The Tagline

The hidden side of everything — including markets and money.

Full Review

Freakonomics Radio applies behavioral economics and data-driven thinking to every topic imaginable, including many that are directly relevant to investors. Stephen Dubner's episodes on incentive structures, market failures, unintended consequences, and behavioral biases provide frameworks that make you a better investor even when the episode is not explicitly about investing. The production quality is outstanding and the intellectual curiosity is infectious.

Fun Fact

The original Freakonomics book by Dubner and economist Steven Levitt sold over 4 million copies and pioneered the 'pop economics' genre that made behavioral economics accessible to mainstream audiences.
