Our take on The Intelligence from The Economist podcast

The Intelligence focuses on the stories lying deep under the headlines. It's part of The Economist podcasts, a branch of the famous and respected economic news site. There's probably no more respected publication in these matters in the World.
Jason Palmer is joined by an extensive network of correspondents that bring you the stories behind The Economist's headlines and those that should be making headlines but are not.
You will learn about diverse global and local issues, which are covered factually and backed by exhaustive research. The Economist's intelligence is the pure analysis and all-rounded news, from international conflicts to the latest micro-demographic research; you will find it here.
