The Musk-Ramaswamy commission begins talking government cuts

There are new details on the Department of Government Efficiency. It’s not a government agency but a kind of commission headed by tech billionaire Elon Musk and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, which is being set up with the support of the president-elect. Writing in the Wall Street Journal this week, the two entrepreneurs outlined their approach to cutting the federal workforce, although it’s not yet clear which programs would be recommended for cuts.

Could OpenAI challenge Google?

Consumers weigh their values and budgets

While the chipmaker projects continued double-digit growth in the year ahead, it remains hampered by production bottlenecks. Then, we find out what business owners in Mexico think of Trump’s proposed tariffs.

When Nvidia sneezes, the stock market catches a cold

Nvidia is the most valuable company on the S&P 500 index, and Wednesday’s earnings report would be the envy of most companies.

Also on today’s show, U.S. federal prosecutors charge one of the world’s richest men with fraud, and Spirit Airlines joins a long list of carriers that have filed for bankruptcy over the years.

A couple issues 1) you sign up for 1, but get 3 podcasts (2 US based, 1 UK) every day. 2) they semi-regularly veer off from economic to news to political discussions, such as a recent money in politics series. Please leave that to regular npr stories. I am impressed they just used Rage Against the Machine as break music though!
Creepy reporting regarding election.

Sounds like you guys are in favor of corporations putting their hand on the scale to “save democracy”. Democrats are evil and do not respect the will of the people. Disgusting monsters the lot of you.
Love the music

I do not want to listen to Lee Hawkins and I'm tired of hearing the commercials, sometimes multiple on the same episode. This is not the only commercial they have done this with and I’m close to unsubscribing because of this annoyance alone.
