Almost 40

著者: Raj Pander
  • サマリー

  • Raj Pander is a lot of Almosts. Almost a promising young woman (she got told she was too old for a job). Almost a wifey for lifey (she’s a divorcee - according to Indian Matchmaking/Sima Aunty that makes her “disadvantaged”). And she was almost 40 when she started this podcast.


    Single. Living at home with her parents. Still watching TV shows made for teens. Still swearing on work calls. Still has an unhealthy obsession with pop culture. She’s getting older, but not necessarily wiser (s/o to Taylor Swift for relatable lyrics).


    Raj recently celebrated a milestone birthday, so we get into milestones on this podcast - not just the ones we associate with age, WE decide what a milestone is around here. On the guest episodes, Raj and her guests will get into 3 milestones from their lives, discussing their expectations of them vs the reality. And on the Almost Assessments, you'll hear guests taking a fake assessment taken by a “nurse” who asks the most annoying (and sometimes offensive) questions women get asked on a regular basis, leading to an unpredictable conversation based on their answers.


    Who said you’ve got to have your shit together by a certain age?

  • Almost Fell Off: Amber Rose Gill
    2024/09/14

    Your favourite (solo?) Love Island winner, Reality TV Qween, Romance Author and Swimwear Designer, Amber Rose Gill gets into the expectations vs the reality of being twenty something, friendship break-ups and moving to London from Newcastle. Did she really have a quarter life crisis? Is life different after a friendship break up? And why did she hate London when she first moved there? And - Raj has f***** up her thyroid. Completely her own doing and now she's mad about it.


    Has anyone tried malachite/moldavite?

  • Almost Going Home
    2024/08/25

    The one about the recent UK Race Riots, which were for some reason called "protests." What was being protested? How did POCs feel in the lead up to the riots and now, in the aftermath? Did we win the fight against racism? Expect to hear takes on that and an introduction to the Southall Race Riots which took place in 1979 (FYI Raj Pander is a Southall Girl and will never shut up about it).


    Watch Defiance (the documentary mentioned multiple times on this episode)

    Watch The Long Goodbye (Riz Ahmed's short film)
