For those of you who’ve been missing the CNBC anchor since she parted ways with the network last March, a Christmas miracle: she’ll be joining Bloomberg TV January 9 co-hosting “Street Smart” from 3-5PM, pitting her against former colleague Maria Bartiromo and the “Closing Bell” time slot. In related news, the whereabouts of departed CNBC personality Dennis Kneale are still unaccounted for.

As you may recall, a couple months back, a managing director at UBS was pulled over in Connecticut and charged with a DUI (he also had an unlicensed firearm on him, for good measure). At the time, the man for some reason felt compelled to tell the cops that a) he worked in the financial services industry and b) he was coming from Beamers Cafe, Stamford’s premier strip club. As I read the story, a coupla things became clear to me: 1) that guy likes to party and 2) that the cultural relevance of this institution to Wall Street North could no longer be ignored. You may also recall that I proceeded to announce a DealBreaker Field Trip to said establishment, and invited some people from CNBC to come with. The field trip is still on.

Trish Regan’s been look pretty good lately, no? Especially for a woman who just gave birth a few months ago? I’m sure you’ve noticed, as has John Carney, who needed to know more. The crack journalist did some digging and found out that you, too, can look like this, by incorporating a few simple tricks into your diet: cut out food, and breast feed twins (it burns a ton of calories and keeps you honest). Regan has lost over 45 pounds on the plan. Tomorrow, we reveal how Kudlow maintains his 30-inch waistline. You’re not gonna wanna miss this.
Regan had her twins early this morning. They’re two girls, named Elizabeth and Alexandra (the father is Barclays employee James A. Ben). Trish is expected to return to The Call in late January, and in the meantime, it’s possible, if you play your cards right, that Amanda Drury and her twins will come stateside to fill in.
