New Yorkers go to the Polls

Big Boss Interview

Available for over a year

Changing times at City Hall, New York, and what's likely to be a sharp turn to the left in the mayor's office. What will it mean for the city? A moment of relief for the company that helps Somalis send money home - but how reputable is that company? And a book that claims to tell the inside story of the world's largest online retailer Amazon gets a consumer complaint from the boss's wife. Plus we get a closer look at the latest tablet - from North Korea. And I'll be joined throughout the programme by two guests on opposite sides of the pacific - Alex Wilhelm of the TechCrunch blog who's in San Francisco, and Shai Oster of Bloomberg in Hong Kong.
