In this “For The People” special, Nick kicks things off with Consumerman Herb Weisbaum from Checkbook.org, covering the return of student loan collections, the recent congressional moves on overdraft and credit card late fees, and some fresh credit card perks you might’ve missed. Herb also shares important health insurance updates and a few eye-opening AAA stories. Then, Car Guy Tom Appel from Consumer Guide Automotive hops on to chat about tariffs (so many tariffs!), Jeff Bezos jumping into the electric vehicle game, and nostalgic memories of Drive-Ins and the notorious film “Ishtar.” Plus, they take a fun ride down memory lane with some forgotten car brands, celebrate the unforgettable 1974 Dodge Ramcharger ad campaign, and wrap things up with new rounds of #Starspotter and #MysteryShow.
