It's called The Story of Money, and the first episode is out today.

I'm joined now by Story of Money co-host Robin Wigglesworth to hear more about it.

Hi, Robin.

Hi, Mark.

How are you?

I'm doing well.

So you're co-hosting this with our colleague, Jillian Tett.

Why do you think now is the time to be doing a show about financial history?

Well, you said there are things from thousands of years ago that can be applied to today.

What's an example of that?

That is really cool.

Are there other themes that keep popping up that you've noticed as you've put together the show?

Robin, what's the one thing that you hope listeners are going to get out of the show?

Maybe your kids will be more inspired to learn about it now that you host this podcast.

That's the FT's Robin Wigglesworth.

He hosts the new podcast, The Story of Money with our colleague, Jillian Tett.

The first episode is out today and you can hear new episodes every Wednesday.

We'll put a link to subscribe in the show notes and we'll have a trailer that you can listen to after this episode of The Briefing.

Thanks, Robin.

Thanks for having me on.
