In a bonus solo podcast, Tom looks at the government's ongoing review into the state pension age.
Tom discusses the review and call for evidence - which closed last month - and the issues the review will cover.
He highlights the numbers and costs to keep in mind, and how we compare to the French approach on a couple of different measures.
Tom examines the balance between pensioners and taxpayers, and how for him the intergenerational divide is starting to feel a bit "stretched".
He also gives his takeaways on parliament's review of pension freedoms, and what it tells us about government policy.
