Speaker 1 (00:00):
Stacy Vanocksmith, Max Chafkin, how are you.

I'm good. I'm excited to talk about our new podcast,
Everybody's Business.

Speaker 3 (00:08):
Me too.

Speaker 1 (00:08):
Business news can be confusing, dull or right now a
little depressing.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
Not a fan of the tariffs then, Stacy.

Speaker 1 (00:16):
Uh no, but business is about a lot more than tariffs.
It is what to invest in, what to buy, when
to ask for a raise, and how the technology around
us is changing our lives.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
You're saying this stuff matters to everybody.

Speaker 1 (00:29):
Yes, that is why we created Everybody's Business, a new
weekly show from Bloomberg BusinessWeek, hosted by me, Stacy Vanocksmith
and you Max Chafkin.

Speaker 4 (00:38):
Every week, we'll chat about the latest business news and trends,
and we'll also hear from our friends at Bloomberg, like
sports reporter Randall Williams.

Speaker 3 (00:46):
Hey, I want to learn about v Jane, I want
to buy some blockchain or whatever it is that you're doing.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
As well as our friends outside Bloomberg, like the great
financial commentator Kyla Scanlon.

Speaker 5 (00:57):
And the chaos is part of the strategy, and the
strategy is ultimately a thing around and finding.

Speaker 6 (01:03):
Out plus just about everybody else, three or four days
a week, I would buy two cups of banana pudding,
but the price has gone up, so now I.

Speaker 2 (01:12):
Only buy one.

Speaker 1 (01:13):
What will happen to the banana pudding economy.
