This is an IHeart podcast.

Go behind the wheel and under the hood on everything automotive with high speed stuff from How StuffWorks.com.

Hello and thanks for tuning in. As usual, I'm Ben here today to ask a couple questions of our very own editor of all things automotive at How StuffWorks.com. Can we have a drum roll please for Mr. Scott Benjamin? How you doing, Ben? Okay. Well, you know, I was thinking maybe you'd impersonate a drum roll. No, I know. I'm not going to do it myself. It's sound effects or something for that, right?

Yeah, we've got somewhere in the budget. We'll work it up. Probably not. You know what, man, it's great to see you. Oh, thank you. It's good to see you as well. We've had a pretty eventful week. Yes, we have. It's always busy around here at seems recently.

That's good.

Busy's good.

Yeah, and we've had a couple of action-adventure moments.

Yes, we have, yeah. In all seriousness. But we made it through, and we came back today,

despite risk to life and limb. Yeah, that's right.

Because we actually had an earlier episode on the system known as

the car allowance rebate system or... It's also called cars, which is that acronym that you

just spoke about, or cash for clunkers. That's what the cool kids say. Cash for clunkers, yeah.

Yeah. uh let's

see did uh what do we do on the earlier episode well the early episode we had a

guest guest host mm-hmm that's why you're not really familiar with what's

going on here so I'll fill you in a little bit here Ben but Jennifer Geiger joined

me from well she's the online managing editor of Consumer Guide Automotive.

And she spoke with me about an article that she had edited recently about the Cash for

Conquers Program, just a general informational piece that tells you what it's about,

you know, who qualifies, who doesn't, who it benefits, who it doesn't.

It's an interesting piece. So, you know, check that out online as well. You can look at it doesn't. It's interesting piece.

So, you know, check that out online as well.
