The Rest Is Money: Live
Witness the debut live show of The Rest Is Money, Robert Peston and Steph McGovern’s popular business and economics podcast.
Journalists Robert Peston and Steph McGovern take the audience on a journey, starting from the credit crunch in 2008 and going right through to Trump’s tariffs in 2025 – and their first-hand experience of reporting on both.
They also chat about their biggest interviews with tech billionaires, chancellors and some of the most divisive people in politics.
Is the AI bubble about to burst? Are the UK’s finances in an unfixable debt spiral? What’s Rachel Reeves actually like? The UK’s favourite business and economics podcast breaks down the mechanics behind every aspect of society in their debut live show.
