Welcome to the first day of May. In many countries May Day is a day to celebrate and lift up worker rights. Huge crowds across the globe took to the streets to encourage their national leaders to uphold worker safety, pay and other benefits. Meanwhile here in the U.S. the celebrations were much more muted. Coming up some of the big business news stories of the day and a conversation about people who suffer from non-visible disabilities (think autism) and what Jonathan Sutter is doing to help make flying less...fearful. It's a good story. And, you can hook up with us all day on Twitter or "X" @IOB_NewsHour and on Instagram. Facebook? Sure were there too.  Here's what we've got for you today:

  • It's what we expected from the Fed but...
  • So, marijuana is less dangerous but we still have an issue;
  • Airbnb has some sweet destinations to offer you;
  • Today is May Day...but muted in the U.S.;
  • The Wall Street Report;
  • AI is boosting revenue over at Amazon.

For the interview you'll meet Jonathan Sutter who founded TravelingWiki.com an organization that encourages airports to install rooms that can help folks with autism and other non-visible disabilities become less fearful of flying. I learned much from Johnathan and my guess is that you will too. To listen to that conversation CLICK THIS LINK.
