  • Topics good but way too chatty and questions like "how did it make you feel?" just add nothing to the actual story. Be more specific and be succinct.

  • Too late!

    I’ve been a keen listener of Moneybox for many years and a firm fan of the Apple Podcast format with all my favourite content available in one place.

  • Sadly out of date here

    I used to listen to Moneybox but unfortunately I’ve stopped since the BBC introduced the delay before releasing episodes anywhere except BBC sounds. I don’t want to have to switch between different apps so, sadly, the number of BBC podcasts I listen to has reduced a lot.

    It’s a real shame because I always used to feel that the Radio 4 podcast output alone was worth the licence fee. It’s not, however, worth inconvenience.
