40ish | The Funny Podcast on Perimenopause, Menopause & Midlife24 Juli 2025

Blood Tests, Sexy Exes and Husbands Hiding in the Loo

This week on 40ish, Lauren and Nicole ponder how many more blood tests they can possibly endure before qualifying as human pin cushions (answer: It’s a lot welcome to midlife!). Meanwhile, a listener takes umbrage at her husband’s suspiciously long (and very conveniently timed) bathroom breaks. Meanwhile, a woman debates whether to rekindle things with an old flame who slid into her DMs like it’s 2005. Should she message back… or just block and bless? Tune in for all the midlife drama, unsolicited advice, and trademark oversharing.
