We're turning the airwaves blue on this week's Business podcast as Aditya Chakrabortty's joined by a top panel to discuss the Conservative party conference and the Tories' economic policy.

Heather Stewart and our man in Manchester Dan Roberts analyse George Osborne's plans to cut the deficit and fund a national recovery. Is the would-be Conservative chancellor up to the challenge?

Away from politics, Richard Wachman and Deborah Hargreaves discuss the state of British retail after supermarket giant Tesco reported profits of £1.57bn. Should we be celebrating Tesco as a beacon of British enterprise?

Have a listen, and tell us what you think.
