NEC Director Kevin Hassett & Changes at Berkshire Hathaway 12/8/25

Sitting National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett is shortlisted to be the next chair of the Federal Reserve.

Former MTV president Michael Wolf explains Netflix’s position in the industry and the battle for eyeballs. Plus, Elon Musk is firing back at the European Union after the bloc fined X $140m, and changes are afoot at Berkshire Hathaway just as Warren Buffett readies to hand the CEO reins to his successor Greg Abel.
