  • How to get a good job that's in demand... and AI won't steal
    Oct 3 2025
    Britain's weather is famous for its ability to go from stunning to downright miserable in the blink of an eye. The nation's jobs market has a habit of doing the same.
    Not so long ago, workers finally had the upper hand and were celebrating a post-Covid jobs boom, where almost all roles were in-demand and some decent salary rises could be negotiated.
    Now, the chat down the pub is more likely to be about redundancies, recruitment freezes and endless rejections that can end with someone accepting a lower salary and position just to get a job.
    It will almost certainly swiftly also turn to artificial intelligence and its threat to employment, particularly the white collar kind.
    But can you AI-proof a career, are the machines really coming for our jobs and what are the roles that are in hot demand at the moment?
    On this podcast, Georgie Frost, Lee Boyce and Simon Lambert dive into the employment market and look at the list of the 30 most in-demand roles to see what they can uncover.
    Plus, is Rachel Reeves being irresponsible in allowing another pension tax-free lump sum rush to occur, if she isn't going to stage a Budget raid?
    Why is Lee not happy about his football club and cash?
    What did the team discover after a shout out to listeners to tell them about mystery flight delays?
    And finally, if you don't get unlimited Yorkshire puddings with a pub roast, can you really go to Trading Standards?

  • What is revenge saving and could it help you build up a pot of cash?
    Sep 26 2025
    It's the latest social media craze, allegedly... revenge saving. But what on earth is it and can it really encourage people to get into the savings habit?

    This week, Lee Boyce, Simon Lambert and Georgie Frost dive into the world of revenge saving.

    And while this new buzz-term does the rounds, we have a stab at making our version - the mind-trick savings method.

    We discuss why you shouldn't get hung up on saving large amounts, chasing high interest rates and to visualise money like a snowball going downhill.

    Meanwhile, we look at the little known government savings account that has seen £220m in bonus payments – could you benefit from opening one?

    A current account with a 6 per cent savings rate but it’ll set you back a whopping £17 a month - can it really be worth it?

    HMRC can now take money DIRECT from your bank account or Isa if you haven't paid taxes and Steve Webb answers a reader question: why can't I get my state pension on my 66th birthday?

  • Bonus episode: The big questions people are asking on pensions and inheritance tax - and the answers
    Sep 25 2025
    Pensions and inheritance are at the forefront of many people's minds ahead of the Budget.

    In her last Budget, Rachel Reeves announced she will pull pension pots into the inheritance tax net from April 2027. Meanwhile, there are concerns that pension tax-free lump sums and inheritance tax allowances could fall victim to another raid as the Chancellor tries to balance the books again.

    On this special episode of the This is Money Podcast, Simon Lambert is joined by Lisa Caplan, director of Charles Stanley Direct Advice and Guidance, a regular guest in our weekly Investing Explained feature.

    Lisa spends her days helping customers understand how to protect their wealth, make their pension last in retirement, and importantly enjoy their hard-earned money.

    She discusses with Simon the questions people are asking right now about pensions and inheritance tax - and the answers she gives.
