Is Kim Jong Un dead? Chilling at the beach? Succumbing to an overdose of cheese? Will he fully recover? Or will he be succeeded by his sister? His uncle? His two year old son? We bring together three of the world's leading North Korea experts--Anna Fifield, author of "The Great Successor", the definitive biography of Kim and the Washington Post's Beijing Bureau Chief, former Under Secretary of State Wendy Sherman and the New York Times' David Sanger--to contemplate what's really going on and what it means. Also, they consider the rapidly declining U.S.-China relationship and what all this may mean for the US elections and beyond. It's a great discussion you won't want to miss. Join us.
