Ready player one: Kelly Clancy on how games have influenced society

From poker to Playstations, people love games. In recent years, “gamification” has become big business as tech companies have tapped into gameplay as a way to make their products more compelling. Dating apps, ride-hailing services and social media, to name just a few, have all deployed the techniques of games to keep us hooked. Games have influenced how our brains have developed and they’ve also intruded into many unexpected aspects of our lives. In this episode, we learn how games have changed the course of history and how they’re already starting to shape our future. The Economist’s Tom Standage interviews Kelly Clancy, a neuroscientist, physicist and the author of “Playing With Reality”. Alok Jha, The Economist’s science and technology editor, hosts.

Teen troubles: China’s disciplinary centres for “deviant” youth

Hefei is an inland city only a few hours by train from Shanghai. But while teenagers in the coastal megacity attend voguing parties and young men wear makeup to work, growing up in conservative Hefei is different. Failing to conform to your parents’ expectations of what it means to be a good child can lead to trouble. In Zhang Enxu’s case, that meant years of beatings and, when those didn’t work, being sent to a disciplinary centre to be “fixed”. These private, often expensive, centres are a final resort for parents. Their admission criteria are wide: anything from performing poorly at school to having a different sexual orientation. And life on the inside can be brutal. Alice Su, The Economist’s senior China correspondent, and Don Weinland, our China business and finance editor, meet Zhang and find out what happens when young Chinese challenge the social conservatism of their parents.

The Weekend Intelligence: Ibiza: When the party’s over

Everyone knows Ibiza for its all-night parties, packed dance floors and thumping music. The island’s iconic nightlife brings in millions of tourists each summer. But what happens when those parties end? When the hoards go home… The Economist’s Carla Subirana has grown up spending summers in her family’s house in Ibiza. This time she travels to the island in November to speak to those who live there in the shadow of the parties.

Assisted dying: why Britain should back a change

Should people have the right to choose how they die? Though many Britons support the principle, a vote on assisted dying in the House of Commons may fail. Donald Trump reshaped the Supreme Court in his first term. His second act could be just as dramatic (09:30). And remembering figurative painter Frank Auerbach (18:10).

Fix the simple mistakes please

I mostly like this podcast and range of issues it covers, but I wish they would correct the audio when someone misspeaks. One of your correspondents said Japan and South Korea are “allies” - which is news to me and every other Japanese or Korean person. It’s such an easy fix, can’t imagine why you’d leave that in there.
Endless “special offers”

The Economist podcast paywall concept seems to be in disarray. The podcast is increasingly blighted with relentless appeals to join up with ever increasing discounts as the months roll by—when will this charade end?

I am so glad to listen to professional journalism! It’s not the hate Trump crew or love Trump crew. Just NEWS analysis. Please don’t become CNN or FOX.
One sided

Sometimes feel like too much BS on international things especially China and Russia. Very one sided narrative, British-American view on the things in the world. Podcast’s soundtrack is nice though, 5 stars.
