  • AI in the sky

    AI in the sky
    Oct 27 2026
    Phil and Steve debate whether space-based data centres could ease the energy, water, and land pressures of AI, and whether they could be the first step toward moving industry off Earth. Their conversation ranges from the engineering and politics of orbital infrastructure to climate risk, economic power, inequality, and the future of money.

  • The Nobel Prize in False Assumptions

    The Nobel Prize in False Assumptions
    Oct 13 2026
    Phil and Steve take aim at the so-called Nobel Prize in Economics and the assumptions behind the models influencing central-bank policy. They discuss why Steve believes mainstream economics underplays the role of banks, private debt and financial crises—and why models built around equilibrium and external shocks can struggle to explain events like the Great Depression and the global financial crisis. Along the way, they challenge the idea that economies naturally return to stability, examine the limits of interest-rate policy, and explore the history and influence of the economics prize. A lively, sharp-edged conversation about what economic models leave out—and what that means for understanding inflation, unemployment and financial instability. And why the Novel prize for economics isn't the same as other Nobel prizes.

  • The inequality of fear and greed

    The inequality of fear and greed
    Oct 7 2026
    Fear and greed don’t affect everyone equally. In this episode, Phil Dobbie and Steve Keen explore how debt, financial bubbles, and economic policy can reward those at the top while leaving workers, renters, and households to carry more of the risk. From market crashes and speculative booms to the growing role of private debt, they unpack why inequality persists—and why fear has become an everyday reality for so many.
