Talking Cod: a survivor’s guide to middle age

Many of us constantly judge ourselves by our own high standards, but does everything have to be 100% all of the time?

How do we define 'perfect' in a consumer-driven world where perfection is never really attained? There's always a newer, shinier thing coming down the line...

And would life have been simpler if Fairground Attraction hadn't thrown down this particular gauntlet in 1988?

What is Talking Cod: a survivor’s guide to middle age?

Three northern blokes talk about midlife and growing old disgracefully: the kind of things you want to say, but rarely ever do.

Hosts David Eccles, Phil Birchenall and Andy Hall explore how confronting life head-on - with all the crap it throws your way - makes you stronger, older, bolder and, of course, that little bit wiser.

We’ll share our own experiences and talk to friends about life’s ups and downs, what’s worked, and what definitely didn’t.


Frank, fearless, funny. Talking Cod.
