Could your dream car be more of a financial trap than a trophy? Broadcasting live from the Rocky Mountain Car Show and Swap Meet, the https://fixitradio.com team dives deep into the world of classic cars, emotional purchases, and how to avoid costly mistakes. Expert appraiser Burke Payne joins the discussion to unpack the true value behind restomods, original paint jobs, and one-owner collectibles. They reveal how insurance companies often undervalue vehicles—sometimes by tens of thousands—and how regional pricing and vehicle history reports can drastically impact what your car is really worth. From flood-damaged cars making their way across state lines to hail-repaired vehicles hiding in plain sight, this episode is packed with eye-opening insights for collectors, drivers, and car lovers alike. Are you buying a beauty… or a bust?

Are you as prepared as you think you are? On this episode of https://ready-radio.com, host John Rush is joined by self-defense expert Bill Anderson and Army veteran Brandon Guire to dismantle the myths surrounding active shooter response and personal defense. They kick things off by exposing a dangerous illusion: owning a gun and standing at a range doesn't mean you're ready for chaos. In high-stress scenarios, even the most practiced techniques can crumble. So—what happens when adrenaline spikes, distances collapse, and you’re four seconds behind the threat?

Bill reveals why his training program throws out rigid techniques in favor of adaptive principles—because real life isn’t a shooting stall. It's messy. It's unpredictable. And sometimes, the right move isn’t pulling the trigger. With eye-opening scenarios—like clearing a house with Airsoft or trying to save a loved one under pressure—they show how even "trained" students become liabilities without the right mindset. Can you really trust your instincts under fire?

Then, things get even more real. What happens when you're attacked by eight people on the street? When fists, screwdrivers, or hammers are more common than guns? Bill and Brandon walk through high-risk situations and explain why going fetal or banking on martial arts might not be the survival move you think it is. Distance, awareness, and escape become the top priorities—and sometimes, being the hero comes at the cost of your family’s future. Would your wife and kids want you to go down a martyr, or make it home?

As the conversation deepens, they challenge the blind faith many people put in military-style tactics and security personnel. Spoiler alert: that rent-a-guard at your church may not be the savior you think. With spiritual and physical stakes on the line, the message is clear: train yourself, trust your instincts, and put your family's safety first. Because when evil walks through the door, your best defense won’t be your title—it’ll be your preparation. Tune in now!

What if a familiar favorite just got a game-changing upgrade? The 2025 Honda Civic Sport Touring Hybrid is here—and it's not what you remember.

Can a sedan really get 50 miles per gallon and turn heads with sleek design and near-luxury comfort? Is hybrid the secret sweet spot between gas guzzlers and full EVs?

Find out what surprised John and Richard most in this week’s review on https://rushtoreason.com and https://Drive-Radio.com. A Civic that feels like more—without paying more. Tune in now!

What do classic Mustangs, skyrocketing health premiums, and hidden insurance landmines have in common?

Broadcasting live from the Big Red Lion Car Show at Leprino Foods, Fix It Radio kicks off with sizzling sausage sandwiches, chrome-packed nostalgia, and the best car show food in Denver. But beneath the sunny skies and polished hoods, a storm brews—one that could impact your wallet and your well-being.

Why is a supposedly nonpartisan state agency using political blame games to explain a 28–40% increase in health insurance premiums? Is Medicare really your best option at 65—or could staying on your employer plan save you thousands? And what happens if your doctor refuses to take Medicare patients at all?

Paul LoNigro from https://e-gia.com/ (GIA) doesn’t hold back, calling out misleading headlines, exposing scare tactics, and breaking down the real drivers of rising premiums—like Obamacare mandates and the collapse of mid-sized insurers. And if you’ve ever wondered whether to choose Medicare Advantage or stick with Original Medicare and a supplement, this segment delivers the critical answers most people miss.

But the surprises don’t stop there…

Could taking a lump-sum retirement distribution triple your Medicare premiums? Are you unknowingly locking yourself out of coverage options by missing a crucial six-month window? And what happens when your dream classic car gets totaled—only for your insurance to cover a fraction of its value?

As the guys swap stories about restoring Mustangs, skipping arcades for carburetors, and how today’s paint tech makes yesterday’s muscle look like primer, they drop one last truth bomb: If you’re insuring a classic on your standard auto policy, you’re doing it wrong.

From tax-free HSA tips and navigating Medicare chaos to insuring the car of your dreams the right way—this is the episode you didn’t know you needed to hear.

Cars. Coverage. Controversy.

What could go wrong when politics, premiums, and pony cars collide?
