Dauernd nur Rattern und Brummen, das hält auf langen Fahrten niemand aus, denkt sich George Frost. Hobbymäßig schraubt der Schüler schon länger an Radioapparaten herum. Warum sollte man so einen nicht in ein Auto verbauen? Damit ist das erste Autoradio in the road.

Introducing George Frost. He runs Duppy Share, a London based, Caribbean born drinks business inspired by rum folklore.  A brand so synonymous with rum in the UK, that you'd be hard pressed to remember that they're only seven years old. No doubt you've tasted their blends of Jamaican and Barmudan rums, on the streets of Notting Hill carnival, mixed your own at a house party, or danced the night away with a raised, golden Duppy cup in your hand. (And if you haven't I'd recommend their 5 year old, oak aged blend to get you started).  But while the story of rum and the caribbean, is one of fun, excitement and a welcoming nature. George's story is one that is bittersweet. He lost his father aged 26 and his brother two years later. Realising how ‘fragile' life is, he was inspired to take the leap to start Duppy Share, spurred on by his father's motto ‘Never waste a second.'  In this episode we get up close and personal with George, delving into Duppy's origin story, his recent collaboration with grime artists Kano and of course the rum itself.

A drifter finds himself rolling into a part of the country that seems like it's not even part of the world. And there, he is confronted with something that could shatter everything he's come to believe. Challenging his resolve. How will he react to learn that he's found the Library of Lost souls, and who might be there waiting to meet him. Written by George Frost.

Esta es, desgraciadamente, la banda sonora que ocasionalmente nos acompaña cuando esperamos pacientemente en un semáforo y aparece un coche de esos que parece se han escapado de la calle Infierno. Vehículos que tienen más dinero invertido en accesorios, o como diría mi padre en chuminás, que en aceite motor. Escuchar música en el coche es uno de los mayores placeres que puede experimentar una persona a la que le guste conducir, y a las que conducen a regañadientes, poner melodía a sus trayectos puede ayudar a calmar la ansiedad de los atascos. Las radios en el coche son casi tan antiguas como el mismo invento del vehículo a motor. La historia de la radio en el coche se inició en 1922, George Frost desarrolló un prototipo de radiorreceptor compacto que podía ser manipulado usando únicamente dos botones giratorios. El invento de Frost se colocó en un Ford Model T, el coche más popular del planeta por aquel entonces, y está considerado el primer vehículo de la historia en equipar una autorradio. El primer dispositivo receptor de radio en el coche que se comercializó con cierto éxito llegó en 1930, el Motorola 5T71 de Galván Manufacturing Corporation costaba entre 110 y 130 dólares, más o menos el mismo precio de algunos de los automóviles que se vendían por entonces. Más o menos lo que pasa ahora. Ahora con las radios con Bluethoot no hay que llevar cassettes, ni cd’s, ni mp3 para escuchar música.

More than five years since pension freedom arrived a solution to take the pain out of investing in retirement is being lined up. Before pension freedom many savers were locked into buying an annuity with their personal pensions or defined contribution work schemes – and a lot of them felt they were getting a raw deal. That’s meant that keeping a pension invested and drawing on it as you choose in retirement has proved a very popular option. It is also a very tricky one to navigate – but now some simple help is at hand, so will it crack the conundrum of pension freedom without the pain? Tumbling annuity rates, an industry that failed to make sure people shopped around and the gamble on life expectancy that meant if you died early then you and your family would lose out, made annuities hugely unpopular. So, Chancellor George Osborne came up with a big bang approach that meant nobody had to if they didn’t want to anymore. The problem is that many people had simply opted for a ‘pay money into my pension while working and not think about it’ approach and so had no real idea how to invest for retirement. Now the industry has come up with a solution that involves savers being offered four ready-made investment deals when they first dip into their pension pots, if they do so without financial advice. On this week’s podcast George Frost, Tanya Jefferies and Simon Lambert, discuss whether this is the answer that savers need. They also look at the tsunami of pension and investment scams, what people can do to protect themselves and ask whether it’s the FCA or Google and the social media companies that should be doing more to crack down on it. Simon outlines his theory on why just as we are about to be able to get out and enjoy ourselves again, some big ticket inflation might hit. And the team look at another Santander 123 account rate cut – is it time for customers to finally give up, or is it a deal still worth having? 

