The recent botched execution of Christa Pike has sparked new conversation over the death penalty in America. In this episode of @guardianaustralia's Decoding America podcast, co-hosts Jonathan Yerushalmy and Reged Ahmad examine what happened when the state of Tennessee tried to execute prisoner Christa Pike. They also look at the controversy over taxpayer-funded ads promoting US president Donald Trump, midterm AI attack ads and how the Elon Musk-Trump bromance appears to be back on.
