Good morning, Brew Daily Show. I'm Toby Howell.
And I'm Anne Barry.
Today, federal employees are scrambling after an email over the weekend asked them to show their work.
And the Oracle of Omaha, Warren Buffett, with Berkshire Hathaway's annual newsletter out, letting us answer the question, what would Warren do?
It's Monday, February 24th. Let's ride. Happy Monday, everyone, and welcome to the show. Neil is still enjoying his much-deserved break, so Anne will be helping steer the ship for the upcoming week. And since we're going to be hanging out for the next few days, do you mind giving our listeners a quick bio? Who is Anne Barry, and how did you end up in this chair across from me?
Well, I'm breaking down the market news for Morning Brew at a franchise called Brew Markets. You'll find us on Instagram, on X, on YouTube right now. And also we have a fabulous daily newsletter coming out at the end of day. Also hosting After Earnings, which is our conversations with CEOs and CFOs at your favorite public companies. So keeping really busy.
Anne hosts a lot of shows. She's very talented. I highly recommend checking out both of the franchises that you're a part of, but thank you so much. You're a natural fill-in from Neil. You look great over there, so I'm excited for our week ahead. Now, a word from our sponsor, LinkedIn Ads. Anne, have you ever been traveling abroad and seen a distinctly American restaurant?
