New Books in Economics

Booking Overview

An academic economics book-interview podcast focused on economics, political economy, and newly published research, typically featuring scholars, authors, and occasional senior business or economic practitioners discussing recent books and research with an expert interviewer. PR agencies could credibly pitch economists, policy researchers, economic historians, university professors, and business leaders with substantive books or major research reports; booking difficulty is medium because guests generally need a strong publication or research credential but the specialized format is accessible to qualified experts.
