Unemployment among 16-24 year-olds in the US - at 9.2% - is twice the national average. Andrew Leon Hanna, formerly with Generation, a youth employment initiative founded by McKinsey, tells us why. And have you ever been turned down for a job because you don't have enough experience? That's exactly what's inspired two young singers from Philadelphia, Nalani and Sarina, whose latest single is a lament to their jobless peers. Also in the programme, Dana Mattioli of the Wall Street Journal explains why US retail giant Walmart is looking to move into the health insurance market. Fergus Nicoll is joined throughout the programme by Scientia Professor Michelle Y. Simmons of the School of Physics, University of New South Wales, and Australian of the Year 2018 in Sydney.
