In this very special bonus episode that’s as smart as it is fun, Trevor goes one-on-one with Barbados' Prime Minister, Mia Mottley. Between lessons on Bajan slang, "road tennis" Olympic dreams, and big ideas on global finance, climate change, and managed migration, Mottley proves she’s a force of nature—though even she can’t score Trevor an invite to Rihanna’s next birthday bash.
