This week on 40ish: Lauren is cooing over the Costco catalogue and Nicole is along for the ride - heated fleece blanket anyone? The pair debate over whether prawn cocktail crisps count as a “classic,” before descending into mild hysteria when they realise they’re spending their forties discussing the merits of Um Bongo vs Ki-Ora on a public platform. Elsewhere, Lauren’s husband might need a quiet moment when he finds his wife rapping on TikTok, a listener wonders if a fiver for a kids’ party pizza is the new normal, and another woman fears her testosterone cream might be turning her into a gorilla.

Midlife: it’s a trip.
