Bridesmaids: The cost of weddings, the madness of hen dos and does wealth affect friendships?

In our first ever episode, we discuss 2010s comic masterpiece and inspiration for our name, Bridesmaids - which, as it turns out, is a film as much about money as it is about friendships and romance. We discuss everything from Helen's pathological generosity and Annie's inability to get out of her own way, to what we regret spending on our own weddings and the delicate financial etiquette of big events.We hope you enjoy, and please do rate, review and follow - as a new podcast, every bit of support makes a big difference!If you want to suggest a film, book, TV show or topic for us to put under the money microscope, please DM us @helpmeimpoorcast or email us at helpmeimpoorpodcast@gmail.com.And just a quick heads-up: all content on HMIP is for information and education purposes only.
