Summary

Academy Award-winning producer and bestselling author Brian Grazer is out with a new book, “A Curious Mind Expanded: The Secret to a Bigger Life.” The creative behind “A Beautiful Mind,” “Apollo 13, “Arrested Development,” and “The DaVinci Code,” among others, weighs in on Hollywood’s strikes, AI in art, and the ways he keeps his mind curious and growing. Two Federal Reserve governors are pointing to the end of rate hikes, Mark Cuban is selling his stake in the Dallas Mavericks, and Disney CEO Bob Iger is downplaying speculation that the entertainment giant is selling some of its assets. Plus, at age 99, investing legend Charlie Munger has died. The longtime friend of Warren Buffett and iconic Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chair was just a month shy of his 100th birthday. Becky Quick, who spent hours interviewing him just two weeks ago, reflects on his decades of leadership, and his ageless razor sharp wit and wisdom. And, stay tuned to your feed for an upcoming special podcast series – we'll bring you the full audio of 99-year-old Charlie Munger’s final CNBC interview.
