Tyler Brûlé anchors this week's show from Palma de Mallorca and talks to Jeff Rubin, economist and author, who reveals how our world is about to get a whole lot smaller and why the price of oil has everything to do with it. Editor Andrew Tuck and culture editor Robert Bound are in the London studio to reveal the top 25 cities in Monocle's annual quality-of-life survey, and shoe industry expert Toni Muran joins Tyler in the Palma studio to talk about the decline of shoe-making in the Balearic Islands.

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.
