In this excerpt, Betsey Stevenson explains that the economics podcast was launched during the COVID‑19 pandemic as a response to the challenges of remote teaching. The goal was to provide students with a screen‑free way to engage with economic concepts by listening to short, story‑based episodes that spark curiosity about each chapter. Rather than delivering detailed instruction, the podcast offers 10‑20 minute audio segments that students can enjoy while walking or taking a break, helping them grasp the essence of the material and stay motivated.
