President-elect Joe Biden’s team Monday released the names of three people who will be on his Council of Economic Advisers. Cecilia Rouse, a dean at Princeton, has been tapped to lead the council. If confirmed by the Senate, she’ll be the first Black woman to ever chair the CEA. On today’s show: a look at how Biden’s economic team is coming together. Plus, a Wall Street data merger, a look at COVID-19 in food deserts and what’s up with 5G.
