Free trade deals are making their way through Congress, but what will they accomplish? The health of U.S. banks is under a microscope. Kai spoke with Teryn Norris about how and where financial institutions are recruiting these days. Regular commentator David Frum spoke about the new direction of the GOP. And Kai also talked with Ray Chambers and Time reporter Alex Perry about Chambers’ book on efforts to combat malaria in Africa. Here are the songs we played:
