podcast, Travis and producer Eric sit down for a conversation about subscription fatigue, frustrating customer experiences, and a new policy in New York City designed to make canceling subscriptions easier. They discuss Mayor Zohran Mamdani's new click-to-cancel rule, share their own experiences trying to escape unwanted gym memberships and activity-tracking subscriptions, and explore why businesses that make it easy for customers to leave may actually be better positioned to earn their business again in the future. Along the way, they also talk about technology overload, the appeal of analog tools, and why sometimes simpler really is better. On this episode we talk about: New York City's click-to-cancel rule and how it aims to protect consumers from deceptive subscription practices Personal experiences with difficult cancellation processes at Planet Fitness and WHOOP Why forcing customers through surveys, retention offers, and unnecessary steps creates a poor customer experience How making subscriptions easy to cancel can build trust and increase the likelihood that customers return Subscription fatigue, technology overload, and the growing appeal of books, notebooks, journaling, and other analog alternatives Top 3 Takeaways Make it as easy to cancel as it is to sign up. If customers can subscribe with one click, they shouldn't have to navigate a maze of phone calls, surveys, and retention offers to leave. A straightforward cancellation process respects their time and autonomy. A frustrating customer experience can cost you future business. Making it difficult for customers to cancel may keep them paying temporarily, but it can leave them so frustrated that they refuse to return—even if they previously liked the product. Not every problem needs more technology. Subscriptions, apps, notifications, and connected devices can add unnecessary complexity. Sometimes simpler, more tactile alternatives like paper notebooks and journaling offer a welcome break from digital overload. Notable Quotes "No one should need 45 minutes of hold music to stop paying for something they never wanted." — Quoted by Eric from Mayor Zohran Mamdani's announcement "If a company can take your money with one click, you should be able to get your money back with one click." — Quoted by Eric from Mayor Zohran Mamdani's announcement "When I'm forced through all these hoops, I just go like, I'm never doing this again." — Travis, on frustrating subscription cancellation experiences Connect with Travis Chappell: Instagram: @travischappell Other: https://travischappell.com A Word from Our Sponsors: - The most successful business owners don't do it all themselves — they delegate.

  • INTERVIEW | Make Money Understanding the Chip Industry, AI’s Future, and the Coming Quantum Computing Revolution with Rakesh Kumar

    INTERVIEW | Make Money Understanding the Chip Industry, AI’s Future, and the Coming Quantum Computing Revolution with Rakesh Kumar
    Oct 20 2026
    Rakesh Kumar is a professor and John Bardeen Faculty Scholar in computer engineering at the University of Illinois and a renowned expert on semiconductors. His research has helped shape the chips powering the phones, tablets, and computers we use every day, and he has advised chip companies, startups, governments, and intelligence firms. In this episode, Rakesh breaks down the fascinating history of computer chips, explains how advances in chip technology have fueled the AI boom, and explores how quantum computing could transform everything from scientific discovery to cybersecurity. He is also the author of the upcoming book The Chip Age: How Semiconductors Became the World's Most Powerful Resource. On this episode we talk about: How computer chips work, why they're so revolutionary, and the history behind their invention Moore's Law and how the semiconductor industry has continually doubled the number of transistors on a chip The relationship between AI's growth, computing power, and the billions of dollars being invested in chip technology How quantum computing differs from traditional computing and when it could become commercially useful The potential impact of quantum computing on encryption, weather forecasting, drug discovery, and material science Top 3 Takeaways Technology advances when people turn ambitious goals into industry-wide priorities. Moore's Law began as an observation about transistor growth, but the semiconductor industry adopted it as a goal and worked collectively to keep pushing the limits of computing power. AI and semiconductors depend on each other. More powerful chips made modern AI possible, while AI's growing commercial potential is driving further investment in chip development. However, this feedback loop also raises the stakes if either industry fails to deliver. Quantum computing could unlock solutions to problems traditional computers struggle to solve. From discovering new drugs and materials to improving weather predictions, quantum computers could make complex scientific problems more tractable. But building useful, cost-effective systems remains a major engineering challenge. Notable Quotes "Think of a chip as essentially an electronic tiny brain." "Moore's Law, it was no law at all. It was just an observation that somebody made." "Science continues to be very hard."
