The Conversation of Money is a weekly podcast exploring what’s really happening with money in the UK. Each episode looks at the financial news and strips away the noise, the panic, the hot takes to focus on what actually matters, who it affects, and how it quietly shapes everyday money decisions.
Hosted by Peter Komolafe, the show offers calm, thoughtful commentary on UK finance, helping listeners make sense of the stories behind the numbers and develop a clearer understanding of how money behaves in the real world.
