There's so much news happening around the world that we're somehow supposed to stay on top of.

That's why we launched The Big Take.

It's a daily podcast from Bloomberg and I Heart Radio that turns down the volume a bit

to give you some space to think.

I'm Wes Kosova.

Each weekday I dig into one important story and talk about why it matters.

Listen to The Big Take on The I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen.

Hello people in Vancouver and Portland we're coming to see you in March.

Okay, did I step on you?

No, no, I stepped on you I think man.

All right, well this is as clunky as we usually are.

We are going to be coming to those two fair cities that I learned don't have direct flights.

Yesterday and I can't wait regardless.

So we're going to be in Vancouver on Sunday March 29th at the Chan Center.

That's right, we're kicking it up a notch there so we need your support.

Yeah, for real.

And then the next day we're really kicking it up a notch, maybe two in Portland.

We're going to be at the Schnitzer concert hall on Monday March 30th.

That's right.

And we need your support there too, Portland because again, these are bigger venues.

We're giving it a whirl.

Don't put egg on our faces for God's sake.
