  • Ok but

    Generally useful. Sometimes too basic. Biggest problem is Hannah’s speech cadence is really not suited to podcast. Her interview questions are far from intelligent. The questions to her colleague in this week’s episode were so banal, it confused him. AJ Bell need to get someone more engaging, with a voice delivery suited to podcast.

  • Average

    Content average but presentation is bad. Hannah should not be in broadcasting or get elocution lessons and Dan stop using ‘you know’ and ‘sort of’ all the time as it’s irritating.

  • Waffle

    Just appalling bad. The hosts understand very little about finances and know almost nothing about investing. Many of their guests, particularly those from wealth managers, are absolute novices who state only the most basic facts. Finally, both hosts and guests just waffle on endlessly repeating themselves. So ten minutes of information’ becomes a one hour podcast.

  • Hit & Miss

    As others have commented, depends who’s on. Hannah needs to regulate her voice instead of speaking normal then ultra-quiet in the same sentence.

    Keeps promising more coverage of individual companies but these remain sparse.

    I do enjoy the wide range of topics on offer though.

  • Good, but

    This is good when Dan or Tom is in the chair, but I’m really not interested in Danni & Charlene’s kids and personal life.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Deep Dive #10 What UK investors must know before investing overseas
Q: What are the key differences between trackers and ETFs, and what should investors look for when comparing them?
ETFs trade like stocks and can be bought and sold throughout the day, while funds trade at a single price; trackers (UK UCITS funds) may be weighted by market cap and can have different charge structures; investors should compare index coverage, country allocation, fees, and whether the ETF uses synthetic structures or currency hedging to avoid surprises.
Investment Trust Show: How trusts stack up against fund siblings
Q: What is the fundamental difference between an investment trust board and an open-ended fund board?
The trust board is responsible for accountability to shareholders, sets strategy, and oversees service providers, including the manager, auditors, and custodians, whereas the open-ended fund board focuses more on daily fund operations and accepting or redeeming investors.
The £131m cost of the M&S cyber attack
Q: Danni, first on inflation, what's behind the fall? Did we get any surprises in this data?
Danni explains that the fall was flagged due to a comparison with last April and the energy price cap decline, with broader details about holiday prices and energy-related components, suggesting the change is nuanced rather than dramatic.
The scary link between politics, oil and your bills
Q: Dragon's Den has been a big part of your background; what did you find interesting about the pitches discussed in this segment?
They review notable pitches, such as Tangle Teaser and Pasta Evangelists, and reflect on how valuations and outcomes can diverge—some successes like Perfect Ted show strong growth, while others like BrewDog illustrate boom-and-bust cycles—highlighting the unpredictability of startup investments.
The scary link between politics, oil and your bills
Q: The interest rate switch is quite alarming, isn't it? And what other implications on personal finances does that have?
Charlene explains that higher gilt yields feed into mortgage pricing and loan costs, potentially pushing up rates and affecting savers who shift toward cash while borrowers face higher borrowing costs; it also means central banks may keep rates higher for longer, influencing long-term financial planning.
