  • BBC Sounds Music Radio podcasts.

  • Hello, and welcome to the cunningly named the Martin Lewis Podcast.

  • I do wonder what that's all going to be about.

  • Now, some of this podcast comes from my Radio 5 live show with Adrian Charles.

  • But don't worry, there's also lots of special bits just for you lucky, lucky podcast listeners.

  • In today's pod, interest rates are dropping and saving rates sadly following suit.

  • So I'm leading on a savings Q and A about how to make every penny work as hard as it can, including easy access, fixed and regular saving, savings, cash ISAs, lifetime ISAs, help to save, and more.

  • As Black Friday approaches, the big question, is it really a big deal or a big dud?

  • Should you be doing your shopping now?

  • We've had a beautiful response to this week's Tellers you recant moving stories of unrequested, unrequited acts of financial kindness.

  • For all those who've lost faith in their fellow human beings, it's worth a listen.

  • Today's mastermind is all about energy bills.

  • And I'll also talk you through the price cap announcement due out tomorrow.

  • I say tomorrow.

  • That's from where I sit.

  • You may be listening to this later, in which case it's already happened, which makes me slightly nervous in case I've got it wrong.

  • I mean, I don't know what's going to happen, but I think I've got a good idea.

  • And to finish, there was a huge response on last week's slot on Are premium bonds Worth it?

  • And as this pod's about savings, we've repeated it at the end, just in case you missed it.

  • Play the theme tune.
