“Discovered this when looking for a discussion of Muhammad Yunus’s ideas, and got hooked! Have listened to lots of episodes now. Great 101s on different thinkers, and I love how the guys engage in such considered discussion sprinkled with dad-joke style British humor.”

“One of my favorite podcasts!
Combines providing concrete information about the economists with making it fun to listen, thus making it enjoyable to absorb all the information.
I also appreciate the choice of economists covered.
If I may I'd vote for covering in the following podcasts:...”Read full review »
“I have enjoyed this podcast for a number of years having been persuaded to give it a listen by a colleague who kept on banging on about it. A great balance of stories and theories for the economics newbie through to those who study or teach the subject. Naturally I particularly like the mathsy...”Read full review »

Pete and Gav manage serious material with a light touch that makes the often abstruse material approachable. Also, appreciate that they call out problematic aspects of the...”Read full review »

“I love this podcast. It’s warm and funny and really very informative. I’m not a student of economics but I’ve learned so much interesting and useful stuff. The ‘specials’ are my absolute favourites but I’ve also enjoyed finding out more about economists and how their work fits into today’s world.”

“I really wanted to learn some more about economics but the presenters are so annoying I’ve given up on it. Giggling like stupid schoolboys and trying to be funny when they are not really detracts from the presentation. They might know their stuff but sadly the listener will never get to find out!”

“These two young men produce- almost effortlessly it seems- the most inclusive, engaging chemistry you will hear on a podcast. Light humour serves the subject, but the chief pleasure is having them as company. Smart, but never smart Alec.”
