Nobody Panic

If you or anyone you know is running the London marathon (or any marathon) and would like to feel much better about your training: Tessa ran two marathons, one without much training and one without any. She didn’t die, she was quite angry at herself the second time, but this is crucial listening if you’re fed up of high performance sports podcasts and wish to listen to someone who has gone through many people’s (Stevie‘s) worst nightmare and come out the other side.Subscribe to the Nobody Panic Patreon at patreon.com/nobodypanicWant to support Nobody Panic?

Morning! Bored of toast? Stuck in a cereal rut? Constantly getting overwhelmed and eating one single mini egg (this may or may not be Tessa’s experience)?

Today's episode is brought to you by Stevie, Tessa and the amazing Fi - a 'spacecraft thermal engineer'(!), podcast listener, and Excel champion, who offers her exceptional talents and guidance to two gals terrified of spreadsheets. A beginner's guide to Excel for the chronically afraid. A genuinely helpful episode (we think).  Subscribe to the Nobody Panic Patreon at patreon.com/nobodypanicWant to support Nobody Panic?

Stevie got a massage and loved it. Tessa gets them all the time for her stressed body. Together they offer advice if you’re thinking about going for the first time and, quite frankly, get far too worried about how to tell if your masseuse is going to give you a “happy ending” or not.

Dear Diary, today Stevie and Tessa did an amazing podcast on journalling. It was inspired by a listener suggestion, and the aforementioned listener wrote several detailed questions which they worked through in order and found to be a particularly helpful structure. They discussed bullet journalling, whether you need a nice notebook, Tessa's fears over being arrested for a murder she did not commit, and what pen to use.

An absolutely fascinating episode with comedian Stuart Laws, the leading expert on his own vasectomy. Let's get right down to brass tacks and learn the hows, the whys, the whens, the 'sorry, what?!'s and the 'gosh, what's that?'s. Truly illuminating.Find Stuart on Twitter: @thisstuartlaws, Instagram: @stuartlawscomedy and TikTok: @stuartlawscomedyWatch Stuart's comedy special 'Stuart Laws Is All In' hereSubscribe to the Nobody Panic Patreon at patreon.com/nobodypanicWant to support Nobody Panic?

Oooooh look at these fancy people with their fancy manicures! Oh la de dah! Stevie and Tessa have got into manicures. Sure, this episode gets off to a rocky start when they spend the first twenty minutes Googling 'what is Shellac?' but then they really get into their stride and this one's actually quite informative.

After recording part 1, Stevie was inspired to freeze her eggs and, perhaps unsurprisingly if you’ve heard Stevie talk about things on the podcast before, found the whole thing emotionally overwhelming.
