Podcasts about big take

From celebrity wedding details to the timing of military strikes, prediction markets have opened the door to gambling on almost anything. They’ve also created a new class of insider trader that platforms and US regulators are racing to stop. On today’s Big Take podcast, Bloomberg’s Denitsa Tsekova and Leonardo Nicoletti join host Sarah Holder to break down a $200 million surge in unusual bets on Polymarket — and explore what it will take for regulators to rein them in.

There’s a historic mismatch between fun-supply and fun-demand in the US this summer. Americans are clamoring for places to relax and socialize. But the purveyors and conduits of fun — like airlines, theme parks, resorts, concert venues, camps and more — are all grappling with the same inflationary pressures as the rest of us — making fun more expensive and harder to access. On today’s Big Take podcast, host Sarah Holder talks to Bloomberg's Ben Steverman about why a fun shortage is a serious problem for society — and what can be done about it.

A slate of new data this week painted a tepid but slightly optimistic picture of the US economy: Consumer prices declined in June for the first time in six years, jobless claims ticked down and retail sales rose modestly. So why doesn’t the data match up with how Americans are feeling? On today’s Big Take podcast, host Sarah Holder talks to Bloomberg’s Reade Pickert and labor economist Kathryn Anne Edwards about what the data does (and doesn’t) tell us about the state of the US economy.

President Donald Trump’s 2025 financial disclosure showed earnings unlike anything Americans have seen from a sitting US president: $1.4 billion in cryptocurrency, 21,000 securities trades and millions from his resorts and golf clubs. On today’s Big Take podcast, Bloomberg campaign finance reporter Bill Allison joins host Sarah Holder to look at the ethical concerns the disclosure raises and what — if any — political fallout could follow.

The last few days have brought a flurry of developments in the Iran war. As armed hostilities between the US and Iran resumed over the weekend, news broke that US Senator Lindsey Graham had died. Graham was a staunch supporter of Israel and of the war in Iran. And on Monday, President Trump declared US control over the Strait of Hormuz and demanded a 20% reimbursement rate for all cargo that moves through the waterway. It’s not clear when the war with Iran will end. But when it does, the balance of power in the Middle East will look very different than it did before Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, 2023. On today’s Big Take podcast, Bloomberg’s Peter Martin joins host David Gura to discuss the new alliances, revised trade routes and expanded battlefields that are reshaping the Middle East.

Maine Democrat Graham Platner’s withdrawal from his US Senate race is ratcheting up an already intense run-up to the US midterm elections. And yet, across the political spectrum, lawmakers in Washington agree that they need to deliver — quickly — on promises of affordability. With broad bipartisan support, they passed the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, billed as allowing more Americans to achieve the dream of home ownership. But the bill’s fate has been thrown into doubt by President Trump, who surprised lawmakers by declining to sign it. On today’s Big Take podcast, Bloomberg housing policy reporter Katy O’Donnell and Megan Scully, who leads Bloomberg’s Congressional coverage, join Sarah Holder to discuss what’s in the housing bill, how Trump could still steer its fate and what his intervention could mean for Republicans in the midterms.

For two decades, American universities have doubled down on master’s programs, relying on graduate degrees as their financial backbones. Now, the Trump administration’s policies are posing existential threats to that business model. On today’s Big Take podcast, education reporter Liam Knox joins host Sarah Holder to break down the administration’s three-pronged attack on graduate school and the impact it could have on students, universities and America’s place on the global stage.

Two opaque corners of finance have joined forces: shadow banking and phantom debt. Put another way, private credit firms are backing Buy-Now-Pay-Later companies to finance their expansion into the US consumer market. On today’s Big Take podcast, guest host Stacey Vanek Smith joins Bloomberg reporters J.J. McCorvey and René Ismail to discuss what private credit’s involvement in BNPL means for everyday borrowers, why it’s raising concerns and whether the risks hiding in these spaces could spill over into the rest of the economy.

The federal programming leading up to the United States’ 250th anniversary this weekend has ranged from the genteel (essay contests for grade-schoolers and a national push for volunteerism) to the MAGA-coded (a “Freedom Truck” convoy and a UFC cage fight on the White House lawn). The events are the product of rival planning committees – one created last year by the Trump administration, another by Congress a decade ago. On today’s Big Take podcast, host Sarah Holder talks to Bloomberg Businessweek Senior Editor Laura Bliss about the funding battles and cronyism allegations that have dogged this year’s events – and how they echo earlier chapters of American history.

In just a few years, peptides have grown from fringe drugs popular with fitness buffs and ‘looksmaxxers’ to a billion-dollar black market. Now, with the prospect of regulation on the horizon, healthcare players and investors are racing to cash in.

In the 2026 elections, artificial intelligence is the backdrop for just about everything. The US and Anthropic reached a truce in recent days that lets the company roll out its powerful models to some users, the sort of on-the-fly decision-making that has candidates jockeying to shape how AI is regulated. Big AI companies are pouring money into 2026 state and federal races, dwarfing the cryptocurrency industry’s spending in 2024. And even as AI is fueling Americans’ anxiety about jobs and energy prices, it’s feeding them the ads and information that will shape their votes: According to one survey, 55% of US voters under the age of 45 are likely to use chatbots to learn about candidates and elections. On today’s Big Take podcast, Bloomberg’s Michael Shepard, a senior editor focusing on AI, joins David Gura to discuss what the first AI election means for our current moment.

