Pub quiz showdown: Alphaville vs Unhedged

Today on the show, host Katie Martin pits two teams against one another in a historic finance trivia showdown, complete with trash talk, ridiculously hard questions, and strongly-worded protests. In one corner, the cerebral duo behind the FT’s Alphaville newsletter, Alexandra Scaggs and Robin Wigglesworth. In the other, the brains behind the FT’s Unhedged newsletter, our own Robert Armstrong and Ethan Wu. An epic clash like this will not be seen again in our lifetimes, or at least not until another slow news week.  For a free 30-day trial to the Unhedged newsletter go to: <a href="https://www.ft.com/unhedgedoffer" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.ft.com/unhedgedoffer</a>Follow Ethan Wu (<a href="https://twitter.com/ethanywu" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ethanywu</a>) and Katie Martin (<a href="https://twitter.com/katie_martin_fx" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@katie_martin_fx</a>) on X, formerly Twitter.
