1:00 Fintech and regulation—a primer.
02:30 Are sandboxes there to help fintechs, or to protect against them?
04:00 Miya and James examine whether it’s actually incumbent tech providers who might need more scrutiny.

09:00 But what happens to London?
11:00 The guys try—and largely fail—to tackle the age-old question of whether German purity laws or American innovation produces better beer.
12:00 Miya and James wrap it up with the now-weekly post-mortem on this week’s Game of Thrones episode.
