On this week’s episode, we’re joined by Maria McErlane, who brings sharp humour, unapologetic honesty, and a lifetime of mischief as she talks about ageing, invisibility, reinvention, sex, grief, and why she finally surrendered to an e-bike.

Whether you’re feeling more third age than old age or still trying to work out who you are at 60+, this one lands. Maria opens up about changing identities, losing confidence, chasing curiosity, and why keeping your world small is the fastest way to feel older than your years.

She also shares stories from her years in showbiz, the realities of life on the fringes of fame, and how she and Graham Norton now dish out dilemmas and laughter on their own podcast Wanging On.

Because no one tells you that the most interesting part of your life might start right when society decides you’re invisible.
