	Description:		The US unemployment rate is at its lowest level for more than 49 years. We hear more from Chris Low at FTN Financial. Venezuela's opposition leader Juan Guaido has called for a general strike. We assess how what was once south America's richest nation descended into chaos, with hyperinflation and a virtually worthless currency. We hear from Venezuelan oil analyst Paola Rodriguez-Maisu. Also in the programme, we examine why domestic staff doing invaluable work caring for the youngest and oldest members of society are often paid so poorly. Plus we look at the business of hostage taking and delve into the lucrative world of celebrity brands. And joining us throughout the programme are Colin Peacock from Radio New Zealand in Auckland and in the studio in London, Jeetendr Sehdev, a branding expert and author.
