In this episode of The Sound of Economics, host Rebecca Christie speaks with Bruegel's Simone Tagliapietra and Flora Marchioro about the European Union's pathbreaking carbon trading scheme. Two decades in, what have we learned about capping emissions and using tradeable allowances to rein in pollution from energy-intensive sectors? What are the stakes of this year's review of ETS, which includes electricity and heat generation, industrial manufacturing, domestic aviation and the maritime sector? Why is the EU now creating a second round of ETS 2, covering buildings and road transport, and what are its prospects? Who gets the money from ETS revenues and how is it earmarked? And how is the EU working to prevent carbon leakage and manage its new carbon border adjustment mechanism? This discussion will get you up to speed and ready for what comes next.

Brian Greenway: April Wine In 1977, guitarist Brian Greenway joined April Wine in time for the band's rise to international fame with the 1978 album, “First Glance,” and its classic single, “Roller.” From there, the hits kept coming with radio mainstays “I Like to Rock,” “Sign of the Gypsy Queen,” “Just Between You and Me” and “Enough is Enough,” among others. He joins us from the road where April Wine is supporting fellow Canadian rock legends, Triumph, on a hit-packed North American tour, and kindly indulges us as we ask about the vintage songs (plus an obscure one), the band's legacy and whether or not new music is on the list.

Be honest, how many books have you borrowed purely because the cover looked amazing?  This week on Book Lounge, Joe is joined by Bre for a very honest, slightly chaotic, and deeply relatable conversation about judging books by their covers. Before diving into our recommendations, we get into what Bre loves in a cover design.  We also talk about the covers that live rent-free in for Bre, and how special editions have completely changed the way readers collect (and display) books. Plus, a love-filled detour into The Diviners series and why its design continues to stand out.  Then, we get to recommending books we only read BECAUSE of the cover.  We didn't read the synopsis.  We didn't check reviews.  We saw the cover… and that was enough.  Looking for the video version of our show?

In this episode of The Sound of Economics, host Rebecca Christie talks about sustainable finance with Bruegel's Silvia Merler and Dirk Schoenmaker. How will markets adjust to the European Union's new disclosure framework, watered down by an 'omnibus' simplification package. Is it really simpler? Who is using the new disclosures and how could clearer rules attract more investment? How can the EU manage the creative destruction of transition and minimise the risk of stranded assets? They also discuss how United States asset managers invest and how they cast their governance votes. Should the European Central Bank offer a separate interest rate for finance linked to the energy transition? How do green bonds, sustainability-linked bonds and transition finance work in the market? For sustainable finance to reach its potential, the EU will need to improve its capital markets generally and find ways to make its disclosure framework more practical and internationally viable.Relevant research: Merler, S.

In this special episode of The Sound of Economics, host Rebecca Christie speaks with Bruegel's Zsolt Darvas and Heather Grabbe about the historic Hungarian election of April 2026. Péter Magyar and his TISZA party won in a landslide over the Fidesz party and Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, who has been in power for the past 16 years and changed the course of the European Union. Can Hungary unlock its EU funds and stay within its budget guardrails? What about the energy sector? Will the new government be more transparent about contracts with ties to Chinese and Russian investment? Is Hungary's outlook on Ukraine likely to change? Will Hungary ever join the euro? How will the winners put together a new government to carry out their campaign promises? The discussion covers all this and more after nearly 80% of Hungarian voters went to the polls.  Related research: Darvas, Z.

In this episode of The Sound of Economics, host Rebecca Christie speaks about electric cars with Bruegel's Ugnė Keliauskaitė, Antoine Mathieu Collin and Ben McWilliams. Europe is navigating its transition to green technology while facing energy shocks from the Iran war. How will the automotive sector adapt? Can the European Union make the most of its industrial and trade policy instruments to support industry with minimal protectionism? What do electric vehicle supply chains look like now? Who pays the costs to consumers and industry of making these changes, or funding the related government programmes? Bruegel's clean tech tracker shows what manufacturing is happening in Europe and where the investment is coming from. How are these trends shaping the global auto trade, and what will be Europe's best shot to secure jobs and growth? As the US and China ramp up industrial policy, the EU needs to stay competitive.Relevant research:  Bruegel Dataset (2025) 'European Clean Tech Tracker'. García-Bercero, I., A. Mathieu Collin, B.

In this episode of The Sound of Economics, host Rebecca Christie speaks about the European Union's innovation hopes with Bruegel's Fiona Scott Morton and Reinhilde Veugelers as well as Tobias Tröger, SAFE Chair of Private Law, Trade and Business Law, Jurisprudence at Frankfurt's Goethe University. The European Commission on March 18 released its “EU Inc.” proposal to make it easier for innovative companies to get their start and scale up. The new plan uses a lawmaking tool known as the 28th regime. What is it and how does it work – will it help companies find financing and navigate thickets of national and local bureaucracy? What else can you do with it? Is the Commission proposal good? What are some alternatives? And what will this mean for Europe's notaries? Promising firms have a lot to gain from these conversations, if good policy design follows. Relevant research: Christie, R.

In this episode of The Sound of Economics, host Rebecca Christie speaks with Klaas Knot, former governor of the Dutch central bank, and Bruegel Director Jeromin Zettelmeyer about the big issues facing the European Union economy. Will euro-area inflation rise in response to energy price shocks from the US and Israeli attacks on Iran? How quickly can monetary policy respond when trouble emerges? How is the Dutch economy doing compared to the rest of Europe? Meanwhile, the European Commission has proposed an Industrial Accelerator Act to protect EU manufacturing from the onslaught of Chinese exports – how does it stack up against the status quo? This episode features insights from two of Europe's top economists on the major challenges of 2026 and the role of the European Central Bank in keeping the euro-area economy together.

In this episode of The Sound of Economics, host Rebecca Christie is joined by Bruegel's Elina Ribakova, Simone Tagliapietra and Guntram Wolff to talk about the US and Israeli strikes on Iran. What happens to energy prices as military action intensifies and the Strait of Hormuz is disrupted? If this conflict is a net positive for Russia, what does it mean for the ongoing fighting in Ukraine? How can Europe rally its defence industrial base? How does this complicate trade and political relations with China? Even if oil and gas prices rise only temporarily, this conflict will cause lasting shocks and force a new reckoning with the European Union's energy dependence.Relevant research: Tagliapietra, S.

In this episode of The Sound of Economics, host Rebecca Christie sits down with Bruegel's Pascal Saint-Amans and Roel Dom to talk taxes. What happened to the OECD global minimum tax and the digital services levy debate in the wake of Washington's turn against international agreements? How is the European Union gathering resources for its next budget? What is the difference between a tax and a levy – and why does it matter? Tax policy is social policy, and Bruegel's new EU Tax Observatory project will shine a light on what's going on.Relevant Research: Christie, R.

In this episode of The Sound of Economics, host Rebecca Christie sits down with Bruegel's Mario Mariniello and Bertin Martens to discuss technology regulation in the European Union. Brussels hopes to make its complicated rulebook more fit for purpose with digital “omnibus” plans, intended to streamline and improve oversight. But artificial intelligence, data collection and relations with United States tech giants are tricky subjects that may not be so easily addressed. How should companies manage data? What are the consequences for EU citizens, particularly those from minority language groups? And what kind of innovation can policy encourage in Europe? New technologies move fast, and the EU  will need to balance precaution with experimentation.Related research: Christie, R., Cipollone, P., Hernández de Cos, P.

Fixing gender inequality could reap big gains for the entire economy In this episode of The Sound of Economics, host Rebecca Christie sits down with economist Anna Gifty Opoku-Agyeman and Bruegel's Marie-Sophie Lappe to discuss gender inequality and how economics can help to fix it. The data shows that it costs more to be a woman in society, especially a Black woman, in areas ranging from health care, to pension savings and workplace routines. These extra burdens drag the whole economy down – but this also means that progress towards gender equality can pull the whole economy up. Related research: Christie, R.

As COP30 approaches, what is the real state of EU–China climate relations? In this episode of The Sound of Economics, Yuyun Zhan sits down with Alicia García-Herrero and Cecilia Trasi to explore the state of EU–China climate relations. The discussion explores how both economies share a vision for a green transition but follow strikingly different paths—China prioritising industrial policy and green technology exports, the EU focusing on costly emission pricing and regulation. They also identify pragmatic areas of collaboration like common taxonomies for green finance or joint circular-economy initiatives. They also reflect on whether either side can lead the global climate agenda in a fragmented geopolitical landscape. Relevant research Trasi, C.

What would you do if Jesus showed up unannounced in your living room? That's exactly what happened to the disciples in Luke 24. In this powerful episode titled A Ghost at First Glance, Stephen unpacks Jesus' stunning post-resurrection appearance to His fearful followers—and His tender response to their disbelief. Instead of rebuking their failure, Jesus extends peace. Instead of demanding faith, He offers proof. He shows His hands and feet. He eats a meal. He invites them to touch and see. He meets Thomas' doubts with compassion and patience. In every detail, Jesus reveals not only that He's alive—but that He's full of grace. This episode explores the physical reality of Jesus' glorified body and what that means for our future in heaven. You'll also get a fresh perspective on “Doubting Thomas”—a man who wasn't weak in faith, but honest in his questions. Whether you feel strong in faith or stuck in fear, this message will remind you that Jesus doesn't choose perfect people. He chooses teachable ones—and He never fails those who trust Him. Don't miss this encouraging look at the grace, patience, and power of the risen Christ. Your future is secure, not because you've never failed Him—but because He will never fail you.

