• Victoria Mapplebeck: The Unfiltered Rollercoaster of Motherhood

  On this week’s episode, we’re joined by filmmaker Victoria Mapplebeck, who spent 20 years filming life with her son Jim on nothing more than an iPhone. The result? Motherboard — a brutally honest, unexpectedly funny chronicle of single motherhood, breast cancer, teenage tantrums, and unconditional love.From supermarket bread dashes at midnight to the shock of a 60th birthday that feels less like loss and more like freedom, Victoria’s story is one every woman will recognise in some way.Because no one tells you motherhood isn’t glossy montages — it’s gallows humour, late bills, fear, laughter, and the kind of bond that never lets go.Get in touch with your thoughts at [email protected].

From Aggie’s bra controversy to monster courgettes and Harley-Davidson daydreams, it’s another gloriously sideways look at life after 60.Whether you’re hiding your laugh, rethinking a red sports car, or just trying to dodge the label “senior,” this one’s for you. Because no one tells you ageing is equal parts ridiculous and revealing.Get in touch with your thoughts at [email protected]. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
