Ikea, Oprah & a Farting Coffin I Midlife Nostalgia & Comedy Podcast

Here’s a great tidbit: Leslie Nielsen had a coffin that made farting noises. Yep, you read the right, and we must say, what a way to send yourself off from this world 💨 That’s how we start the show off this week!

We then have our first segment, ‘Rant or Rave,’ where we explore the wonderful world that is Ikea. From Swedish meatballs to the never ending labyrinth that has you panicking and wondering ‘will I ever get out of here?!’ Yep, Ikea has it all, and we unpack this flatpack behemoth.

In our ‘Do You Remember’ segment, we’re looking back at the daytime TV talkshows of the 80s, 90s and 2000s. It wasn’t always shock TV back in Phil Donahue’s day, but sure was once Jerry Springer came along. What do we recall about these shows we loved to watch when we had a day off school?

Here’s what to expect:

👉The funny funerals we’ve heard about

👉Millennial ‘cringe’ fashion - do we really care?

👉The good, the bad, and the Scandi-ness of Ikea

👉Ricky Lake, Oprah, and TV talk show nostalgic moments

If you want an escape from the chaos of everyday life, then this half hour show is just what the doctor ordered.

🍵Grab yourself a cuppa, sit back, and enjoy the show…
