Host Chris Nelson talks to The National's business journalists John Everington, Deputy Business Editor; Dania Saadi, Assistant Business Editor; Jennifer Gnana, Energy Reporter; Sarmad Khan, Companies and Markets Editor; and Sarah Townsend, Senior Business Correspondent, about the stories that caused a stir this year.
