Juan Manuel Santos, the former Colombian President, discusses the connections and motivations behind the protests in Lebanon, Hong Kong, Chile and Colombia.

Our Hari Sreenivasan sits down with John Lithgow, multi-award-winning actor, to reflect on playing Fox News chairman Roger Ailes in new film "Bombshell" and turning his hand to satirical poetry in his new book "Dumpty: The Age of Trump in Verse."To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.
