On this week’s Midweek Catchup, we’re talking about everything from buying your first Christmas present in September to facing chemo with a mix of grit and humour. Karen shares how she’s bracing for treatment (and getting organised early), while Kaye reminds her that every child is apparently a genius — especially when it’s yours.

From dodgy halloumi-and-pineapple dinners to heartfelt listener emails, it’s an episode full of laughter, honesty, and the kind of solidarity you only find in midlife.

Because no one tells you how quickly life can shift — or how much you’ll need your friends (and a decent hat) to carry you through.
