If you saw the video tease on our social media posts you caught the getup. It's been snowing here in Central Iowa for hours and I've been out moving snow several times. Hey, it's Iowa...right? Good news is this evening the snow has stopped. In the news headlines today we're talking about Tesla, food, interest rates and more. Also, remember that you can hook up with us all day on Twitter @IOB_NewsHour and on Instagram. That's where you can check out the hat that has been with me for a couple of decades...and looks like it. Here's what we've got for you today:
- Tesla recalling nearly 363,000 vehicles and why;
- Mortgage rates bumped back up;
- Consumers and credit card debt...a story;
- Is "simple" better? Better ask KFC;
- Meanwhile 18 eggs for two bucks!?
- The world's largest food producer has a warning;
- The Wall Street Report;
- And this financial firm is actually hiring!
For the interview you'll meet Michael Berger and Ashley Ezzio from Uplift the Central Iowa Basic Income Pilot. It's really an interesting experiment in how this study might show the benefit in getting a bit more money to strapped families. The program is in concert with the University of Pennsylvania and has been tried in other parts of the nation. However, the interesting thing here is this will take place in a very diverse part of the country when you consider rural and urban. To listen, just click our player:
