Pitchfork Economics with Nick HanauerThe Story That Built Today’s Economy (with George Monbiot and Binyamin Appelbaum)Most people buy the fiction that markets are “natural,” inequality is inevitable, and government should step aside — but where did that idea come from?
In this episode from 2019, Nick and Goldy talk with English journalist George Monbiot and American journalist and author Binyamin Appelbaum about how neoliberalism was deliberately built and sold — not stumbled into.
They unpack how economists, funders, and institutions rewrote the rules to favor markets over people, shifted political norms, and made extreme inequality seem inevitable — and what that history means for reclaiming an economy that works for everyone.

Over the past few decades, from Thatcher and Reagan, to Blair and Clinton, the whole world was incentivized to embrace neoliberal reforms. The result? Our public services are crumbling.
