It feels like democracy is under threat in the US, if not already breaking. But how does it really compare to elsewhere in the world?  In this podcast we explore the good, the bad, and the nonsensical side of different democratic systems around the world.  We visit each country with two average ordinary voters as our guides. One has lived abroad, so has a comparative or outsider perspective on their home country. The other is on-the-ground now, giving us insight into the current climate.
