Harford is doing other BBC podcasts, but this collection of podcasts, are arranged thematically, providing much more information than their 13 minute runtime would indicate. Engaging, well produced, and concisely presented, these podcasts are excellent starting points for further exploration.

Mr. Harford, Where did you go? Please give us some more.

If you're familiar with Tim Harford's books, you'll know what a great storyteller he is and he doesn't disappoint with this podcast. Harford has a gift explaining complex historical events and the economics behind them without dumbing it down and without making you wish he had dumbed it down. If you're into Planet Money or Freakonomics, this this one out.

Smart and interesting and the perfect length.

I've read all his books, and I really hope the podcast lasts.
