| 0:00.0 | Hi, just leave from work now. Sorry, it's a bit loud. |
| 0:03.4 | Um, basically, so I was thinking we could get Macies tonight. Had a big Mac on my mind all day, and delivery fee on the app is now from 99P. So you win? Of course you are. Love you. Bye!

| 0:36.3 | Wall Street is marking the 10th anniversary of the financial crisis by partying like it's 2007. |
| 0:42.2 | Meanwhile, Tashiba's terrible deal-making launches a nuclear strike on $6.3 billion. |
| 0:48.1 | And will America heed the water woes warning from California's Oroville Dam Fiasco? |
| 0:52.9 | Those are some of the issues we'll be tackling |
| 0:54.6 | in this week's edition of the Views Room, where Breaking Views colonists chart the ups and downs |
| 0:59.0 | of the world of finance. I'm Anthony Curry, and I'm here with Jennifer Saber. Hi, Jen. |
