The money podcast that’s more Chandler Bing than Chip & Pin. Each week, we dive into how money shows up in our favourite films and TV shows—whether it’s the ridiculous wealth of Gossip Girl, the financial chaos of Bridget Jones, or the unrealistic rent situations in Friends.
Money is everywhere in pop culture, shaping our ideas about spending, saving, and success, often without us even realizing it. But talking about money can feel awkward, boring, or just overwhelming—so we’re making it easier (and way more fun).
Join us as we explore the economics of your favourite characters, the financial red flags we should have seen coming, and the big money lessons hidden in the most iconic moments of film and TV.

Welcome to Season 4 of Help Me, I’m Poor, the money podcast that’s more Bitsy von Muffling than Bitcoin 💅
This week, we’re diving into Sex and the City Season 4, where Carrie and Big attempt the impossible: staying friends after their breakup 👀 From awkward dinners to emotional whiplash, we unpack why “just friends” rarely means just friends and how money, power, and emotion often tangle together in their dynamic.
Then comes the apartment scandal 🏠💸 when Carrie realises she can’t afford to buy her home and has to face her financial reality head on. It’s one of the show’s most relatable storylines: talking about money with friends, borrowing it, and the shame that can creep in when we’re not as “financially together” as we think we should be.
We’ll dig into how society moralises being “good with money,” why that’s both unrealistic and unhelpful, and whether Carrie’s spending habits and impulsivity might actually hint at something deeper. Could our girl have a touch of ADHD energy?
