Hosted by Opinion columnist Tim O'Brien, this show will bring sophisticated business reporting to bear on these tales and tap into the expertise of the Bloomberg newsroom to help lend them authority. We'd map out interstitial programming that we run as news-of-the-day installments broadcast in between the longer narratives we produce.
