Herb Weisbaum is back just in time for tax season, and he comes loaded with advice that actually matters. We talk through smart tax-time tips, how the AI boom has quietly pushed up the price of computers and phones, and the ways marketers are getting sneakier when it comes to kids. Herb also puts me on the spot with a few questions from the College of Knowledge quiz, which goes about as well as you’d expect.
Car Guy Tom Appel from Consumer Guide Automotive joins in to cover what’s happening on the road right now. We get into Tesla’s ongoing struggles, the best-selling convertibles of 2025, what might be the worst-looking Cadillac ever made, Mazda’s move upmarket, and why car payments feel downright brutal these days.
We wrap things up with fresh rounds of StarSpotter and MysteryShow, keeping the mix of useful info, car talk, and nonsense exactly where it belongs. [Ep 426]
