The Business News Headlines and Meet Andy Buckley 23 May 2024

It is good to be back with you.  It's been quite the week here.  Early on Tuesday morning our studio and offices were flooded with close to an inch of water during a storm that dumped two-inches in under twenty minutes. That was followed by a storm that knocked out power for 23 hours. Combining the water damage clean up and clearing trees it was a full 23 hours...we were not bored. But, we're back and grateful!  Say, 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:

• The unemployment numbers are out and that spooked Wall Street;
• The Justice Department filed suit against Ticketmaster and Live Nation;
• Traveling this weekend? You will NOT be alone.  Some details;
• The Wall Street Report;
• TikTok to axe about 1,000 jobs and why.

For the conversation you'll meet actor Andy Blakeley who, for several years, was on The Office. But, the surprising thing about that was his acting role was really his "side-gig".  We talk about that, his new adventure in the second season of FUBAR on Netflix, his relationship with Arnold Schwarzenegger (who is also in the show) and his Bride who is a famous acting coach by the name of Nancy Banks, and yes, we name names.  To listen to our conversation CLICK THIS LINK.

Thanks for being here!
