Why Gas Is So High — and The End of Spirit Airlines w/ Patrick De Haan

Gas is suddenly a lot more expensive in Michigan — and Spirit Airlines just shut down for good.

Jer talks with GasBuddy head of petroleum analysis Patrick De Haan about Great Lakes refinery outages, record diesel and jet fuel prices, how a blockade in the Strait of Hormuz is pushing costs higher, and why that fuel shock helped finish off Metro Detroit–founded Spirit Airlines.

After, Jer digs into some details about Spirit's demise and we're looking for your Spirit experiences.
