WEBVTT - A Message For Benchmark Listeners

0:00:00.160 --> 0:00:04.359
<v Speaker 1>Hello, I'm Stephanie Flanders, Senior executive editor for Economics at Bloomberg.

0:00:05.040 --> 0:00:07.760
<v Speaker 1>For those of you waiting for the Benchmark podcast to return,

0:00:08.240 --> 0:00:10.920
<v Speaker 1>I've got good news and bad news. The bad news

0:00:11.000 --> 0:00:14.520
<v Speaker 1>is that Benchmark isn't actually coming back. The good news

0:00:14.640 --> 0:00:18.040
<v Speaker 1>is that it's being transformed, as I speak, into a

0:00:18.079 --> 0:00:21.560
<v Speaker 1>great new podcast called Stephanomics that we're pretty sure you're

0:00:21.600 --> 0:00:24.239
<v Speaker 1>going to like. Why are we so confident, Well, one

0:00:24.280 --> 0:00:26.200
<v Speaker 1>reason is that some of the key people who brought

0:00:26.239 --> 0:00:30.360
<v Speaker 1>you Benchmark are also closely involved in creating Stephanomics. The

0:00:30.400 --> 0:00:32.920
<v Speaker 1>other reason is that Stephanomics is going to be talking

0:00:32.920 --> 0:00:36.680
<v Speaker 1>to world class experts and Bloomberg's own analysts and journalists

0:00:36.880 --> 0:00:39.879
<v Speaker 1>about all the same questions about the economy and economic

0:00:39.920 --> 0:00:43.480
<v Speaker 1>policy that Benchmark was always interested in. Only now we're

0:00:43.479 --> 0:00:47.000
<v Speaker 1>going global and we're bringing these issues to life with

0:00:47.159 --> 0:00:49.880
<v Speaker 1>on the ground reports from some of Bloomberg's a hundred

0:00:49.960 --> 0:00:53.680
<v Speaker 1>plus economic journalists around the world. So watch this space

0:00:53.720 --> 0:00:56.280
<v Speaker 1>for Stephanomics. We think you're going to like it.
