31. Paul Krugman on right-wing lies, Biden, Bernie - and whether US democracy survives

The Nobel Prize-winning Paul Krugman is one of the world's most pre-eminent economists. As the latest edition of his book 'Arguing with Zombies' is published, we talk about how the right gets away with lies, how they're fought, whether Joe Biden will offer the radical economic alternative that is needed, why he didn't support Bernie Sanders - and why US democracy may not survive.
