If you enjoy this, watch this episode next:    • EconPop - The Economics of The Shawsh...  

In this episode of EconPop, Andrew discusses Cast Away, Robert Zemeckis' modern re-telling of Robinson Crusoe. Subjects include specialization, Leonard Read, and daiquiris.

EconPop is the YouTube series that sifts through the haystack of popular culture to find the needle of economics within... and then stabs you with it!

Starring comedian Andrew Heaton, EconPop takes a surprisingly deep look at the economic themes running through classic films, new releases, tv shows and more from the best of pop culture and entertainment. Heaton brings a unique mix of dry wit and whimsy to bear on the dismal science of economics and the result is always entertaining, educational and irreverent. It's Econ 101 meets At The Movies, with a dash of Monty Python.
