Candice Cole heads to Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport to find out how travellers are coping with hundreds of flights being grounded, a consequence of the record-breaking U.S. government shutdown. Plus, stock and awe: Anne Gaviola reports on the enormous deal at Tesla that would see CEO Elon Musk hit the road to becoming the world's first trillionaire. And reconciliation mission: Marney Blunt reports on the drive to support Indigenous veterans after their service. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
