Protecting Consumers from Foodborne Cyclospora Parasite

The people, companies and trends shaping the global economy. Watch Carol and Tim LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF. Food-safety experts warned that plans to shutter a US Department of Agriculture research facility will hinder efforts to protect consumers from the foodborne cyclospora parasite — a risk that’s underscored by the outbreak that’s spreading across the country. The agency is in the process of closing the Beltsville Agricultural Research Center just north of Washington, DC, and relocating its programs to facilities across the country under a restructuring plan announced last year. The center has two laboratories that play a significant role in investigating cyclospora as well as coordinating research with other federal agencies. For more, Carol Massar and guest host Emily Graffeo speak with Dr. William Schaffner, Professor of Preventative Medicine and Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

Paramount-Warner Bros. Judge Pauses Deal With Serious Issues

The people, companies and trends shaping the global economy. Watch Carol and Tim LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF.A federal judge temporarily paused Paramount Skydance Corp.’s $110 billion takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery Inc. saying it “likely” violates antitrust law.US District Judge Araceli Martínez-Olguín in Oakland on Monday ordered the companies to hold off on consummating the deal for 14 days. Paramount and Warner Bros. hoped to close as soon as July 22.California and 11 other states sued to block the Hollywood mega-merger on July 13. The states allege the deal, which seeks to combine two of the five largest studios, would harm competition for film and cable TV distribution.Paramount said it will continue to vigorously defend against the suit.“We are confident the evidence will demonstrate that the state AGs’ antitrust arguments are without merit as their alleged markets and claims of anticompetitive effects are without any basis in modern market realities,” the company said in a statement. “This merger is lawful, pro-competitive, and will benefit consumers, creators, workers, and the entertainment industry.”The judge scheduled an Aug. 3 hearing on whether to extend the hold for longer. The judge will decide whether to pause completion of the deal until after a trial to decide whether it is illegal under federal antitrust law.On this episode, Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec speak with: Chris Palmeri, BN Media & Entertainment Team Lead Dina Esfandiary, Bloomberg Economics Middle East Geoeconomics Lead on 1,000 Days of War and Upheaval That Reshaped the Middle East Isabelle Lee, Bloomberg News Cross-Asset Reporter on Peptide ‘Wild West’ Pushes Everyday Americans Into Crypto Avalon Pernell BN Equities Reporter on Martin Shkreli Is Back and Primed to Fight ‘To the Bitter End’ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Crime Trends vs. Statistics – and Reality

After many years of reassuring declines, some crime rates, like homicides and violent assaults, soared nationwide during the Covid-19 pandemic. These trends weren’t geographically or politically specific: Residents in cities, suburbs, and rural areas all suffered through that shift, and it didn’t matter if they lived in a city run by a Democrat or a Republican – more murders, the data showed, plagued every urban area. On the other hand, robberies, burglaries, and larcenies dropped during the pandemic’s onset. Crime statistics are subject to spotty methodology and reporting gaps, making it hard to rely on the data with absolute certainty. Public safety isn’t a trivial topic and there’s no question that many Americans say they feel less safe on some streets than they once did – despite the fact that violent crime rates are well below where they were during the 1990s. Ames Grawert is a lawyer and expert on crime statistics at the Brennan Center for Justice at the NYU Law School. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Women vs. Wall Street

Wall Street can be a minefield for any competitive or ambitious person seeking a rewarding career, a name for themselves, and handsome paydays. They quickly find themselves surrounded by other competitive and ambitious people looking for exactly the same things. For women, the challenges can run even deeper and for them, the world of Wall Street is particularly fraught. What’s it like to fight through those challenges, especially when your own dreams collide with hurdles – that is, when they collide with men? Elizabeth Rossiello is the CEO of AZA Finance, a fintech and forex company based in Nairobi and London, and her path has taken her through Wall Street, crypto, fintech and Africa.

Weekly Washington Policy Pulse: October 13th, 2025

With President Donald Trump vowing to pay the military on Oct. 15, the lack of a pressure point to bring Congress together to resolve the US government shutdown led Bloomberg Intelligence's Washington Policy Pulse on Oct. 13. The next major catalyst, in our view, would be if Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits run out at the end of the month, potentially impacting grocers like Walmart, Kroger and Albertsons. We also discussed the latest in Trump's threat to place tariffs on China, as well as an update on deposit insurance legislation, which could increase costs for banks like JPMorgan and Bank of America. The Bloomberg Intelligence Financial Policy weekly call is designed to provide investors an opportunity to learn about the most recent relevant policy research, information regarding forthcoming political catalysts and other on-goings within Washington D.C. The call is open to all and is held every Monday at 10:00 a.m. EST. You can register for the call here: https://bloomberg.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN__PqCkwY-S2m3hbQqvVC1_Q#/registration See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
