About this listen
On this week’s Midweek Catchup, we tumble through the very specific flavour of December mayhem — Karen accidentally sleeping through chemo while the nurses wait to go home, the slow disappearance of her right eyebrow, and a restaurant saga that ends with a truly dreadful pizza and a packet of chocolate éclairs to recover from it.
Whether you’re still counting out sleeping tablets like an advent calendar or noticing that every jumper you own now looks suspiciously like your mother’s, there’s something familiar here for anyone navigating midlife with a raised eyebrow (or… half of one).It’s never just about the cold cap or the cancelled booking — it’s the absurdity, the warmth, and the little shocks of recognition when life over 45 throws up another “oh, so this is who I am now” moment.
We also hear from listeners — including Jill, whose “Year of Being Brave” feels like exactly the kind of spark so many women are craving as 2026 approaches. Plus: tiny trip-hazard dogs, quiet-table negotiations, and why Kaye absolutely should not come to Karen’s final chemo session
