成人快手

China's President Xi Jinping has used a virtual Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit to call for global solidarity to build trade and defeat the pandemic. We get the latest from the 成人快手's Karishma Vaswani.

The US has passed the grim figure of a quarter of a million covid-19 deaths, as record case numbers continue to be recorded across the country. We hear from a doctor in New York and, in the southern hemisphere, the governor of South Australia, where a six day lockdown has been announced.

As a result of the pandemic, the cost of global shipping has risen sharply. We speak to Lori Ann LaRocco, author of Trade War: Containers Don't Lie and Nate Herman from the American Apparel and Footwear Association discusses the potential impact on shoppers in the run-up to Christmas.

The 成人快手's Laura Heighton-Ginns examines the growth of fake designer goods, which have become so readily available that they have generated a fashion trend of their own,. Plus, as the outcome of this year's Booker prize for fiction is announced, we ask Claire Armitstead, associate editor for culture at The Guardian, how much of an impact it can have on a winner's career.

All this and more discussed with our two guests throughout the show: Paddy Hirsch, contributing editor at National Public Radio, in Los Angeles. And Karen Percy, a former senior multi-platform journalist at the ABC, now working freelance, in Melbourne.
