| 0:00.0 | Coming up on Digit. |
| 0:01.5 | I'll be honest with you, I felt last week like I was looking down the barrel of a gun. |
| 0:23.2 | I really did. I just felt this rising panic in my chest all the time. And breathing, as you mentioned, I've never had that before, apart from when I did a triathlon and you get in the water and you get this breathing panic. Every time I've even asked to play myself, I start to just ham it up. I'm like, why can't I even be myself? I got asked to be in a French and Saunders sketch and I was like, I can't do it. I can't do it. I can't even play myself. If I could do anything in my life, it would be to be on stage and to be in a musical. Hang on a minute. in Le Maiz or to be on some quick call. |
| 0:37.2 | Hello. |
| 0:39.3 | Hi, is Chicago coming back? |
| 0:40.1 | Do you need a Mama, |
| 1:01.0 | Mama Morton, is it? Yeah, Joe Wiley's well up for it. All of that right after this. Digit is sponsored by Starling, the bank that helps you organise your money, build great habits and stay in control of your spending. |
| 1:07.5 | We talk a lot on this show about how a great garden starts with a bit of a plan and the right environment. |
| 1:11.3 | Well, money is the save. It's not just about what you have. It's about being intentional with it. How we choose to spend, save and plan. That's what really shapes the way we |
| 1:17.5 | live. That is so true. Being good with money isn't about being perfect. It's about building a |
| 1:22.3 | relationship with your finances that actually works for you and your life. And that's what |
| 1:26.6 | Stalin is all about. They believe that |
| 1:28.2 | with the right tools, anyone can grow those healthy habits. One habit I found so helpful is |
| 1:33.2 | separating your spending. It's that peace of mind of knowing exactly what's for the bills, |
| 1:38.6 | what's for the fun stuff and what's actually left over. And that's a tool that Starling offers |
| 1:42.5 | in their app. They call it Spaces. It's basically a pot of money sitting within your Starling current accounts, kept separate from your main balance, so you're never dipping into the wrong pot by accident. I desperately need one for the garden. Anyone who knows me knows my plant budget can get, well, a little out of hand. Exactly. And you can even create free virtual debit cards linked to each space. |
| 2:02.9 | So you can only ever spend what you've planned to, making life that little bit easier. |
| 2:06.7 | Search Starling to find out more. |
| 2:09.0 | Good with money starts here. |
| 2:13.3 | Digit is sponsored by Alzheimer's Society. |
| 2:16.1 | Joe, I had no idea that every three minutes in the UK, |
| 2:20.5 | someone develops dementia. Every three minutes, that's someone's parent, partner, best friend. |
