There has been good news for the Greek economy this week - $2 billion of good news. That was the latest infusion of bailout loans that Greece got this week.

Greece was cleared for that money after putting a number of reforms into place as part of a much larger bailout agreed to this summer, the third Greek bailout in recent years. Here & Now's Meghna Chakrabarti checks in on the Greek debt crisis with the BBC's Andrew Walker.