In this edition of Biting Talk, food critic William Sitwell chats to Kate Nicholls, crusading on behalf of the nation’s restaurants, bars and hotels, he meets George Frost, who talks about how his rum Duppy Share draws inspiration from family holidays with his father, the TV legend Sir David Frost. Fia Gullikson champions the idea of a Swedish feast for this year’s Midsummer festivities and we catch up with Ewan Venters, the ever-positive CEO of London store Fortnum and Mason.

Good news. Chances are you just got a tax cut. Well an income tax cut at least, problem is your council tax is likely to be rising and if you are an investor the Government is after more of your dividends, or if you’re a landlord it wants your rental income. So who are the winners and losers of the new tax year that rolled round on 6 April? And what are the candidates for dumbest bits of Britain’s tax code. In this week’s podcast, Simon Lambert, Rachel Rickard Straus and George Frost take a look at who is getting the biggest tax cut and who is being hit. They also discuss whether we need a new hypothecated tax to pay for the NHS. Also on this week’s show we look at the best rural places to live in the UK and how to invest in wine without breaking the bank. And finally, Britain’s ten most hated driving moves have been revealed. Parallel parking we get, but why are there so many people who struggle to navigate a roundabout.

This week we meet Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones to talk about his guitar collection and... oh, sorry, that's not true. However we dress this up, the truth is that this week's show and probably next week and the week after features more Brexit. Not too much though. Saved by of all things, Milton Keynes and more specifically its car parks. To kick off, Simon Lambert, Rebecca Rutt and George Frost take a reflective look over the week's events and wonder in the wake of Brexit... What's the point of interest rates, and interest rates meetings and Bank of England musings on interest rates if they never change? What's the point of quantitative easing if all it does is stoke house prices? What was the point of George Osborne? Remember him? The Chancellor who gambled it all on house prices and fear... and lost. What's the point of estate agents now buyer demand for homes has fallen at the sharpest rate on record? What's the point of new Chancellor Phillip Hammond when we have no economic plan? At least this one's got a degree in economics and industry experience. What's the point of the new Cabinet? The government one, not a sideboard - or maybe there's not a lot of difference. What was the point of austerity when all it did was make the poorest pay for riches' mistakes. It's a great show. There's some stuff on pensions and when they're next going to be mucked about with and parking rage and portal juggling. And finally, the economy may be heading back to the dark ages but the future has arrived in Milton Keynes. It's been named the second best place to work in the country and it's going to get better with free parking for electric cars.

In the way that worried nuclear bunker owners are probably stock-piling food as the reality of a President Trump dawns on them, so the Bank of England is preparing for the financial equivalent. The bank that has its finger on the financial pulse of the nation is worried. Worried enough to create a ‘what if…’ model that incorporates total financial meltdown, a collapse in the value of housing and the end of banking as we know it. It maybe the stuff of nightmares but it’s also what This is Money editor Simon Lambert, personal finance editor Rachel Rickard Straus and Share Radio presenter George Frost tackle on in this week’s light entertainment look at the week’s money events. How will we cope if oil becomes so cheap there’s no point extracting it, if savings rates are so low they’re negative or if a lack of growth turns to depression? Are we really on the brink of another financial crisis? In other news… There’s tough new checks on buy-to-let – the clampdown continues (the Bank of England is worried about that too) Buy-to-let has caused a big fall in house prices – but only in Bolton People who trusted a unauthorised online bank that issued fake cheques may lose their homes You’ll learn how to use your body to make money (no, not like that) And… What’s the weirdest job you’ve ever had? Bog standard like Georgie or bog standards like Rachel?
