Bad Cake, Skinny Jeans & a Tampon Emergency

In today’s episode of 40ish: Lauren is spiralling over the sudden disappearance of Hermesetas and asking how is she supposed to drink a hot beverage now? Whilst Nicole is back at her spiritual home (Costco) and thrilled with her new veg chopper. In other news that nobody emotionally prepared us for: skinny jeans are back. We discuss how to wear them in midlife without looking like you’re heading out to a 2010 Topshop launch in a statement necklace and ballet pumps.. A listener writes in with a bad taste in her mouth (spoiler alert: it’s her mother in laws disgusting cakes) And finally, a listener meltdown involving a first day at a new job, peri-menopausal surprise bleeding, navy trousers doing God’s work, and asking a woman half your age for a tampon. Mortifying. Yes, Highly relatable also yes. Grab a cuppa (with no hermasetas) and some cake (not that cake) and enjoy!
