A few weeks ago he told someone not to consolidate debt into a lower rate and just focus on his debt snowball method.

I couldn't believe it.

I've heard him do that. I've also heard him "approving" of someone consolidating once they've established their baby step street cred and argue the whole time his debt snow ball would work better..
I occasionally listen for the stories. Some of the callers have real life "meat and potatoes" lessons. There are also some absolute morons but I still get something out of it.

Some of what Dave says has merit, some not. My biggest annoyance is his math. Someone calls in and says they have 80k in debt, and they make 40k a year. He immediately responds with "you can be debt free in 2 years!!!" Yeah, because taxes, health insurance, and other things don't come out of our paychecks....let alone mortgages etc. That said, in some instances I agree with his consolidation math. Most of the people calling in have behavior problems, not math problems. They need the steps.
