    02/10/2017: Do you know a hit when you hear one?

    This week, Marketplace’s Kimberly Adams and The Atlantic’s Gillian White go long and short on topics from the week’s news. We revisit interviews with playwright Lynn Nottage and the CEO of the vegan fast-casual chain Veggie Grill. Plus, author Derek Thompson on the science of what makes something — a song, a show, a movie — a hit. 

    US President Donald Trump chats with reporters on board Air Force One before departing from Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland, bound for Palm Beach, Florida on February 3, 2017.
