On today's episode of Loud & Clear, Brian Becker is joined by editorial cartoonist and columnist Ted Rall to discuss tonight's vice presidential debate.

The head to head between Tim Kaine and Mike Pence this evening is the only debate between Clinton and Trump's running mates before November’s election. Both will have a right-wing record to defend.

Trade negotiators scrambled yesterday to get talks on the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) back on track as the 15th round of negotiations started. But with such major opposition on both sides of the Atlantic, are the talks really pointless? Mark Dearn, senior campaign coordinator for War on Want, speaks with Becker about the talks and if they are futile.

In a shocking result, the people of Colombia voted “no” on a referendum on whether to accept the peace deal between the government and the FARC. What does this mean for a country that has been at war for 52 years? Professor and radio host Mario Murillo joins Becker to explain what happened and what's next for Colombia.
