Together with host Esther van Rijswijk and a wide variety of guests, Bas Jacobs analyses the economic plans of all political parties. This way, voters can make a more informed choice - without having to dig through all the plans of political parties.
Each Tuesday a new episode is released. All episodes are in Dutch and are available on the website of BNR Nieuwsradio and all the podcast apps. The podcast is powered by BNR Nieuwsradio, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, ESB and het Instituut voor Publieke Economie.
