As the leader of Wagner's mercenary group, Yevgeny Prigozhin, defends his "march on Moscow," we take a look at the economic implications for Russia. Also in the show, we find out what sea bed mining is – and why it's so controversial. And we hear about the latest acquisition in the sports industry made by Hollywood actor Ryan Reynolds. Roger Hearing discusses this and more business news with two guests on opposite sides of the world: Peter Morici, an economist at the University of Maryland in Virginia, and Alaezi Akpuru, owner and creative director of Nigerian contemporary womenswear brand Virgioli Fashion in Lagos, Nigeria.
