Episode 3258: Senator Bernie Sanders in Second Captains Studios
*CLICK THE IMAGE AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE TO ACCESS THE SHOW *
Bernie Sanders has been one of the most electrifying figures in American life for half a century, and is one of the most high-profile global political figures of the current moment. He joined us in our studio in Dublin this week for an exclusive interview.
Bernie came excruciatingly close to being nominated as the candidate for the Democratic Party in 2016. Now, almost a decade later and as America and the World lives through the second Trump Presidency, he sat down with Ken to discuss how he is organising against Donald Trump, left v right populism and the slaughter in Gaza.