In a 5-4 ruling, the Supreme Court blocked President Trump’s efforts to remove Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook for now, delivering the Fed a victory in the grueling fight over its independence. But the decision arrived alongside another ruling that allows the president to fire a top official at the Federal Trade Commission—a move widely seen as a boon to executive power over independent agencies. On today’s Big Take podcast, Bloomberg Fed Editor Amara Omeokwe and Senior Legal Reporter Zoe Tillman join Sarah Holder to unpack what these twin rulings mean for the Trump administration's push to assert power over long-independent government regulators, how the court singled out the Fed in its decision and what this means for the central bank and Lisa Cook’s future.

On July 1, 2025, the US effectively ended operations of the United States Agency for International Development, the global aid organization founded in 1961, cutting most staff and moving it into the US State Department.

Nearly four months after the war in Iran began, US and Iranian negotiators are trying to turn their cease-fire into lasting peace. But critics of the latest memorandum of understanding say it mostly leaves President Donald Trump where he was before the war started, with many key issues unresolved.

For a growing number of older workers, retirement is no longer feeling so achievable—or appealing. But staying in the workforce or going back to work in your 60s and 70s comes with challenges, for workers and companies. On today’s Big Take podcast, Bloomberg’s Stacey Vanek Smith talks to the World Economic Forum’s Haleh Nazeri about the factors driving the rise in so-called ‘unretirement.’ And we hear from David Lloyd, a radio presenter who’s trying to give other Boomers a later-in-life career boost.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced his resignation Monday after less than two years in office. Starmer is the sixth Prime Minister to resign in the decade since the Brexit vote, raising major questions about where the country’s fractured political system goes from here. On today’s Big Take podcast, Bloomberg Executive Editor Edward Evans joins guest host Wendy Benjaminson from London to discuss the turmoil at 10 Downing Street. They explore what led to Starmer’s resignation, how soon the man poised to replace him, Labour Party frontrunner Andy Burnham, could call a general election and how the UK’s other political parties might take advantage of the power vacuum.

Everlane, the sustainability-focused basics clothing brand, is being acquired by Shein, the e-commerce giant known for fast fashion. To Bloomberg’s Amanda Mull, the sale reflected how far consumers are or aren’t willing to go to shop their values—and marked Everlane as the latest direct-to-consumer company to struggle. On today’s Big Take podcast, we hear from Mull, Everlane shoppers and the brand’s co-founder Michael Preysman, to understand where the company went wrong and what its sale could mean for the future of retail.

New Yorkers turned out by the thousands on Thursday to celebrate the Knicks’ first NBA Finals victory in 53 years. But Jalen Brunson and co. weren’t the only big winners. On today’s Big Take podcast, Jason Kelly – host of Bloomberg’s The Deal With Alex Rodriguez and Jason Kelly – and business of sports reporter Randall Williams tell Sarah Holder about the business side of the most-watched NBA finals since 1998, and how the series bolstered the fortunes of everyone from merch sellers and New York bars to, of course, the NBA itself.

After nearly four months of fighting, the US and Iran have declared a memorandum of understanding aimed at halting hostilities between the two sides and reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Oil fell and stocks rose on the announcement that the conflict could soon be over, but a lack of details and ongoing fighting between Israel and Iran’s proxies in Lebanon have left many wondering if this is just a temporary reprieve. On today’s Big Take podcast, Sarah Holder and Bloomberg National Security Editor Nick Wadhams look at what each side wants in a deal, how Israel fits into the equation and what to watch for ahead of the formal signing on June 19 in Switzerland.

Think Big, Take Small Action: How the Outside Reflects & is a Projection of Our Inside

It’s the first day of the 2026 World Cup! Ticket prices, transportation, security, visas, Attorneys General investigations and water bottles are just a few of the issues threatening to distract from the play on the pitch. Now that it's time for the football to actually be played, we will finally get some answers to the biggest outstanding questions: Will FIFA’s controversial ticketing strategy mean empty seats? Will host cities actually make back their investment? Will the legacy of this World Cup be its challenges or its triumphs? Athletic Senior Writer Henry Bushnell joins The Deal to discuss all the above and more. Henry tells Alex and Jason how FIFA may have misjudged the American market. He also shares his thoughts on why the MLS has already missed the moment to capitalize on this summer’s soccer momentum, which American city will “win” the tournament and how the 2026 World Cup will be remembered.

Tensions between the US and China have deepened since the last time a US president traveled to Beijing for a summit, in 2017. President Trump’s return to China, in a swirl of dinners and festivities, generated positive optics for host and guest alike, but brought less apparent progress on some of the biggest bilateral sticking points, from tariffs and trade to US arms sales to Taiwan. On today’s Big Take podcast, Big Take Asia host K. Oanh Ha talks to Co-head for Asia John Liu and White House Correspondent Jeff Mason, who were both on the ground in Beijing, about the summit’s deals, sticking points and unfinished business.

In Episode 6 of The Sixth Bureau, a series from The Big Take, with spy Xu Yanjun in prison, the US government pursues some of his collaborators. Plus, host Jordan Robertson gets an unexpected call which leads to a big discovery. The Sixth Bureau from Bloomberg News follows an MSS intelligence officer whose mission was to acquire the crown jewels of American aerospace companies. With aliases, blackmail and the occasional break-in, he targeted corporate giants. That is, until his sloppiness — and a cunning FBI sting — led to a stunning reversal: Xu Yanjun became the first Chinese intelligence officer ever convicted on American soil. The Sixth Bureau is the story of superpowers, their secrets and how one Chinese spy got caught. Listen to Episodes 1 - 5 here.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
