Today on 40ish: Nicole is nostalgic for Peter Andre (yes, mysterious girl, waterfall etc) and has officially lost patience with people who think we need their full autobiography before getting to the lasagna recipe. Meanwhile, Lauren is incandescent with rage over a dog in a velour tracksuit. (No, really. A DOG. IN VELOUR. Let that sink in.)

And if that weren’t enough midlife madness, our listeners are bringing the drama too: one woman is wondering if she should cancel a holiday after someone else’s husband got a little too flirty around the fire pit. Honestly—this is middle age, not Love Island, dude. Grow up! 

We love to hear from you! To share your feedback, dilemmas, rants, funny stories or general complaints about midlife please be in touch at:
