  • Salmon Sperm, Sexual Fantasies and Bad Coats
    This week on 40ish, we're diving into the wildest mix of topics. Nicole’s friend is getting salmon sperm injections, while Lauren can’t stop obsessing over the film The Substance. Meanwhile, one listener is dying of embarrassment after accidentally texting her sexual fantasies to the wrong guy and a husband is stuck in a dilemma: Should he tell his wife he hates her new coat, or keep the peace and stay quiet? Tune in for the chaos, the cringe, and, of course, the laughs!

  • Tea, The Traitors and Rude Friends
    This week on 40ish, Lauren and Nicole are living their best reality TV lives as they debate whether they’re Traitors or Faithfuls.  Plus, things get heated (in the most British way possible) as they argue the correct way to make a cup of tea. A listener wants to know if it’s rude to ask her friends to turn off the TV for a conversation... we say, obviously, but agree that Slow Horses is an addictive series. Oh, and is it really a sign of middle age if you ask for a cast iron pot for your birthday? Tune in for this episode of 40ish where wisdom, nonsense, and questionable gift requests collide.
