Description

Tareque Laskar aka the Econormist joins Tony, Srinath, Chops and Murali to chat about his unique storytelling style using sport (and pop culture) to explain economics. The gang get meta about early Twitter's impact on building strong, like-minded communities among sports fans, playing club cricket in England and Europe filled with plenty of tea, scones and biryani. As always, there's a wrap-up of the week's action, from the SKY fall in Rajkot to the skyfall in the dusk twilight in Karachi.
