The Hypnotist: Heat Wave of Positivity and Optimism
Besieged by rising taxes and interest rates, we're in urgent need of some positivity and optimism at present: so this episode, recorded by Adam Cox in the midst of the summer heatwave, might just be the answer at this challenging time. Noting our tendency always to see the grass greener on the other side of the fence, he taps into the heatwave's inspiration for being relaxed and resourceful to encourage a 'polarity response' which works for you, not against you.

The Financial Outlook For Personal Investors: Has Real Estate bottomed?
Russ Mould of A J Bell explains why interest rates are so important for property and why shares such as Real Estate Investment Trusts fall as the 10-year "risk free" gilt yield goes up. But many are on big discounts to net asset value (which may yet fall of course). Central banks are more worried about deflation than inflation, reckons Russ, and if interest rates are peaking, it may be worth keeping an eye on the sector, bearing in mind that there are many different types of REITS and lots carry a good deal of debt.

The Business of Film: The Menu, Confess Fletch & The Wonder
With box office off 37% and Wakanda Forever still at #1, James Cameron-Wilson strongly recommends black satire The Menu with Ralph Fiennes at #2. Confess, Fletch, a spoof detective movie with Jon Hamm only made #16. However, James does also recommend psychological thriller The Wonder, directed by Sebastián Lelio, which vanished quickly from cinemas but is now on Netflix. Starring Florence Pugh, James found it a moving work of art.

Thought for the Week: Conservative Socialism
Far from digging the UK out of the mess that seventy years of socialist welfare have got it into, our new Conservative government seems intent on burying us still deeper. Of course fiscal responsibility must come first, but why perpetuate the myth that everyone, including the wealthy, must receive equal free rations: even if it significantly reduces the amount of public resources available for those most in need? At least the NHS in Scotland has heard the message, even if politicians across the board don't understand (or is it just electoral bribery?). What we really need is a strategy for individual freedom within an egalitarian society — we're a long way from this at present. Background music: 'Freedom?' by Dan Lebowitz
