In this episode, Chloe and Emma talk about how Joe Biden has linked the personal and the political throughout a long and successful career. But could the 2020 election force the two apart? They also speak to special guest, press gallery legend Barrie Cassidy, about past presidencies, this year’s election, and what it all means for Australia. Finally, Emma answers a question that still worries us: Despite Biden’s seemingly secure position in polls, what if Donald Trump refuses to leave office?
