Ashton is joined by Ted Henken, a distinguished scholar on Cuba and professor in the Department of Sociology and Anthropology at Baruch College, City University of New York (CUNY).

Ashton and Ted have a fascinating conversation on all things Cuba and discuss: How Cuba's digital revolution and Cuban's increased access to the internet is changing Cuban society; How stable is the current Cuban regime under President Miguel Díaz-Canel?; Why hasn't Cuba followed in the footsteps of Communist led nations such as China & Vietnam who have embraced more free-trade and economic liberalisation? What is the truth about Cuba's often applauded healthcare system? Why some of the most educated and talented people in Cuban society chose to be taxi drivers, bakers, and even enter prostitution? And much more.
