Private Equity: The Secret Side of Investing and What it Means for You

Wednesday, February 4, 2026 • Duration 15:44

Private assets - big money moves, and investing off the stock market.

Mik tries to explain how companies can buy other companies for a living which sounds fake at first, but is in fact a real job. Think less dragons and castles, more spreadsheets and debt.

Connie and Mik get into the world of private equity and private assets. What they actually are, how firms buy, fix, and sell businesses behind the scenes.

They chat through how private equity works, the trends shaping the space, and why it has become such a big deal in recent years. Most importantly, what it all means for the rest of us who do not have a spare few million lying around.

If you have ever heard terms like private equity, private markets, or private assets and just nodded along pretending you understood, this episode breaks it down simply, practically, and very normal-person friendly.

The AI Bubble: What’s Real, What’s Hype, and What It Means for Us

Wednesday, January 28, 2026 • Duration 14:04

The AI Bubble - big promises, big opinions, and a lot of hype.

Connie has a moment of realisation that AI hype feels a bit like looking back at old photos and thinking you actually looked good at the time, confusing, flattering, and slightly misleading.

This episode covers the potential risks of investing around AI, the possible rewards if it really does change everything, and how to think about investing with AI in mind without panicking or going all in on the buzz.

If you are unsure whether AI is the future, a bubble waiting to pop, or something in between, this episode keeps it practical, calm, and very normal-person friendly.

Oh, and yes, Mik does attempt to talk about AI without making it sound like the robots are either about to save us or take over. Results may vary.

Dividends: Your Money's Side Hustle.

Wednesday, January 21, 2026 • Duration 05:46

What IS a divident?

This week, Connie and Mik break down dividends - what they actually are, how they work, and why some people get weirdly excited about being paid for… doing nothing.

Connie learns exactly what a dividend is (spoiler: it’s not free money falling from the sky, sadly), how dividends show up on fund platforms, and why people talk about them so much when investing for the long term.

They also dig into how dividends can be used alongside the so-called 8th wonder of the world - compounding - and why reinvesting those small, boring payments can quietly turn into something much bigger over time.

If you’ve ever wondered why investors care about dividends, how they fit into funds, or whether they’re worth paying attention to at all, this episode makes it simple, practical, and very normal-person friendly.

Why Cash Isn’t Dead (Yet)

Wednesday, January 14, 2026 • Duration 07:05

Cash. The stuff we barely think about until we really need it. From power cuts and dead phones to being stranded with no way to pay, Connie shares why she now keeps emergency cash at home.

Mik breaks down the two big questions everyone avoids. Why cash still matters in day-to-day life, and how much of it you should actually be holding as part of your savings or investments.

They cover rainy day money, emergency buffers, savings accounts, gilts, ISAs, and why selling investments at the wrong time can cost you far more than you think.

Diversification: Why You Shouldn't Put All Of Your Money in One Place

Wednesday, January 7, 2026 • Duration 06:45

This week, Connie and Mik break down how spreading your investments can help protect you from bad luck, bad timing and bad decisions. In other words, diversification.

They discuss how much cash to keep, why putting all your eggs in one basket is risky, and how normal people can build a 'diversified portfolio' without needing lots of money or a finance degree.

If you have savings, a pension or even just a few quid set aside, this is one of the most important money basics to get right.

Wednesday, December 10, 2025 • Duration 08:58

Want to know what happens after you decide to invest? Where does the money go, how do you buy shares, and what are all these platforms people keep talking about?

This week, Mik explains how investment platforms work, from opening an account and moving your money in, to buying funds, shares, ISAs and pensions. They look at fees, how to choose a platform, and why some are better for small pots while others suit bigger ones.

We'll unpack how to get started, how much you really need, why it's easier than it sounds and how to avoid panicking when the numbers go up and down.

If you've ever heard the term “bond” and thought it was related to spy movies, this episode is for you.

This week, Connie and Mik explain how large companies borrow money, what corporate bonds are, and how you (yes, YOU) can get paid for lending to them.

They cover why some companies pay more interest than others, what makes a bond safer or riskier, and how this kind of investing can fit into a normal person’s finances.

It's an essential guide to one of the most confusing bits of the money world, without the jargon or the stress.

Gilts: How to Make Money from Government IOUs

Wednesday, November 19, 2025 • Duration 08:10

Connie and Mik explain what gilts are and why they have nothing to do with feeling bad about something you did or said.

Mik breaks down how lending money to the government works, how you get paid interest, and how you get your money back at the end. They cover what “coupon” and “maturity” mean, how they're are priced, and why some can be an efficient (and legal) way to pay less tax.

If you have ever wondered how the government borrows money and how you can earn from it, this episode is a good starting point.

Crypto: Have I Missed the Boat?

Wednesday, November 12, 2025 • Duration 06:17

Connie has crypto FOMO. Her friends are all seemingly making small fortunes trading digital currencies and wants to know if she has missed the chance.

Mik explains what crypto and blockchain really are, why people trade them, and why it's more of a gamble than a real investment. They also look at tax on crypto profits, how HMRC tracks trades, and what happens if you make money.

It is a clear, honest chat about the risks, the hype and the often under-reported realities of crypto.

If you've ever wondered whether to jump in on the latest alt-coin or stay well away, this episode will help you decide.
