Summary

Moderna CEO Stephane Bancel finds it “reasonable” to think the pandemic might be over, but economies and politics around the world must recover in its wake. Cameron Mitchell, CEO of Cameron Mitchell Restaurants, discusses the increased labor and product costs hitting all restaurateurs, whether Covid ends or not. Arthur Brooks, Harvard professor and The Atlantic contributor, discusses Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his approach to truckers protesting vaccine mandates. Brooks considers leadership before and beyond the pandemic: “If you don't love everybody, if you don't believe in the equal dignity of all people, you can't be an effective leader.” The ‘Art of Happiness’ podcast host also discusses his new book, ‘From Strength to Strength.’ Plus, big media is making big moves, like ViacomCBS’s rebrand to Paramount Global, and the Squawk anchors are sharing their game show favorites. In this episode: Arthur Brooks, @arthurbrooks Cameron Mitchell, @CMRColumbus Joe Kernen, @JoeSquawk Becky Quick, @BeckyQuick Andrew Ross Sorkin, @andrewrsorkin Katie Kramer, @Kramer_Katie
