About this episode

Dominic Frisby discusses the historical significance of gold and the implications of moving away from it as a form of currency.

Gold is at the center of world history: in our myths and legends, in how we represent esteem and accomplishment, and even in our turns of phrase. Dominic Frisby discusses the connection between gold and civilization, and the human cost of abandoning gold as money.
