Consumerism Commentary Podcast. During April, with the help of Tom Dziubek, a former podcaster from the Wall Street Journal, we launched the Consumerism Commentary Podcast. Tom and I will work to bring listeners interesting stories and interviews with people who matter in the world of personal finance. Last week, the first edition of the podcast featured an interview with Peter Pham, CEO of Billshrink.com, fitting in with that day’s theme of financially surviving a recession.

The second edition of the Consumerism Commentary Podcast will be published tomorrow afternoon, and it will feature interviews with Dr. Bonnie Eaker Weil and Aaron Patzer from Mint. You can download the full second episode early if you sign up for the Consumerism Commentary weekly email newsletter:
