Beyond the Business is a narrative podcast about the systems that quietly shape modern business — energy, infrastructure, sustainability, technology, and risk. Each episode deconstructs the economic logic behind today’s transitions, exposing hidden costs, legacy structures, and long-term consequences that rarely appear in boardrooms or reports. It’s about helping business see the system it operates in more clearly. My LinkedIn Page: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alex-byelyavtsev-a702a22a/Alex White Economics

  • S6E1 The Chemistry of Waste
    Jul 7 2026

    Every molecule we make creates value. That is why we make it.

    And every molecule we make leaves a trace. That is what we tend to forget.

    The story of those traces is the story of The Chemistry of Waste.

  • Resilience: The Tsunami Drill
    Jul 3 2026

    New tsunami evacuation signs are appearing along the Portuguese coast. Behind them sits an entire machine: sensors, warning centres, sirens, and a national drill held every November. This episode looks at how that machine actually works, and where it stops working. Why the most dangerous wave would arrive in fifteen minutes, before any siren can help. Why Indonesia's warning system existed on paper and still failed. What a ten-hour blackout revealed about the part of resilience nobody builds. And what the schoolchildren of one Japanese city proved about the difference between having a plan and being ready.

    First episode of Resilience, a new series about what keeps a society standing when the unexpected arrives.
