# Euro Matters – the European Central Bank Podcast A podcast by European Central Bank. This is Euro Matters – the podcast where we unpack the stories, ideas and decisions shaping Europe’s economy. We bring you fresh perspectives from the people at the heart of it all – from economists and policymakers to researchers and innovators – and answer the questions that truly matter to you. Our hosts, Paul Gordon, Stefania Secola and Catherine Steer dive into the latest developments across the euro area, breaking down complex topics in a clear and accessible way. New episodes drop every first and third Tuesday of each month. Please note: the views expressed are those of the speakers and not necessarily those of the European Central Bank.
