Curator’s notes
In Fast Forward’s more satirical moments, big business, banks and dodgy entrepreneurs are common targets. This regular segment satirises economic rationalism and the politics of turning a blind eye to moral issues in the name of economic growth. The rapid-fire delivery and the self-important callousness of both interviewer and guests are a running gag.
