Money News: Ticketmaster Trouble, Alaska Airlines Merger, GDP Updates and More

Learn how the Department of Justice is tackling the ticketing industry — and what it could mean for buyers and sellers. Before focusing on Congress’ latest ticketing industry crackdown, hosts Sean Pyles and Anna Helhoski discuss the IRS' delayed online seller rule, a revision to Q3 GDP figures, a new survey on money and happiness, the merger between Alaska Airlines and Hawaiian Airlines, and self-serve airplane snacks. Get ready for an episode that dissects the struggle for fair ticket prices and the potential consequences of a ticketing market in need of change. Then, Sean and Anna explore the chaotic world of concert ticketing, focusing on an investigation by Congress and the Justice Department into Live Nation Entertainment. They unpack the sky-high prices and dive into class-action lawsuits that Swifties and other concertgoers have leveled in recent years before explaining what could happen next. In their conversation, the Nerds discuss: personal finance, news roundup, form 1099-K, ticketing industry investigation, Congress, the Justice Department, Ticketmaster, Live Nation Entertainment, high prices, lawsuits, IRS, digital payment processors, Q3 GDP, money and happiness survey, airline mergers, self-serve snacks, finance news, Congress investigation, event ticketing, fees, Biden Administration, and transparency of fees for event ticketing.
