"I love you don’t prepare too much for the questions you cover, it makes your exploration, from the starting point, the same as the listeners. I don’t want you guys to be the go to experts, more the go to relatable explorers.

My question is, Belgium philosopher Ingrid Robeyns coined the phrase ‘Limitarianism’. She argues there should be an upper limit to the amount of income and wealth a person can amass, just as there’s a line of poverty we recognise no-one should fall below. We should recognise both a poverty and riches line. Surplus money enables too much power to be exerted over others, and over earth's resources. We can just aim for continued growth, but equally, for more people to increase their wellbeing going forward and flourish, we can no longer afford the super rich. Super rich exist, because others are poor. Growth has drawn people out of poverty, but unchecked, can put people back into poverty. The super rich and rich are likely to be the last affected by climate breakdown, if it comes. The poor are more likely to be affected more and suffer worse.

Please explore this in your usual unprepared style, and speak your truths, as you see them, at this point. Thanks".

Stuart and William were once again able to record face to face, which leads to a very real, and intimate conversation as they discuss, examine, and delve into a question from long time listener Rory in Darwin, Australia.
