    The Rich Think You're Jealous. The Science Says You're Not - Barry's Economics

    Do poor people hate rich people?It’s an idea we hear all the time, but what happens when you actually test it?This video looks at what decades of research into fairness, inequality, wealth and social class can tell us about where resentment really comes from, why rich and poor people can see the same world so differently, and what happens when some voices are much easier to hear than others.The evidence points somewhere rather more complicated than “envy”.I’m Barry, a comedian whose personal journey through failure, homelessness, and rebuilding led me to explore the socio and behavioural economics of inequality.No sponsors, ever.... this channel is funded by viewers:▶ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/barryseconomics▶ Buy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/barryseconomicshttps://paypal.me/barryseconomicsVideo Written and Performed By Barry FernsEdited By Barry Ferns and Becky Goodman @beckygoodtimes  This channel digs into how systems of power shape our identity, behaviour, and beliefs, and how we can shift the stories we tell ourselves and each other about poverty, inequality, and who’s to blame.How to Support Barry’s EconomicsHelp us stay independent and keep making videos like this.https://www.buymeacoffee.com/barryseconomicshttps://ko-fi.com/barryseconomicshttps://paypal.me/barryseconomicshttps://www.patreon.com/barryseconomicsFollow & Leave A Revew If You Enjoyed the EpisodeMore about me: https://barryferns.co.uk/Mailing List Sign-up: https://tr.ee/0BKMVwYou can also follow me on Tiktok: tiktok.com/@barryseconomicsInstagram: instagram.com/barryseconomicsTwitter: twitter.com/barryseconomicsSubstack: https://substack.com/@barryseconomicsBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/barryseconomics.bsky.socialReddit: https://www.reddit.com/user/barryferns/If you’re new to this, check out Gary's Economics first as his channel gives the structural and financial perspective.

    Your Actions Ripple Further Than You Think - Barry's Economics

    One of the most powerful beliefs in modern politics isn't a policy.It's the belief that nothing can change.You hear it everywhere and I feel it too. Most of us do. But the strange thing is that when researchers study how change actually happens, they keep finding the opposite. Social change rarely arrives because everybody suddenly agrees.It often begins with surprisingly small groups of people connected in the right ways, reaching a tipping point that makes what seemed impossible suddenly feel inevitable.This video explores the science of social contagion, network theory, tipping points and collective action.Not as a motivational slogan but as evidence.Because throughout history, some of the biggest shifts in politics, economics and culture looked impossible right up until the moment they happened.Sources ReferencedJames H.

    Steven Bartlett replied to my clip about Diary of a CEO. At half past midnight. Edited.Do you know Steven Bartlett? Not know of him. Know him?Most of us feel like we do. We know his voice, the lean-forward, the frown before he disagrees. And we've never met him.

    Voldemort Is Not The Problem - Barry's Economics

    What if Voldemort isn't actually the main villain of Harry Potter? What if he's a symptom rather than the actual problem - a symptom of something truly sinister (I'm not saying that Voldemort isn't sinister btw)This week's video draws on research into how radicalisation develops across the world, alongside Daron Acemoglu and James Robinson's research on Why Nations Fail. And maybe rather than focussing on destroying these individual monsters, there is another routeI’m Barry Ferns, a comedian whose personal journey through failure, homelessness, and rebuilding led me to explore the socio and behavioural economics of inequality.This video wouldn't be as amazing as it is without the help of my CGI and musically talented friend, Charlie Parkin.Find him on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mp3charlie/No sponsors, ever.... this channel is funded by viewers:▶ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/barryseconomics▶ Buy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/barryseconomicshttps://paypal.me/barryseconomicsThis channel digs into how systems of power shape our identity, behaviour, and beliefs, and how we can shift the stories we tell ourselves and each other about poverty, inequality, and who’s to blame.How to Support Barry’s EconomicsHelp us stay independent and keep making videos like this.https://www.buymeacoffee.com/barryseconomicshttps://ko-fi.com/barryseconomicshttps://paypal.me/barryseconomicshttps://www.patreon.com/barryseconomicsFollow and leave a review if you enjoyed the episode!More about me: https://barryferns.co.uk/Mailing List Sign-up: https://tr.ee/0BKMVwYou can also follow me on Tiktok: tiktok.com/@barryseconomicsInstagram: instagram.com/barryseconomicsTwitter: twitter.com/barryseconomicsSubstack: https://substack.com/@barryseconomicsBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/barryseconomics.bsky.socialReddit: https://www.reddit.com/user/barryferns/If you’re new to this, check out Gary's Economics first as his channel gives the structural and financial perspective.

    The Dark Side of Meritocracy: Why 'Hustling' is a Trap - Barry's Economics

    Life's a Meritocracy, right?We like to think meritocracy rewards the people who are most talented, driven and capable.But what happens when the very things you're told will help you get ahead can actually work against you?In this second part of the meritocracy series, I look at the "hustle penalty" and the hidden costs of how you present yourself when you're trying to move up.Sometimes the harder you try to look like you belong, the more obvious it becomes that you don't.I’m Barry, a comedian whose personal journey through failure, homelessness, and rebuilding led me to explore the socio and behavioural economics of inequality.Luisa is currently developing a show about Mary Magdalene and how different the world would look if the Bible was translated by women?
