About IONA Asks Educational Podcast

At IONA Asks, we answer everyday questions with an Economics twist. Do the benefits of treating yourself to a pizza outweigh the costs? What are the current trends in economics research? What is the "opportunity cost" of napping? Our podcast teams and guests have ideas and answers! IONA Asks features discussions about four themes: (1) news & events, (2) career prospects & alumni experiences, (3) professors & their research, and (4) educational economics in our daily lives — all in relationship to economics, social justice, politics, international development, and more in our global society.
