The Financial Anxieties of Your Parents' Retirement & Winter Energy Bills
Have you ever wondered if your parents are set up for retirement? And what that might mean if they’re not? This week on Friday Drinks, we’re unpacking a dilemma that’s hitting way too many millennials right now... the quiet stress of realising your parents might not be financially ready for the future, and the pressure of what happens next. Plus, it’s starting to get colder, and that means heater wars, passive-aggressive group chats, and winter power bills that could wreck your budget faster than you can say “"put a jumper on". It’s a classic Friday Drinks: a little bit unhinged, a whole lot real, and full of the money convos no one else is having... but we definitely should be.Ready for more laughs, lessons, and unhinged money chats?

Broken Brains: Nobody Prepares You for This Financial Emergency
You’ve planned your budget, built your emergency fund, and followed all the financial advice... but what happens when life throws something so big, so chaotic, that none of it is enough? In this ep we're joined by special guests, and the writers of new book Broken Brains, Jamila Rizvi and Rosie Waterland. Two women whose lives were turned upside down by illness, trauma, and the brutal reality of trying to keep your head above water when your brain and body won’t cooperate, and the bills keep coming anyway. We talk about the invisible costs of being unwell, the gap between public support and real-life needs, and the quiet shame that follows financial instability and even lasagna inequality (yes, really). It’s raw, it’s funny, it’s deeply human, and it might be exactly what you need to hear right now. Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of serious mental illness, trauma, childhood abuse, psychiatric care, and financial distress. Please listen with care, and know that support is available. If you or someone you know is struggling, contact Lifeline at 13 11 14 or visit Beyond Blue.
