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


Definitely not Raj Pander.


She's 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 celebrated a milestone birthday last year, so we've got a thing for milestones on this podcast - not just the ones we associate with age/patriarchal/societal norms though. On the Milestone episodes, Raj and her guests get into 3 milestones from their lives, discussing their expectations of them vs the reality. And on the Almost Assessments, guests take an almost medical assessment run by a “nurse” who asks the most annoying/offensive questions women get asked on a regular basis, leading to an unpredictable conversation based on their answers. On the solo episodes, Raj does a deep dive into a trending topic (eg women being pitted against each other at the Oscars a la Demi Moore and Mikey Madison) or something that's been on her mind (banning people from her funeral a la Shannon Doherty) with a little help from listeners and friends...

Almost At Goal Weight

Saison 1 · Épisode 11

vendredi 21 juin 2024Durée 01:23:23

Raj Pander and friends get into Bridget Jones... Is Bridge REALLY a problematic character? Surely the fuck not.


Aaaannnddd she gets into Bridget's and her own relationship with her weight... So she's decided to ask herself (and her people) what their weight has held them back from. If that wasn't enough, Raj has been enlightened by the Love Island Samantha/Joey/Grace scenario that she now backs the "if he wanted to he would" theory 100 percent. Does everyone else back it though?

Almost Older & Wiser

Saison 1 · Épisode 7

vendredi 17 mai 2024Durée 54:54

Raj Pander is phuckin 40 and she's lost her voice. It turns out that even though she wanted to do nothing for her 40th, her friends had other plans...


Raj gets into the representation of women in their late 30s/early 40s in film as according to the internet, Anne Hathaway is "too hot" to play a 40 year old in The Idea Of You, even though she's 41. And apparently, being 40 means she shouldn't be wearing "shoulder bearing" dresses. Has anyone ever see Moonstruck? There 's some Met Gala tea. Raj tries to figure out why she didn't want to do anything for her 40th, so she's asked her friends how they plan to celebrate theirs and what they thought 40 would look like vs what it actually will look like...


Send over your hot takes on The Idea Of You, how you're celebrating your milestone birthdays and if the ending of Desperate Housewives make sense to you
