Listen Later

Welcome back, megadeals! Bayer wants to buy Monsanto for at least $62 billion. It would be the year's largest, and the biggest in German history. But Monsanto has rejected Bayer's offer, although it's still open to talks. Will a deal happen? Bloomberg Executive Editor Jeff McCracken says... Well, you'll just have to listen. Plus, Men's Warehouse founder George Zimmer guarantees you'll like the way you look, loves marijuana and wants to buy back his company after a disastrous deal with Joseph A. Bank. Bloomberg Gadfly columnist Tara Lachapelle and Deal of the Week host Alex Sherman examine how he might be able to retake the business he founded.
