This is Money: The future of the British pound
Welcome to the This is Money with Georgie Frost, Editor Simon Lambert and assistant editor Lee Boyce Coming up on this week’s show…the pound. Bruised and battered by Brexit, it took another blow last week with some gloomy news about the UK economy. But with a no-deal potentially in the offing, how much more of a pounding will sterling take? The team look at what lies behind the decline, indeed why it’s fallen so much when jobs, wages and inflation aren’t doing badly, and what this means for interest rates and for the pound in your pocket.

This is Moneyball: European Hockey Championships
Welcome to This is MoneyBall, the podcast about what happens off the pitch. As it’s the European Championships this week, Georgie Frost and Lee Boyce go back to school – and talk about hockey. On last week's episode, the pair explored one year to the Tokyo Olympics from the boxing perspective. The view from Team GB hockey, however, is somewhat different: saved from a position of bankruptcy to being recognised as one of the best-run governing bodies in British sport. Could other sports take a lesson from hockey? Plus, what is it like to be a pro in a marginal sport, not awash with cash? And how hard is it to switch countries that you represent?

This is Moneyball: The road to Tokyo
This is MoneyBall, the podcast about what happens off the pitch with Georgie Frost and Lee Boyce. It’s one year to go until Tokyo 2020, and after the successes of London 2012 and the Rio Olympics four years later - where Team GB finished 2nd in the medals table - will Japan prove an equally happy hunting ground for our athletes, especially the boxers? With Olympic funding up almost 50% since 2012, British boxing is going through something of a purple patch right now. But there's something rotten going on at the moment that could threaten all that… Is the future of boxing at the Olympics on the ropes?

This is Moneyball: What goes on behind the scenes of a football transfer?
This is MoneyBall, the podcast about what happens off the pitch –with Georgie Frost and Lee Boyce. On today's episode, the duo are talking football transfers with sports lawyer and author of Done Deal, Daniel Geey. We ask some of the key questions: Who holds the balance of power? Are agents really just greedy money grabbers? How much work goes on behind the scenes that we don’t see? How do you value players? And why can't Zinedine Zidane just get rid of Gareth Bale? Aaron Wan-Bissaka for example has joined Manchester United for £50million. Has that huge sum now just become a normal fee for good players, not exceptional ones – and where does it end? We also talk about how social media is shaping the modern day footballer – and what Brexit could actually mean for the Premier League in England.
