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

First, Fortune‘s Nicholas Varchaver and Anne VanderMey reach into the “Fortune Fishbowl” and pick out some of this week’s top headlines. Will they talk about Applebee’s new ad campaign, Google’s (GOOG) new “Google Home,” or the latest from the Clinton campaign trail? Tune in to find out! Plus, we’ll discuss Fortune’s 25 Most Important Private Companies list.

Next, Senior Editor Sue Callaway takes a test drive in Tesla’s (TSLA) new Model X SUV. Get her review here!

Then, we hear from some of the companies and visionaries that are leading in energy efficiency at Fortune‘s annual Brainstorm E conference. First up, Bill Ford, executive chairman of Ford Motor Company (F), sits down with Fortune’s Dan Primack to talk disruption. And then, Virgin Galactic CEO George Whitesides and Fortune’s Michal Lev-Ram talk space travel.
Gregg Renfrew, founder and CEO of Beautycounter, swings by the studio to talk about the company’s upcoming partnership with Target (TGT), and how it’s reforming the cosmetics industry.
Then, Fortune‘s Brian O’Keefe sits down with Walmart’s (WMT) Chief Sustainability Officer Kathleen McLaughlin to talk about the benefits businesses can get from instituting sustainability plans.
Rana Foroohar, author of Makers and Takers and Time magazine’s assistant managing editor, then sits down with Leigh to explain how Wall Street is hurting Main Street.

We close the show with Leigh’s take on three of this week’s top stories.

The full show and individual segments will be available to watch on demand after the show concludes. You can find them at fortune.com/fortunelive.
