Summary

Studies came out recently about what demographic Stephen Colbert's audience is. It's a ton of Democrats. Not only did Stephen Colbert's show get studied, but other Late-Night Shows did also, and they all have a key secret sauce to them. Hulk Hogan put in long hours doing a video documentary about him, right before his death. Mark Takes Your Calls! Mark Interviews Columnist Liz Peek.

Jerome Powell should be cutting rates right now. If he doesn't cut rates this week, the fed could lose a lot of money and also it could be the last straw for Powell.
