Sometimes we start an interview thinking that we’re going to talk about one thing, and then the conversation takes an unexpected turn.
Stewart recently spoke with Brian Klaas, a Fellow at the London School of Economics, expecting that they would discuss gerrymandering – and they did, eventually. But first the conversation veered down a dark path: the global rise of authoritarianism.
Brian's written a book about this disturbing subject. It's called "The Despot's Accomplice."
