Nick D – For The People: September 2025

Nick welcomes back The Consumerman, Herb Weisbaum of Checkbook.org, to tackle listener questions and share updates on key consumer issues. They cover the federal government’s plan to stop issuing paper checks, a Texas judge striking down the consumer-friendly Medical Debt Rule, and how shopping thrift stores can uncover unexpected treasures.

Later, Car Guy Tom Appel from Consumer Guide Automotive drops in with the latest from the auto world, including his current test drives, a goofy Chrysler concept car, Ford’s aggressive push toward EVs, and the trend of slipping tiny engines into big vehicles. The show wraps up with another fun round of #Starspotter and #MysteryShow.  [Ep 382]
