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?
