Plus: Axios' Neil Irwin with a reality check on the World Economic Forum and the themes from this year's gathering. Guests: Fawn Sharp, vice president of the Quinault Indian Nation, former president of the National Congress of American Indians, and Indigenous Co-Chair for the World Economic Forum; Neil Irwin, Axios chief economic correspondent.
