| 10/19/26 | 540 | When patience isn't a virtue - all the ways waiting leaves you worse off | This weeks episode is sponsored by Charles Stanley http://charlesstanley.sjv.io/6k7oEQ We're always told that patience pays off when it comes to money. But sometimes waiting can actually leave you worse off. This week, James joins Steve to explore when holding out for something better becomes an expensive mistake. From savings accounts that pay interest upfront to rising prices, expensive debts and retirement decisions, we look at the situations where acting sooner could make financial sense. We also discuss whether it's worth waiting for the perfect deal, why putting off financial decisions can cost you money, and whether there's actually a mathematical way to know when to stop waiting.

| 10/12/26 | 539 | How scammers can trick anyone | Think you'd never fall for a scam? Think again. Scammers have been finding ways to trick people out of their money for centuries, but modern technology has made their methods increasingly sophisticated — and much harder to spot. From suspicious emails and fake websites to convincing impersonations and AI-generated voices, fraudsters have more ways than ever to catch us off guard. In this episode of Cash Chats, Steve and James explore how scams have evolved, why anyone can become a victim, and some of the tricks criminals use to gain our trust. Plus, James shares the warning signs to look out for, practical ways to protect yourself and your money, and what to do if you think you've been scammed.

| 10/5/26 | 538 | ADHD and money: impulse spending, overwhelm and what can help | This weeks episode is sponsored by Charles Stanley http://charlesstanley.sjv.io/6k7oEQ Managing money can be difficult at the best of times, but ADHD can bring its own set of challenges – from impulse spending and planning ahead to remembering deadlines, making decisions and simply finding the mental energy to deal with your finances. In this episode, Amelia is joined by neurodivergent money expert and ADHD coach Abby Birch to look at the relationship between ADHD and money. They discuss why conventional money advice doesn't always work for neurodivergent people, how emotions and executive function can affect financial decisions, and some practical ways to make managing your money feel more achievable. They also talk about impulse spending, financial anxiety, guilt and embarrassment around money, and why finding systems that work with your brain can be far more useful than trying to force yourself to manage money the way you think you "should".

| 9/28/26 | 537 | Millions hiding head in the sand over state pension | Millions of people have never checked their State Pension forecast — even though it could make up a huge part of their income in retirement. In this episode, we look at what your State Pension forecast actually tells you, what gaps in your National Insurance record could mean, and what you can do if you find them. We also look at the latest developments around the triple lock, tax and the growing concern that many of us are simply not financially prepared for later life.

| 9/14/26 | 535 | Could you save £8,000 a year on childcare? | Childcare can be one of the biggest costs facing families, with full-time childcare for a child under two averaging £263 a week. In this episode, Steve is joined by Amelia Murray to explain the help available to parents — including two government schemes that could save some families up to £8,000 a year. They cover who qualifies, how the schemes work, how much you could save and why around 400,000 families may be missing out on support they're entitled to. If childcare costs are taking a big bite out of your budget, this episode will help you understand what help is available and how to claim it.

| 9/7/26 | 534 | Britain's £306 billion savings blind spot | This week on Cash Chats, New Bank of England figures reveal that almost £306 billion is sitting in accounts paying no interest at all — more than the amount held in fixed-rate savings. So why are so many of us leaving our money somewhere that earns nothing? And with huge sums also sitting in easy-access accounts paying relatively low rates, are we making the most of our savings? This week, James Andrews joins me to look at where people are actually keeping their cash, why so much money ends up in poor-paying accounts, and what you should think about when deciding where to keep your own savings.
