In recent months Chatzky's daily show on the exclusive Oprah & Friends channel (XM 156) has seen a steady increase in the number of inquires from listeners voicing their concerns about gas prices, rising interest rates and cost of living increases; recent news regarding mortgage lenders Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac drove call volume even higher.
