In this episode I talk about why SALLY'S ECONOMICS (And Larry's and Gareths, and Sarah's and Molly's) are hugely important. And how the bystander effect and authority bias affects how we face talking about this huge issue and joining together to tackle inequality— and how to shape the wealth tax debate. I’m Barry Ferns – a comedian whose personal journey through failure, homelessness, and rebuilding led me to explore the socio and behavioural economics of inequality.This channel digs into how systems of power shape our identity, behaviour, and beliefs, and how we can shift the stories we tell ourselves and each other about poverty, inequality, and who’s to blame.
