It seems Brian of TPG has taken over the role Randy played a few years ago and is now courted by the travel loyalty industry (and the credit card companies, but that is more of a 2010s phenomenon and was never really Randys thing). Gary and Ben were pushed/promoted by Randy in the past (eg when a news outlet called to get an appearance etc) but not to the extent to replace him entirely.

Neither managed to clearly step out of the shadow of Randy and while the credit card commissions flowed and some ad revenue came in, Brian/TPG gets the limelight.
