The Next Big Thing

How the world looks through American eyes, and the myriad and unexpected ways that the world influences the United States.

Everyone in Hollywood knows if you need a Russian actor, you call Victor Kruglov. We meet the man who has become a local institution. Also, Hari Kondabolu says he wants to be a “mainstream American” comic; the band Night Lights have to prove they have "exceptional abilities" to stay in the US; we delve into the backstory of Disney’s first Latina princess; and take a taste of a fruit that might save the world. Plus, CoCo Avenue, a stereotype busting K-Pop duo, closes out the show.
