It’s Official, Bosch Isn’t Ending Yet

Titus Welliver was brilliantly cast as the lead detective in Bosch, starring in all seven seasons until 2021. But the story didn’t truly end there. It continued with Bosch: Legacy, which followed Harry as he became a private investigator while his daughter started her career as a police officer.

Presiding over this grand spectacle for the first time was Kevin Warsh, freshly installed as chair after Jerome Powell was politely shown the door by the Senate last month.

Bitcoin Spiked on Iran Deal News Then Immediately Got Cold Feet. What Gives?

For anyone who hasn’t been living under a rock for the last 72 hours, the whole kerfuffle kicked off with a preliminary, we’re-still-figuring-this-out US-Iran memorandum of understanding linked to getting the Strait of Hormuz open for business again.
