MSIX: ‘We want them to be rich in life’: Sally McMullen says Two Broke Chicks isn’t a lecture

Sally McMullen and her “best friend” Alexandra Hourigan met while working at comparison website Finder, and launched the Two Broke Chicks podcast under the Finder umbrella.

“We would always just talk constantly at work,” McMullen recalled at MSIX earlier this week. “Our bosses were like, ‘okay, we need to do something. We need to monetise you two.'”

The first season launched in October 2021, and within a year-and-a-half, “it really started to take off”, and had basically became their full-time role at work. The pair then decided to take it solo, and have steered the operation for the past 18 months.
