Americans are gearing up to travel this Fourth of July weekend despite higher fuel and food costs this year. Amid record-high inflation, president and CEO of Best Western Hotels and Resorts Larry Cuculic says summer travel is surging in cities like Seattle, New York, and San Francisco. Stewart Butterfield, CEO of Slack, joins Andrew from the Aspen Ideas Festival to discuss what impact a recession could have on employers recalling workers to the office. He says the pandemic has proved that digital infrastructure is now more important than a physical HQ. Plus, a leader of the Federal Communications Commission has issued a warning about TikTok’s threat to American data security, and President of the Cleveland Fed Loretta Mester has voiced her support for a 75 basis point hike in July.
