You're invited to our kitchen-table conversation where we find the humour in the everyday chaos of midlife. This week, we discuss the shock of realising our personal history is now 'museum-worthy'. We discuss everything from the "correct" way to load a dishwasher (Kirk has a diagram ready!) to a heated debate over whether crisps belong in a sandwich. Learn the intricacies of the snack hierarchy and the ultimate biscuit for dunking your tea. Plus, hear the hilarious (and painful) stories of Nikki accidentally eating wasabi and jalapeño. It's a proper British chat full of real-life stories and genuine connection.
