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.

Hey and welcome to the short stuff.

This is Josh.

There's Chuck Jerry's here, Dave's here.

His heart is at least.

We carved it out of him like it was the temple of doom.

And this is short stuff about one of my deepest fears.

Your house smelling?

Yeah, I'm worried.

It's a general concern of mine that my house smells and I don't know it but everyone who comes over knows it.

Well, can I start this off with a very quick little story?

Sure.

When I lived in LA many years ago, my friends Bret and Stacey lived in a house in Pasadena

that had a very distinct smell.

It was a good smell, wasn't like a bad smell, but you know, all houses have a noether.

Sure.
