After this summer of horrible hurricanes, many regions and islands were completely destroyed. The Caribbean is still rebuilding, but travel to the area has returned. One of the first airlines to get back into the region was Tradewind Aviation. The private airline company was the first on the ground in St. Barts after Hurricane Irma passed through the region. Brothers and co-founders David and Eric Zipkin join Cheddar to explain that despite the devastation, the Caribbean is picking up and moving forward. The co-founders also discuss their new agreement with United Airlines. The private aviation company has entered into an agreement where customers can book travel to one of Tradewind's island destinations through United Airlines.

Trump Administration Shutters Consumer Protection Agency
The Trump administration has ordered the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to stop nearly all its work, effectively shutting down the agency that was created to protect consumers after the 2008 financial crisis and subprime mortgage-lending scandal. Russell Vought is the newly installed director of the Office of Management and Budget. Vought directed the CFPB in a Saturday night email to stop work on proposed rules, to suspend the effective dates on any rules that were finalized but not yet effective, and to stop investigative work and not begin any new investigations. The agency has been a target of conservatives since President Barack Obama created it following the 2007-2008 financial crisis.
