Show Notes

P.M. Edition for June 8. Pepsi has rolled out 35 driverless trucks to ship Cheetos, Doritos, and other products on the public roads in Arizona. Journal reporter Esther Fung took a ride in one. Plus, a judge invalidated the Trump administration’s $100,000 fee for new H-1B visas. And as the World Cup kicks off across 16 North American cities this week, occupancy rates in U.S. hotels are lagging behind. We hear about the reasons why from WSJ real estate reporter Kate King, and what it means for the economic boost cities were hoping for from the World Cup. Alex Ossola hosts.
