Hi folks! We've all heard of the 'economy' but what exactly is it? It's always been presented as an unwieldy monolith that the government and the academics understand but we lowly laymen do not. Suddenly, in these times of unprecedented crises, we have seen the greatest change to our 'economy' ever witnessed in human history. In this episode I get behind the economics of the billions that have been granted to businesses, employees and charities, asking where did it come from, and who has to pay it back? What exactly does it mean if you have been furloughed? Who are really our 'Key' workers now that the proverbial fan has been it, and most importantly, where do we go from here? My guest is Joe Richards, economist and founder of the charity Economy (ecnmy.org, whatstheeconomy.com, @EconomyAsks); he himself is on twitter @joerichards.
