Cautionary Tales: The Angels, the Stones, and the Dead: timharford.com/2025/07/cauti…
Pascal Wyse retweeted
It's a joy to each new episode of #CautionaryTalesPod because @PascalWyse has invariably transformed what might sound like a dry monologue into a punchy, powerful and sometimes very funny piece of drama.
Pascal Wyse retweeted
Pascal has been with Cautionary Tales from the very start. I vividly recall sitting down with him to discuss the way we wanted the show to sound - for instance, that beepy nerdy music that plays when I lanch into some description of social science.
Pascal Wyse retweeted
Even more vivid, I remember when he sent over that incomparable theme tune - strange, evocative, creepy and spellbinding. What a pleasure to be able to work with him.
AND NOW BIG NEWS...

Pascal has been nominated for a Webby award for his music and sound design. He fully deserves it. He also deserves to win, so please consider showing your appreciation by giving him your vote (and sharing this thread).

Let's hope prospective new government heeds this powerful advocacy for changing the national curriculum. More creativity and love of reading and writing! PS thanks for the mention of the forthcoming Wyse and Hacking book.

The latest #CautionaryTalesPod is all about how Chicago thought it was outsourcing its parking meters - but contrived to, in effect, sell control of the streets themselves. Amazing tale based on @HenryGrabar 's reporting in "Paved Paradise": timharford.com/2023/09/cauti…
