About this episode
On Monday night Joe Biden made what was almost certainly his final speech as US President, and Lewis and Jon were in the hall at the Democratic National Convention to watch it all.
It was the speech Biden never wanted to make. But did it ensure a smooth handover of the baton to his VP Kamala Harris?
Later in the show we bring you a special report from outside the convention centre earlier on Monday where thousands protested against the US government's policy regarding the war in Israel and Gaza.
