We have a great lineup today for Fortune Live, our weekly business show hosted by Leigh Gallagher.

First up, we tackle some of this week’s top news. Fortune’s Anne VanderMey and Stephen Gandel sit down to analyze the Fed’s interest rate decision. Then, we’re talking all things Donald Trump. How will hedge funds benefit when Trump targets companies? What are the president-elect’s conflicts of interest? And how did Silicon Valley’s meeting go at Trump Tower? Our guests weigh in. We finish up the top of the show with a game of “Flop or Fly.” Super Mario Run, here we come!

Up next, meet Meaghan Rose, founder and CEO of jewelry subscription service Rocksbox. We talk with her about how her company is changing the retail experience for jewelry shoppers.

Then, Leigh sits down with author and podcast superstar Tim Ferriss to talk about his new book, Tools of Titans. If you want to find out what tools the world’s most successful people use to get on top, tune in!

And just in time for the holidays, Fortune checks out a startup specializing in bespoke suits. We take you inside Alton Lane for a tour of this custom menswear company. Check it out!

Then, the founder and CEO of Zeitguide, Brad Grossman, shares the businesses trends companies and CEOs need to know in 2017. If you want to be ahead of the curve for 2017, this segment is a must-watch!

And as we keep an eye on the new year ahead of us, Fortune meets with Natalie Kelly, the woman who’s keeping an eye on the future of digital payments for Visa.

Leigh wraps up the show with three things she learned from Tim Ferriss.
