Here is tonight’s recording of our radio show. Matt was out this week, but we were lucky to have the snarky (yet quiet) Stephanie Summer to help us out with our new format of trio-hosts.

Every year computer users using the Internet to check account balances, transactions, and even paying bills grows by nearly 30%. According to one Pew study, more than 50 million Americans use online banking services. 50 million sounds like a large number, but that still reflects less than 50% of online American adults.
