Summary

Questions have emerged about the tenure of U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem, who is facing criticism for reportedly spending over $200 million on self-promotional ads ahead of the midterm elections - even though President Trump may have approved the expenditure. At the same time, many restaurants are launching Ozempic-themed menus, while bakeries are seeing a downturn in business as more customers use Ozempic and reduce their portion sizes. As a result, businesses may need to lower prices to attract and retain customers. Mark takes your calls! Mark interviews Journalist Steve Cuozzo. New York City is experiencing a surge in real estate investment, with companies expanding and more vacant offices being filled. There is a growing demand for new restaurants, especially those offering vegan and specialty foods. Steakhouses also remain a popular dining choice for Manhattan residents and visitors.
