About the program
Debuting on October 15, 2007, this program takes viewers outside work to get the inside story of what's making news inside and outside the business world. This show, which originally consisted of 2 co-hosts, Rebecca Gomez (now Rebecca Diamond) and Cody Willard, is set in a bar as it is produced at the Bull & Bear pub in the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York City. The show concluded its run on June 4, 2010; to be replaced by "The Willis Report," anchored by Gerri Willis three days later.
Eric Bolling, who was previously a panelist on CNBC's Fast Money and is now a co-host of Fox News Channel's The Five and a host of Fox Business Network's Follow The Money, joined the show as a panelist in August 2008 until he became the show's third co-host in November of that same year.
