The Productivity Podcast with Fexingo: Output, Efficiency, and Long-Term Economic Growth
For two centuries, productivity growth has been the engine of rising living standards, yet the past decade has seen a perplexing slowdown. In this show, Lucas and Luna examine the forces that drive — and inhibit — long-term economic output. Each episode focuses on a specific lever: from R&D investment and education reform to infrastructure spending and the diffusion of digital technologies. They avoid political rhetoric, instead grounding every discussion in historical data and named case studies — Japan's lost decade, Germany's Mittelstand, the post-2000 US productivity boom. Lucas, with his...

Lucas and Luna dig into the real economics of the four-day workweek. Iceland's massive pilot program with 2,500 workers showed productivity held or improved across daycare, social services, and hospitals.

The Solow Paradox Is Back with AI 21.05.2026 8:55
In the late 1980s, economist Robert Solow observed, 'You can see the computer age everywhere but in the productivity statistics.' That became known as the Solow Paradox.

In the inaugural episode of The Productivity Podcast, hosts Lucas and Luna dive into a single, defining moment in economic history: the 1995-2005 productivity boom driven by corporate IT investment. They zero in on one company—Walmart—and one specific decision: the $500 million investment in its retail-link supply chain system in the early 1990s. Lucas explains how that bet reshaped not just Walma...
