| 0:00.0 | A very warm welcome to consuming issues here on Share Radio. I'm Georgie Frost here every weekday from 9 until 1 with my producer Annie Weston on digital online and through the share radio mobile app making |
| 0:22.5 | the pound in your pocket go a little bit further. |
| 0:25.0 | This is the time of the week where we welcome the team from This is Money, the award-winning |
| 0:29.0 | financial website and money section of the mail online into the studios. |
| 0:34.1 | With me today, editor Simon Lambert is here with journalists Lee Boyce and Mark Schofman |
| 0:38.4 | in the studio for their weekly catch-up, where they're talking about the stories that they've |
| 0:42.3 | been investigating this week, including more trouble with pensioner bonds. This time, it's |
| 0:48.2 | The Post. Also, fixed mortgage rates fall towards 1%, but how low can they go? Well now for the future of peer-to-peer |
| 0:55.5 | and crowdfunding after the city watchdog cracks down saying investors aren't being warned of the risks. |

| 1:38.2 | I would say I would offer up the Winter X Games, |
| 1:42.2 | where they have an event called Slope Style, where it's all the jumps and |
| 1:44.8 | the rails. But actually, I'll tell you what I'd offer is Jenny Jones winning a medal for |
| 1:51.1 | Britain in the Winter Olympics in the Slope style competition there. Fantastic. Good call. |
| 1:56.0 | F-A Cup. And after the weekend previous, when Bradford beat Chelsea, Middlesbury, Beat Man City, it was fantastic. |
