Coming Soon: The Economics of It

Economics isn’t just about stock markets or GDP numbers. It’s the study of the choices we all make when time, money, land, energy, and attention are limited.

On The Economics of It, Cato Institute economist Ryan Bourne sits down each week with leading economists, thinkers, and authors to uncover the hidden economics behind today’s biggest debates. From rent control to tariffs, AI to the cost of war, if it’s making headlines, there’s economics behind it.

Each episode goes beyond the talking points with clear economic reasoning, asking how policies actually play out, who benefits, who bears the costs, and what unintended consequences follow.
