About this episode
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent discusses the state of global tariff negotiations; he says talks are ongoing, but it’s up to China to de-escalate. Secretary Bessent also warns that the Trump administration has an “escalation ladder” to climb, should it need more leverage in trade talks. Boardroom co-founder and CEO Rich Kleiman and MLB veteran pitcher CC Sabathia discuss the next era of baseball. The MLB is considering ways to better engage fans, including speeding up the pace of play. Plus, it’s a home buyer’s market, if they commit to deals, and Domino’s Pizza reported a beat, thanks to international customers.
