Choose any podcast related to macroeconomics, then choose a specific current episode of that podcast that is different from your earlier choices. Your reference will be the name of, and link to, your chosen podcast.

As you listen to your chosen podcast, pay particular attention to any discussion relating to long-run economic growth. After listening to the podcast, answer the following questions:

What important new things did you learn?
How did this new knowledge relate to macroeconomic measures, especially the long-run economic growth being explored in this unit, and how does it impact the entire economy?
What action, if any, do you think the government, or society, should take as a result of what you have learned?
Examples of acceptable economic oriented podcasts include:

NPR’s Marketplace series (some daily and some weekly);
NPR’s Planet Money;
Weekly Economics Podcast;
Bloomberg’s Stephanomics; and,
The New Foundation’s Weekly Economics, to name just a few.
If you are unfamiliar with podcasts, search for economic podcasts, using any of the above options, or just search for economics podcasts. It is also acceptable to use TED talks that center on economic issues.
