So, can you actually make money trading – or is it a near-guaranteed way to lose it all?

In this episode of Investing Unlocked, Georgie Frost and Rick Kelsey sit down with professional trader Michael Taylor – better known as Shifting Shares – to explore why most traders lose money, and what separates the ones who don't.

Michael shares his honest personal journey into UK small-cap trading, from the costly mistakes he made along the way and how those lessons shaped his approach today.

This episode looks past the social media noise to break down the mechanics of the market – from CFDs to spread betting – the discipline needed to manage risk, and what to actually look for before risking your capital.

One involves investors pouring billions into a company promising to reshape the future. The other involves fans paying thousands to watch 22 people kick a ball around a field. But when excitement reaches fever pitch, who actually wins?

In this episode of Investing Unlocked Extra, Georgie Frost is joined by Economics Editor at Investors' Chronicle, Hermione Taylor, to explore the economics behind two global phenomena.

What exactly are investors buying when they buy into SpaceX? Are they backing a business, or a vision? With AI companies, IPO hopefuls and tech giants all demanding fresh capital, where is all that money coming from?

And what can the World Cup teach us about value, price and speculation? Why are fans willing to pay Taylor Swift prices for football? Do host countries really benefit from staging major tournaments? And when you follow the money, who are the real winners?

A conversation about hype, scarcity, storytelling and what happens when excitement becomes an asset.

So is it time to back Britain – or is it already too late?

In this episode of Investing Unlocked, Georgie Frost and Simon Lambert talk to Clive Beagles – Senior Fund Manager at J O Hambro Capital Management – to make sense of why one of the world's oldest stock markets is sleepwalking towards irrelevance.

They get into the "Cool Britannia" era of the 90s versus today, how negative press coverage has become a self-fulfilling prophecy, and what the FTSE 100 and FTSE 250 actually tell you about the UK economy.

Clive also explains how unlocking the vast savings held by UK households could be the key to turning things around – and what investors should actually do with UK equities right now.

They discuss:

 • The speculation around taxing cash held within Stocks & Shares ISAs
 • What happens to transfers between Cash and Stocks & Shares ISAs under the new rules
 • Why flexibility matters when it comes to saving and investing
 • Whether higher taxes on savings, dividends and capital gains signal a wider shift in UK wealth taxation

Plus, Sarah shares practical tips on choosing the right ISA for your goals and the one group of savers who may want to consider taking action before the new rules come into force.

If you're wondering how the ISA landscape is changing — and what it could mean for your financial future — this episode is essential listening.

In this episode of Investing Unlocked Extra, Georgie Frost is joined by author and award-winning investment journalist Cherry Reynard to unpack what’s happening in the gilt market, why investors are getting nervous about Britain’s finances and what it could mean for mortgages, pensions and the wider economy.

They discuss:

• What gilts actually are – and why they matter
• Why rising yields affect mortgage rates and borrowing costs
• Whether this is another “Liz Truss moment”
• The role of inflation, energy prices and political instability
• Why bond markets care so much about fiscal credibility
• Whether UK government debt is becoming a problem
• How gilts show up in pensions and investments
• Whether bonds are actually attractive again for investors

Cherry also explains the famous “bond vigilantes” idea, why markets can intimidate governments, and whether Britain’s finances are more fragile than many people realise.

If you’ve heard people talking about gilt yields and wondered why it matters to your own money, this episode breaks it down clearly, calmly and without jargon.

In this episode of Investing Unlocked, Georgie Frost and Simon Lambert sit down with Rob Dix – author, landlord and co-founder of Property Hub – to ask if investing in property is still worth it. And if it is, how do you actually do it well?

They interrogate the long-held British belief that "my property is my pension," identifying who property genuinely suits as an asset class – and who should walk away.

The conversation also covers what actually makes a "good" investment property in 2026 and exactly what you’ll need to consider before you even think about buying.

For anyone who has ever assumed property is "safe as houses”, this episode will make you think again.

From a brand new pensions bill to debates over the future of the triple lock, and even changes to salary sacrifice, the UK pensions landscape is shifting fast.

In this episode of Investing Unlocked Extra, Georgie Frost speaks with pensions expert and Times columnist Tom McPhail about what’s changing, what it means for your retirement, and what you should actually be paying attention to.

They also explore the growing tension between government control and individual choice, why trust in the system matters more than ever, and the simple steps people can take to stay on track.

