In this episode of Net Takeaways, BJ Feller and Isaiah Harf dive into the week's biggest headlines, all while navigating the best traffic Chicago has seen in years, courtesy of the DNC. With Isaiah sporting shorts and gearing up for a Cubs game, the duo tackles the news with their signature mix of savvy insight and sharp wit. First up, they dissect the audacious $86 billion bid by Canadian giant Couche-Tard to acquire 7-Eleven. What does this mean for the convenience store arms race?
