Welcome to a brand new month! We kick things off today with a deep dive into how mixed up folks are when it comes to the national economy. It's a report by Axios that we found stunning due to a major disconnect which is? Their personal economic picture (very good) vs. the national economic picture (very bad). But, is it? Also, for the interview you'll meet Rob Taylor a Certified EOS Implementer and we find out what that is. If you want to reach out to us on Social Media you can hook up with us all day on Twitter or "X" @IOB_NewsHour and on Instagram. Facebook? Sure were there too. Here's what we've got for you today:
Wait! What is it that you think about the economy?
If you are a CEO you are doing really, really well;
X to allow "adult consensual content";
Meme stocks are back in business;
Home sellers are slashing their asking price;
The Wall Street Report;
Spotify is raising prices...again.
Those stories plus meet Rob Taylor from EOS Worldwide. To listen to that conversation simply CLICK THIS LINK.

We're a bit late in getting this out "on the bird" because we spent the greater part of the day in Humeston, Iowa a community of roughly 460 people. We took the show on the road for another "Out to Lunch" segment and had a great time listening to stories from our guests Jill, Don and Dan (photo). We learned much about the history of the community as well as their business climate and a community owned grocery store The Front Street Market, the Grassroots Cafe and Snyder's a store like no other I've ever been in and today was their 75th Anniversary! We can't wait to share that segment with you later next week. We'll get to the news in a moment but if you want to reach out to us on Social Media you can hook up with us all day on Twitter or "X" @IOB_NewsHour and on Instagram. Facebook? Sure were there too.
