LSE IQ podcast

Each month, the LSE IQ podcast poses a single, compelling question about the forces shaping our world. Produced by the LSE Film and Audio Team, it draws directly on the rigorous and diverse thought found at the London School of Economics and Political Science. Rather than broad surveys, each episode focuses deeply on one intelligent query, bringing in leading social scientists and specialists to unpack it from multiple angles. You’ll hear nuanced conversations that go beyond headlines, exploring the research and evidence behind issues in economics, politics, and society. The discussions are grounded in academic expertise but designed for anyone curious about how complex systems actually work. Tuning into this podcast means getting a clearer, more thoughtful understanding of the ideas and debates that define our times, all through the lens of cutting-edge social science. It’s a monthly opportunity to engage with serious inquiry, making the often-abstract tangible and relevant.
