Media Appearances
In April 2022, I was invited to guest star on the 73rd episode of the Twin Pete’s Investing Podcast. At the time, the podcast was hosted by two well-known retail investors, Peter Higgins, known as “@conkers3” on X.com, and the second Pete, more commonly known as “WheelieDealer” on X.com.
The show covers a wide range of investing topics including commentary on markets, psychology, portfolio management and individual companies and my original guest appearance can be found below:
One year later, I was invited back onto the show to record episode 102 as a permanent co-host alongside Peter Higgins and Alex de Groote, a well-known City analyst. These episodes are now logged here and can also be found through YouTube, Soundcloud, Audioboom, and Google Podcasts.
In addition to our regular topics of investing and market events, the podcast is also used as a platform to raise money for a charity of the year. In 2023, we have selected Menphys, a Leicestershire-based charity which supports children and young people with disabilities. All donations are gratefully received at:

EPISODE LIST
Each episode of the podcast is entirely unscripted. Peter, Alex and I usually record these on alternate Wednesday evenings, publishing them on the following Friday. The episodes are around an hour in length and cover our thoughts on investing markets, current affairs, individual share commentary, and the trials and tribulations of life as private investors.
The table below sets out each episode since I joined as a permanent co-host on the show, along with a brief overview of the companies and topics we discussed. To view the episode directly from this page, you can click the episode number in the first column on the corresponding row of the table which will take you to that episode on YouTube.
