The resignation of a top Texas bankruptcy judge after it emerged he was dating a leading lawyer has rocked the insolvency world. To analyze the fallout, we're joined by Steven Church and Amelia Pollard from Bloomberg News. Creditors may now challenge some of the judge's prior rulings, while his downfall revives scrutiny of where companies are filing for bankruptcy. Also in this episode of the Credit Edge, Bloomberg News senior editor James Crombie asks Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Spencer Cutter about a consolidation wave in the energy sector. Exxon Mobil's acquisition of Pioneer Natural Resources may spur oil and gas sector consolidation that would boost bonds, Cutter says.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Photographer Walker Evans said, “Stare. It is the way to educate your eye, and more. Stare, pry, listen, eavesdrop. Die knowing something. You are not here long." Pay attention to this world. Learn something. And then, I might add, give it away. Before you die. Because life is short and there’s so much to say. Stare We writers join the photographers and fine artists and children as the watchers, staring at the world around us, noticing what others brush past or ignore. We’re the ones who see and take note. We pry, listen, eavesdrop. We press in and push out, serving as a conduit of whatever truth we’ve taken in. Share Whatever you learn, whatever you know, whatever you see and hear, write it. Share it. Pass it on. You have stories to tell that only you can tell because you were the one who was there—you were the one who took time to notice and see what others missed. We stare a long time and sometimes stand up, walk to another location to gain a different perspective, and stare even longer—this time from that other angle. Capture it. Verify, as much as possible. And bear witness with honesty and humility. We play with words as we tell the truth. We may speak truth others can’t articulate on their own, or we speak truth others can’t bring themselves to utter. We often speak the truth others can't quite wrap their minds around, but when they see it, read it, hear it, they’ll “get it.” All because we stopped to stare. All because we were willing to share. The Unexpected in the Everyday Sophie Howarth & Stephen McLaren, authors of Street Photography Now, respond in part to the Walker Evans quote, as they describe the work of street photographers in terms that sound something like the work of writers. They say: Street photographers elevate the commonplace and familiar into something mythical and even heroic. They thrive on the unexpected, seeing the street as a theatre of endless possibilities, the cast list never fixed until the shutter is pressed. They stare, they pry, they listen and they eavesdrop, and in doing so they hold up a mirror to the kind of societies we are making for ourselves. At a time when fewer and fewer of the images we see are honest representations of real life, their work is more vital than ever. (excerpted in The Telegraph) We writers can do the same kind of work as the street photographers. When we do, we elevate the commonplace and familiar into something bigger, even “mythical” or “heroic.” We, too, thrive on the unexpected in the everyday. Our work, too, is more vital than ever. Make Much of What Others Pass By Dinty Moore of Brevity Magazine tweeted a quote from Steven Church, who said: "I think our obligation as essayists is to make too much of things that other people wouldn’t make much of." Essayists, poets, novelists, memoirists: look around. In the commonplace, familiar world we inhabit, we see the bigger themes, the more profound truths, the window into what our world is becoming. We do this, in part, by noting what some small piece of it has become. We make much of things others pass right by. Every writer can learn from the street photographers. We can learn to stare. Pry. Eavesdrop. Take it all in. Use every sense. Take it all in and get it all down, even if you don’t write about it until a week later, a month later, a year later. But don’t wait too long. Help the World Begin to See In the play Our Town, the character Emily is speaking to her loved ones when she says, "I love you all, everything. - I cant look at everything hard enough.” Her monologue models attention to detail and inspires every theatergoer, every writer—every human being—to do the same. She cries out to her family to look at each other. She realizes too late how fast life goes, how we don’t have time—or take time—to look at one another. "All that was going on in life and we never noticed,” she says. She takes one last look as she says goodbye to the world—to the town,
