Description

"Now I’m a grown up… do I have to get married? Do I have to scrimp and save?? Do I have to host a dinner party??? GrownUpLand poses the most frustrating questions. Luckily, Sophie Duker, Heidi Regan and Ned Sedgwick are here to guide you through the bewildering pursuit of adulthood.

Through stupid challenges, useful facts and personal stories of rich victory and miserable failure, your guides will ensure you don’t feel alone in your hopeless endeavour to be a legit grown up. Plus, every week a special guest candidly shares their experiences, from failed dates and drunken mistakes to moments of clarity and pet hates. And the very handsome Steve Ali, a refugee from Syria now a writer and silversmith in the UK, helps to put a listener’s dilemma into perspective.

Co-created by Deborah Frances-White for The Spontaneity Shop and BBC Radio 4.

Produced by Al Riddell."

We'll, this was rubbish. Listened to one episode about choosing one's career, and the episode gave no solid advice whatever. It instead consisted of jokes, feel good stories, and how we should appreciate how good we already have it. Overall, that episode made me feel even more uncertain and confused about the future.

episode ruined by extremely fake rubbish laugh, hope this doesn't continue as I had been really enjoying the series otherwise!

I was unsure how the change of cast for season 3 would effect the show but I'm still really enjoying it.

I've just discovered this podcast and absolutely love it! I haven't been binging on a show like that since Queereye was released on Netflix. I find you all very relatable and can't wait to here more from you guys! Thank you for entertaining me :)

Great show as always but was disappointed by Tom Gillifords comments about the impact of animal protein production. All food does have an environmental impact and his argument about none animal foods being similar was totally incorrect. Yes soya based food does need to be grown and it has an impact but growing soya to feed a cow to then eat is on a completely different scale!! wish you had of challenged him.
