Doing Business in the Brazilian Protests
We talk to a restaurant owner in Sao Paulo and we're live with author Bethany McLean as the former head of Enron gets his jail sentence cut.
Brazil's President speaks to her nation after days of mass protest - but what about the businesses already crippled by the disruption? We get the latest from the streets of Sao Paulo and talk to a restaurant owner there whose business is feeling the effects of days of protests.
And still the smartest guy in the room? The former head of Enron, at the heart of one of America's biggest corporate frauds gets a cut in his jail sentence for cooperating with the authorities. We're live with journalist and author Bethany McLean who has written extensively on the Enron scandal.
We talk to Kai Ryssdal of our US partner programme Marketplace about his interview with the boss of MTV, and ask how does a cool TV channel stay relevant if its audience keeps growing up?
Plus we take an irreverent look back at the news stories affecting the world of work and money this week.
