• Unfiltered - Calf strain, retail shame and where did I put that bike?

  This week on unfiltered, Nicole has sustained a middle aged accident whilst playing the most middle aged of sports. Lauren obtains short lived retail glory after obtaining the “it” pair of loafers at M&S only to realise that she hates them and a listener questions if she is in perimenopause after an accidental bike sale. (Spoiler alert, yes)  We would love to hear from you!

• Unfiltered - Zebras, Unicorns and Phone Calls

  This week on the podcast, Nicole is grappling with a truly horrifying problem—people who call instead of texting like civilized humans. Meanwhile, Lauren is furious at her culinary failure - damn that air fryer. We’ve got plenty of listener feedback, and, in a plot twist we never saw coming, a listener needs help deciding if an adopted zebra is a thoughtful Mother’s Day gift. We have opinions. Tune in for rants, questionable advice, and the usual midlife chaos! We would love to hear from you!

• Padel, Pillows & Pap Smears—Oh My!

  This week on 40ish Lauren has a truly revealing experience at her GP’s surgery - dignity left at the door. Meanwhile, Nicole embraces the most 40-something fad of 2025: padel. Will she become a racket- wielding pro or have a deeply relatable mid life injury? A listener has an unnerving encounter with Alexa Chung at the bus stop and a bewildered man seeks the answer to one of life’s greatest mysteries : Why are middle aged women obsessed with  decorative cushions? Tune in for laughs, life lessons, and probably far too much information. We would love to hear from you!
