Are automakers quietly phasing out AM radio to control what you listen to?

In this episode of The Common Good, host Brian From sits down with Troy Miller, CEO of the National Religious Broadcasters (NRB), to uncover the real story behind the AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act. While car manufacturers have pointed to electric vehicle interference as the reason for removing AM radio from newer models, Troy reveals the deeper, subscription-driven motivations at play—and why FM radio and smartphone integrations like Apple CarPlay could be next.

Discover the vital role AM radio plays as the backbone of our emergency broadcast system, its immense impact on Christian and minority media formats reaching over 85 million Americans, and what you can do right now to urge the Senate to pass this critical bipartisan legislation.

The idea of “the common good” has a rich history within the Christian church. It’s the notion that, as we pursue Jesus in our lives and in the lives of others, we are fulfilling God’s purposes for His creation. This pursuit can be messy. It means rolling up our sleeves and creating space for hard conversations about real issues that impact our lives. Things like parenting, marriage, finances, politics, art, and culture. On The Common Good, Brian From creates space to have these conversations, to sit with the big questions that we all have, to sometimes disagree, but to always look for the chance to create common good, by following after Jesus. Brian welcome listeners to join them in these conversations, to bring their own questions, hopes, and struggles, and to ultimately share in a journey to see God’s design for all of us fulfilled.
