Picky Bits, Adulting & the Memorial Bench

All Episodes

April 30, 2025 • 46 mins

This week on 40ish, Lauren is installing a memorial bench (a bit pre-emptive for someone who is still living) whilst Nicole has a crash course in adulting when a youngster crashes into her car. A listener is fed up being used as a free Uber service by her colleagues and a prawn ring turns into a boxing ring when angry words are exchanged after a nice “picky bits in the garden” afternoon goes horribly wrong. Grab your carrot sticks and hummus and tune in for a serving of midlife meltdowns. We love to hear from you!
