  • Ep3: Scott Bennett

    Comedian Scott Bennett is our guest this week, and boy does he have some stories to tell - particularly in the genre of nightmare holiday deals.


    He's also got some foolproof advice on how to save money on the cost of a house, and before we even start properly we get a pretty in depth rant about train travel and the perils that lie within.


    Scott has his own brilliant podcast that he hosts with his wife Jemma - it's called Brew With The Bennetts and you can find it wherever you got this podcast.

  • Ep2: Zoe Lyons

    Comedian and presenter Zoe Lyons joins Vix Leyton and Paul Watson to discuss her retail habits - there’s talk of eggs (quite lot of talk about eggs, frankly), safari suits and paddle boards - plus Zoe tells us why she finds absolutely everything in life disappointing.


    She also has an incredible story involving a long distance run and some spicy noodles (warning: it’s exactly what you think).

  • Ep1: Michael Chakraverty

    Bake Off treasure Michael Chakraverty is our first ever guest! He joins Vix Leyton and Paul Watson who rifle through his shopping history, to find out everything from his best ever bargains to his worst rip-offs.


    There's a whole gamut of topics on the table from expensive coffee machines to pregnancy tests, the mystery of dehumidifiers, e-mails from Taylor Swift and velvet swimsuits.


    And Michael also reveals all the items he nicked from the Bake Off tent because, after all, this show is about getting the best value for money possible (although we must advise for legal reasons that stealing is technically not the same as 'getting value for money').


    Michael can be found @mschakraverty on all the socials, plus do check out his podcast Menkind with Mark Watson which is available wherever you got this podcast.