In this episode of The Sound of Economics, we look at what came out of the May 19 EU-UK summit. Host Rebecca Christie speaks with Bruegel's Ignacio García Bercero and Heather Grabbe about the shift in post-Brexit ties between the two trading partners, what needs to be negotiated next, and how this relates to contentious transatlantic trade relations. U.S. President Donald Trump's threat of big tariffs against the EU contrasts with the cooperative approach of the London talks, which laid out a path forward in key areas like energy, fishing, youth mobility, emissions trading schemes, and animal and plant health standards.

In this episode of the Sound of Economics, we look at how Europe can attract and keep top-tier scientific researchers, especially given US political turmoil and the Trump administration's conflicts with higher education. Host Rebecca Christie speaks with Bruegel's Reinhilde Veugelers and Mario Mariniello, joined by Daniel Gros of the Institute for European Policymaking at Bocconi University, to discuss how the academic world is changing and what European authorities can do about it. Short-term funding incentives to attract scientists will help. But success requires long-term commitment to a research-friendly environment, such as the proposed Project Einstein initiative, to encourage top talent to put down roots.

Being a scientist is fun: you conduct new experiments every day (some of them are totally crazy!). And all these experiments can prove incredible facts, and we chose those we considered the most amazing and unbelievable. TIMESTAMPS ‘Pinky promise' means 'If I break the vow, I'll cut off my finger' 0:39 Jupiter and Saturn have diamond rains 1:14 There are more than 1.6 million ants per person on Earth 1:53 There are more artificial flamingos than live ones 2:16 The strawberry is not a berry 2:46 Bananas, though, are berries 3:10 There is a hollow 100-foot worm living in the ocean 3:35 Mithridates VI was immune to poisons 4:06 If we lived in darkness, we would be able to stay up for 36 hours 4:33 Our foot is as long as our forearm 5:17 Neil Armstrong's space suit was made at a bra factory 5:43 "Gadget" was one of the first three atomic bombs 6:05 Ann Hodges is the only person to survive a meteorite strike 6:33 Koalas have a unique fingerprint pattern 7:09 The surface area of Russia is bigger than that of Pluto 7:36 What if a monkey recognizes itself in the mirror 8:00 Dolphins can talk on the phone 8:33 Oxford University is older than the Aztec Empire 9:07 You can survive a shark attack by staying still 9:29 SUMMARY - When making a promise, children link their little fingers and say a certain vow, different in every culture. In fact, during the Edo period, bandit clans had a ritual of cutting off their right little fingers to prove their loyalty. - Myrmecologists worldwide made an estimate that 1 to 10 quadrillion ants are living on Earth now. That means there are more than 1 million of these insects for each human! - There are several times more plastic flamingos worldwide than there are live ones. The latter are counted at 2 to 3 million, while the number of their plastic counterparts reaches almost 1 billion. - As a matter of fact, the "berry" of the strawberry isn't at all its fruit. It's just an overgrown receptacle that carries the pure fruit on it. - The banana plant is, in fact, giant grass, and bananas are its berries. According to the definition, a berry is a "soft and juicy fruit containing several seeds." - A pyrosome looks like a giant transparent and hollow worm, but it, in fact, consists of thousands of organisms that glow in the dark and replicate themselves. - Mithridates VI of Pontus had been taking small doses of various poisons since childhood to work up an immunity to them. During the riot, the Romans wanted to take him hostage, and Mithridates tried to poison himself but couldn't because of his training. - Our thumb is as long as our nose, and our lips are as long as our index fingers. - Few know that the space suit of the first man on the Moon was made at a factory which produced bras and lingerie in Dover, DE. Well, we just hope Neil felt comfortable in it. - Russia's surface area is 17,098,246 sq. km., and Pluto's surface area is 16,650,000 sq. km. - Every dolphin has its signal name that appears in adolescence and is kept their whole life. It's known that dolphins can tell their relatives' signals from all the rest. - The first students came to Oxford in 1096, while the Aztec city-state of Tenochtitlan was founded in 1325. That means the university is 200 years older. - Keep an eye on the shark: when it has passed by you, try to find a way out of the water. However, if you can't and have to defend yourself, hit it on its gills, eyes, or the tip of its nose. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our Social Media: Facebook:   / brightside   Instagram:   / brightgram   5-Minute Crafts Youtube: https://www.goo.gl/8JVmuC  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For more videos and articles visit: http://www.brightside.me/ Learn more about your ad choices.

The Packers have made their decision at defensive coordinator and hired Jeff Hafley to run this defense, but who is Jeff Hafley? We talk about that in today's episode, and just because we don't know him doesn't mean he's the wrong choice, and I would argue he might be the perfect choice based on everything we hear today.
