Here are four topics we cover on this weekend's Motley Fool Money radio show:

1. It was the best first quarter for the Dow since 1998, and we got an encouraging jobs report to boot. What do our analysts make of the latest "Big Macro" numbers?

2. Trouble in the House of Buffett as David Sokol resigns from Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK-A) (NYSE: BRK-B). How big a hit will Warren Buffett's reputation take?

3. Dunkin' Donuts is mulling an IPO. Will its stock perform like the next Starbucks (Nasdaq: SBUX) or the next Krispy Kreme?

4. Are we the only ones slightly creeped out by McDonald's (NYSE: MCD) new TV campaign featuring Ronald McDonald?

Plus, author Jonah Lehrer talks about how investors can make better decisions.
