This week, we're dabbling with reality TV and talking about all things money and relationships as we delve into Love is Blind UK.

Do the couples in the pods have an advantage over us when it comes to choosing a financially compatible partner?

When exactly is the right time to ask a love interest what their credit score is?

And is having a secret stash of cash savvy or dishonest?

This week, we're taking a trip back in time to Bridget's London, where a single woman in her early 30s can live alone in Borough Market on a publishing salary. Where the knickers are enormous, the jumpers are reindeer themed and the soup is blue.

We talk about our longing for the social mobility of the nineties and early noughties, the cost of being single, and how diet culture and poor self image are stealing all of our money.

You should definitely pick up Nicola Slawson's book, Single, and check out Emma Edwards @thebrokegeneration.

This week we look at the lives of the Upper East-Siders: the pressures of growing up in a family firm, how wealth compounds through generations and how on earth Dan and Jenny, with their palatial Brooklyn loft, could have ever felt poor.

We also discuss the bank of Mum and Dad and all the strings that are often attached, including the realities of just how much money some people are gifted. The i Paper piece we discuss is here:

This week, we dive into the money stuff in the latest season of The White Lotus - and there is PLENTY of it. We talk Tim Ratliffe's descent into despair and the choice he eventually makes, Belinda's big negotiation and what it means to be truly spoilt.

Plus, we cost out a morning routine that makes Saxon's religious smoothie-making look very mild by comparison.

In this week's episode, we discuss Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice just in time for the 20th anniversary of the 2005 film release.

With money issues woven throughout the plot, we talk about how female financial agency has (and hasn't) changed throughout the years, inheritance beef and why Mr Collins is more relatable than you might think.

If you're as much of a 2005 P&P fan as we are, you can book special screenings throughout the year, including a dreamy open-air event at Salibury Cathedral.

In our first ever episode, we discuss 2010s comic masterpiece and inspiration for our name, Bridesmaids - which, as it turns out, is a film as much about money as it is about friendships and romance. We discuss everything from Helen's pathological generosity and Annie's inability to get out of her own way, to what we regret spending on our own weddings and the delicate financial etiquette of big events.
