About this episode
171 Boeing 737 Max 9 aircrafts have been grounded after a door plug blew out of a plane in the middle of an Alaska Airlines flight over the weekend. CNBC’s Phil LeBeau explains what happened on that flight and what happens now at Boeing and the airlines that carry these crafts. Former FAA Administrator and pilot J. Randolph Babbitt discusses industry concerns and airline safety regulation. The crypto community awaits the SEC’s decision on spot Bitcoin ETFs; former SEC chair Jay Clayton is expecting an approval. Clayton, also an adjunct professor at the University of Pennsylvania, weighs in on the reckoning for higher education leadership in the wake of antisemitism on campuses and the resignation of Harvard’s president, Claudine Gay. Plus, Elon Musk’s recreational and prescription drug use is reportedly worrying his SpaceX and Tesla boards.
