US Elections: the View from Miami

Guest presenter Emilio San Pedro, in Miami

Emilio heads to Miami's Little Havana district and its famous Versailles café to talk politics with Ivette Leyva and Luis Fajardo of BBC Mundo and Rafael Abuchaibe of BBC Monitoring.

Later he watches the final presidential debate at the BBC bureau as the Mundo team pick out what's of most interest to their audience and watch for reaction on social media.

Eating and voting with Miami's Colombians and Venezuelans Emilio referees a food competition: Colombians Claudia Plazas and Rafael Abuchaibe versus Venezuelan Patricia Sulbaran. Whose 'arepas' are better? They also reflect on the recent No vote in the Colombian referendum on the peace deal with Farc rebels, and the significance of the vote from Colombians in Miami.

Multiple Choice For decades, Chilean teenagers had to sit the Academic Aptitude Test in order to apply for university. Chilean writer Alejandro Zambra has gone back to this stressful time for his latest novel, Multiple Choice. Constanza Hola of BBC Mundo, who sat the test herself, puts Alejandro through his paces.

And Fifi Haroon's pick of the world wide web.
