The Story of Money Podcast | Financial Times

They say money makes the world go round. But was it always this way? And how did we get to this point anyway?

Find out on The Story of Money from the Financial Times, with Gillian Tett and Robin Wigglesworth. Each week, they revisit the moments when money shaped history.

From ancient rulers wiping out debts to 19th-century frontier America where banking blurred into banditry, financial history has a habit of coming back around. So whether it’s today’s AI investment boom or the next market crash, chances are we’ve seen something like it before. And those who don’t know their financial past won’t just repeat it — they could lose money too.

Subscribe for free to The Story of Money from the FT— a history show for finance geeks, and a finance show for history buffs. And if you’re neither, Gillian and Robin might just make you both.
