Welcome to our podcast "The New...". 

In this series of conversations with thought leaders, we cover many topics related to new mobility, architecture and the consumer economy with particular emphasis on the psychological aspects of why things are the way they are.

Episodes 1a and 1b | The New... Land Value
What determines the price of a house? Of a neighbourhood? Of a city? Who should pay for transport upgrades to an area? The local council or the central Government? Is there a better way to finance largescale projects?


Episodes 2a and 2b | The New... Finance: the Transit Exchange
When you monetise the road spectrum you suddenly have real trillions to spend.
What new financing options best serve a low carbon, sustainable future for our roads and transit systems? Can any of these ideas be exported to help the UK transition to a more sustainable future, without impoverishing others? How do automakers - a major source of employment for so many countries, navigate this new reality?

Episodes 3a and 3b | The New... Mobility
The Paradox of Liveable Cities - Pedestrianised but with Access
How can City and Regional mayors get congestion pricing implemented? Is the Central Business District (CBD) an outdated concept in very large cities? How do we keep people moving without imprisoning them? Why adding more cars and more roads has historically reduced mobility.

Episodes 4a and 4b | The New... Architecture
Architecture and Urban Planning as a form of mobility design
What type of design would the streetscape of a new city take today, based on a congestion priced road network? Would it be superblocks as in Barcelona? Wide boulevards or very narrow streets? What did the Soviets get right with their point-to-point designs? Let us compare new cities being built (Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic) and adapted newer cities.

Episodes 5a and 5b | The New... Experiential Economy
Financing big events like concerts and sports fixtures with a transit exchange
People are increasingly drawn to paying for experiences, not so much physical things. Liverpool has long been known as a giant party city, even through some very challenging times over five decades. Can an 800 year old city with an industrial and seafaring past provides any pointers for the new reality of the new economy whose birth we are witnessing?

Episodes 6a and 6b | The New... DOTCOMs, SPACS, Initial Coin Offerings


Episodes 7a and 7b | The New... Mortgage
Location , GeoLocation, CoLocation! What new models of Housing Ownership are there when access is 80% everything
