On economics... and being human. How pivotal is good economics to our everyday existence? How good can society be? Is Brexit England's nervous breakdown? Join - and challenge - well-regarded economists Will Hutton and David McWilliams, moderated by BBC Radio 4 broadcaster Andrea Catherwood, for all the answers...and laughs.

Will is the Principal of Hertford College Oxford, co-founder of the Big Innovation Centre and co-chair of the Purposeful Company Taskforce (a group of leading companies examining how best to put purpose at the heart of their business model – and how the wider eco-system could better support them). He has chaired a number of commissions for the UK government, notably on Fair Pay for the Coalition and the Creative Industries for the Blair government, and was rapporteur of the Kok Commission's inquiry into shaping the EU’s knowledge economy in 2005. He was a member of the Scott Trust that owns the Guardian and Observer between 2005 and 2017. He has written seven best-selling books on political economy and business, notably the State We’re In, the Writing on the Wall ( on China), Them and Us and more recently, with Andrew Adonis, Saving Britain - the case for a second vote for the UK to stay in the EU. He writes a regular column for the Observer and is a well–known British commentator and public intellectual.

David is an economist, author, journalist, documentary-maker and broadcaster. He is adjunct Professor of Global Economics at Trinity College Dublin. He has devoted his professional life to the objective of making economics as widely available and easily understandable on as many platforms and to as many people as possible – and is having a laugh doing it. He co-founded the world’s only economics and stand-up comedy festival Kilkenomics – described by the FT as “simply, the best economics conference in the world”. He also co-founded Ireland’s leading literary and ideas shindig, the Dalkey Book Festival. The WEF at Davos debased their currency profoundly by making him a Young Global Leader a few years back. As well as writing a weekly economics column in The Irish Times, he was named Ireland’s “most influential Twitter user” in 2016. David uses new ways to explain our economic world for example Punk Economics, deploying cartoons to make economics digestible for normal, non-nerdy, punters.David has written four bestsellers and one of these The Pope’s Children was the best selling nonfiction ever published in Ireland. His writing style is described by Stephanie Flanders, as having “a great knack for bringing a complex economics story to life. He is also funny. In economics, that’s a rare and persuasive combination.” His fifth book, Renaissance Nation, is out November 2018.
