When did a banana turn into a bar of gold? Or a bag of grapes a luxury? We're deep in a cost-of-living crisis and the squeeze is causing pure, unrelenting rage often misdirected at our unsuspecting, lunchbox-leaving children who have no idea of the value of their leftovers.

This isn’t just a discussion about financial woes, it’s a raw, honest conversation about feeling the pinch, shielding kids from adult worries, and the shared anxiety that spans across communities and generations. We're experiencing a death by a thousand cuts while juggling side gigs, budgeting madly, and questioning every grocery item.

Although the stress is universal, sharing it lightens the load. So while we try to figure out this post-Covid, inflation-fueled minefield, Tim and Sim are in the trenches with you. If you’re feeling squeezed, worried, or just need to let off steam about the cost of living, this episode is for you. And whoever solves the banana crisis first, the next bottle of Aldi wine is on us. 🍷
