The Monocle Weekly

Monocle's Washington correspondent Sasha Issenberg joins the team in London to discuss how Europe's finest train networks are inspiring plans for high-speed rail links in the US. The team also discuss the rise of brand Spain with Madrid-based CEO of Saffron Consultants, Jacob Benbunan, and Monocle's luxury goods analyst Sagra Maceira de Rosen. Rob Bound and Andrew Tuck are on hand with plenty of culture and comment and they hear news from Palma de Mallorca where the new Monocle shop has just opened.

About the Monocle Weekly

The Monocle Weekly is a mix of smart discussion, previews, field reports and feature interviews. From our studio in London and our bureaux in Tokyo and New York, Monocle's editors focus on the horizon and explore the looming stories within the five areas that define our editorial agenda: global affairs, business, culture, design and consumer culture.

Hosted by editor in chief Tyler Brûlé, The Monocle Weekly also offers fresh angles on stories in the current issue and delivers in-depth follow-ups from past assignments. Culture editor Robert Bound is a regular with his weekly playlist of artists established and obscure.

Editor Andrew Tuck pulls in contributions from our correspondents in far flung corners and moderates debates. And from Tokyo and New York editors Fiona Wilson and Ann Marie Gardner deliver features and perspectives from Asia and the Americas.