In this episode, we explore:

• What the new pensions bill actually means for savers
• Why the government wants “fewer, bigger, better” pension schemes
• The controversy around the government’s proposed investment powers
• What the triple lock is - and why its future is under threat
• How changes to salary sacrifice could affect higher earners
• Why many people are losing trust in pensions and investing
• What younger generations are really up against financially
• The simple steps you can take now to build a stronger retirement plan
• If you’re unsure what all these changes mean for you - or whether you’re doing enough for retirement - this episode breaks it down in a way that actually makes sense.

The truth is, most people are terrible with money - but it's not for lack of knowledge. It's how we're wired.

In this episode of Investing Unlocked, Georgie Frost and Simon Lambert sit down with financial psychotherapist, Vicky Reynal - Times columnist and author of Money on Your Mind - for a rare look at the psychology behind our most common investing mistakes.

They get into why intelligent, successful people still make poor money choices, how the beliefs we picked up in childhood shape the way we invest today, and how to rewire those subconscious patterns and take back control of your financial future.

For a generation priced out of property, it's become something more. Social media, for many, is a genuine route to financial education. But unregulated and ungoverned, the lines between education, entertainment and sales are becoming increasingly blurred ... and we're seeing a rise in misinformation, bad actors and outright scams.

So in a sea of content, who can we actually trust?

In this episode of Investing Unlocked, Georgie Frost and Rick Kelsey talk to personal finance educator and TikTok's “That Money Guy”, Gabriel Nussbaum – a finfluencer with over a million followers and a mission to make financial education free and transparent.

Together, they explore how social media is rewriting the rules of wealth, the darker side of finfluencer culture and the red flags every investor needs to watch for.

So what went wrong?

In this episode of Investing Unlocked Extra, Georgie Frost speaks to finance journalist Holly Mead about why traditional defensive investments sometimes fail – and what investors should really do when markets turn volatile.

They explore:

• Why gold and bonds dropped during a geopolitical crisis
• Whether defensive assets still have a place in portfolios
• How inflation and interest rates change investment behaviour
• What actually performed well during the market turmoil
• Whether younger investors should bother with defensive assets at all

If you're wondering how to build a resilient investment portfolio in uncertain times, this episode breaks it down in clear, practical terms.

For the “true believers”, it’s the ultimate disruptor - decentralised, borderless, and built to thrive outside an outdated financial system. To the skeptics, it’s less of a revolution and more about faith than fundamentals.

But between the cult-like hype and the constant predictions of total collapse, what the heck is actually happening?

In this episode of Investing Unlocked, Georgie Frost and Simon Lambert sit down with Glenn Goodman – a former financial journalist turned full-time crypto trader and author of The Crypto Trader - to demystify the market once and for all.

They tackle the questions that actually matter to your wallet: Is crypto losing its "currency" in today’s volatile markets? How do you buy crypto safely in an unregulated market? And in a world of "crypto bros" and overnight millionaires, who is really winning?

For any investor trying to make sense of the noise, this episode offers a clear-eyed look at whether crypto has a place in a serious investment portfolio – or if it’s a gamble you can afford to skip.

In the late nineties, we were told that boom and bust was a thing of the past - yet we all know how that turned out. Bubbles keep happening – and they seem to be happening more often. Some say we may even be due another crash.

So how can you spot one, prepare for it, and learn from what history has taught us about money, markets and our own behaviour?In this episode of Investing Unlocked, Georgie Frost is joined by financial historian Will Quinn, author of Boom and Bust: A Global History of Financial Bubbles, along with series regular Simon Lambert.

From the tulip mania of the 17th century to the 2008 financial crisis, they explore the events that shape our understanding of bubbles and the psychology behind them. The conversation shifts to how the media fuels the frenzy, and the recent surges in cryptocurrency and AI investments, posing the question: Are we currently living in a bubble?

For investors trying to make sense of market cycles in these uncertain times, this episode offers practical insights on how to learn from the past to avoid the next big mania.

In the first episode of Investing Unlocked, Georgie Frost is joined by Jonathan Guthrie, former Lex editor at the Financial Times and author of The Truth About Investing, with this season’s regular guest Simon Lambert.

The three talk about what investing really involves once you strip away the noise: why trying to be clever often backfires, timing the market is so tempting, and behaviour matters more than brilliance.

There are no hot tips here. No magic strategies. Just a clear, honest chat about how investing really works in practice and why steady decisions usually beat bold ones.

Whether you’re new to investing or have been doing it for years, this is about understanding what genuinely drives results.
