Entrenched beliefs about money can be very de-stabilising: that it's the root of all evil and brings guilt with it, that 'good people don't need money', that if you have money it's in some way 'bad' whereas if you don't, you suffer anxiety and stress about where it's going to come from. This episode seeks to change that mindset, to show how having money can be a positive and can provide for others as well as yourself. If you're searching for more empowering beliefs about money, this could be for you.

James Cameron-Wilson laments a box office falling another 34% (ahead of next week's Wakanda Forever). The Banshees of Inisherin is strong at #3 with over £6m while Living, with Bill Nighy, enters at #4. James (and Simon) adore the film and hope Nighy will finally get the Oscar recognition that has eluded him. On Netflix, James thinks the German remake of All Quiet On The Western Front is a masterpiece while he finds Causeway, on Apple+, full of wonderful performances, including that of Jennifer Lawrence.
