Episode 3

A new series looking at the world of work from stand-up comedian Andrew Maxwell. This week Andrew considers the status of different jobs.

Since the COVID-19 pandemic, we have started to reflect more on our working lives and increasingly question the relative value of different occupations around the UK. Andrew Maxwell investigates why until now we have traditionally valued some jobs above others and what a new understanding of “work” might mean for how we approach our changing world.

This week Andrew considers the status of different jobs and his guest is the political economist, Mark Blyth.
