Folks often ask, "Why do you people do a business only broadcast?" We found that giving voice to business is something that we can all celebrate and this brief interview is what we're all about:We had some major technical issues during the live broadcast but, this is such a good story (and we'll have them back) that we want you to listen in. We were able to rescue the tail end of the interview with brothers Phillip and Angelo Campos founders of Tres Mendes Salsa of Grimes, Iowa. Have a listen...and YOU can help them out.Insight on Business the News Hour with Michael Libbie is heard Monday - Friday from 5PM to 6PM on 1350-KRNT, Des Moines.

This
is Insight on Business the News Hour for Thursday, November 07, 2013. My name is Michael Libbie and we broadcast live M-F at 5PM on 1350-KRNT, Des Moines. But we know you can't always listen on our time so we've created this podcast page with our interview portions of the broadcast. In the first half hour we make welcome Amy Friedrich a vice president at The
Principal to discuss the Principal Financial Well-Being Survey that took the
economic pulse of 604 small to medium size business owners. What do they have to say about the economy,
their future expectations and hiring?
We’ll find out in an extended interview with Amy. Then, next half hour we’ll be visiting with Brian
Buethe of the Grimes Chamber and Economic Development Office. As communities in the Metro continue to
expand we thought it might be a good time to reach out to Grimes and learn
what’s going on in that growing community.
Brian Buethe, next half hour. You can comment and question on Twitter @IoB_NewsHour before, during and after the broadcast and our Facebook Page with photos, videos and more is right here.
