Ever wonder why interest rates seem to dominate the headlines, or how public firings have become an American pastime?

Last week, we went LIVE to unpack all the drama after the Fed’s latest two-day meeting: from their anticipated rate cut (was it a big deal?) to the chaos and uncertainty swirling around public leadership… and firing.

We broke down:

* The Fed’s surprise (and not-so-surprising) rate cut – what the Dot Plot really reveals about what’s next.

* Why businesses and leaders are more confused than ever about borrowing, investing, and surviving the AI economy.

* The political and legal circus around firing at the top levels (like Lisa Cook’s legal battle to keep her Fed Governor seat), and

* What it means for YOU: from the boardroom to the break room, can anyone really say whatever they want online anymore without risking their job?

With everything from economics to free speech, reputational risk, and why “watch what you post” is truer than ever, this episode is full of insights (and a few laughs).
