Nobody Panic is going on a brief hiatus and Tessa can't stop crying every time it's discussed, so Stevie and Tessa deep dive into how to let someone down (even if you're not actually letting them down, but you just FEEL like you are). We'll be back soon everyone! In the meantime, why not check out our frankly outrageously extensive back catalogue?

Think you're not creative? You are. Every human being is creative in some way! Tessa has been doing The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron and Stevie has been doing Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert and they both discuss how to get the creative juices flowing in any field. Metaphysical field, you don't need to be sat in a meadow. Subscribe to the Nobody Panic Patreon at patreon.com/nobodypanic Want to support Nobody Panic? You can make a one-off donation at...

Stevie realises she has fundamentally misunderstood the concept of the fridge dial in this rollercoaster of a journey through organising your fridge. She thought this would be quite straightforward but, as ever, it turns into an emotional excavation of the Self (and whether you should put ketchup in the cupboard or not).

Foodie, chef, author of the Little Library cookbooks and with her debut novel 'Experienced' out in June, Kate comes on to discuss how to make dinners for one joyful, varied and ultimately EASY. Tessa discovers that her Philadelphia cheese and pasta dish (eaten out of a pan) has merit.  Kate's debut novel 'Experienced' is out 6 June 2024 and is available to pre-order now. Kate's cookbooks including 'The Little Library Cookbook' are available to buy now. Head to...

Tessa's getting married! She's also planning a proper wedding with generators and a marquee, so has lots of advice for anyone about to wade into the admin hell. And also has inadvertently set up an entire company purely to buy plates a tiny bit cheaper. Maybe don't follow that piece of advice. Or do? Who knows.

Friends having babies? Not sure what to take round when you go to meet the new baby? Stevie put a callout on Instagram and there was a real consistency with the answers. In fact there's essentially only one thing new mums want and let us tell you, it's not an ornate Victorian hot air balloon (this is what Tessa took round to her friend).

You’d think this was fairly straightforward, so why is it so hard to admit defeat? Why do we use words like “admit defeat” when discussing a book? The book doesn’t know you’re not reading it! Stevie had these epiphanies recently, after pretending to read Crime and Punishment for circa 25 years, and Tessa is eager to learn.

By request, Stevie and Tessa discover what the triangle symbol means and discuss what the drawers mean.

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.

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)? Stevie introduces Tessa to the concept of an egg and to be honest it all just spirals from there.  Subscribe to the Nobody Panic Patreon at patreon.com/nobodypanic Want to support Nobody Panic?

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.

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.

Stevie brings a lot to the (bedside) table in today's existential crisis/light-hearted advice podcast. What is a bedside table?

One of the most chaotic episodes ever recorded in the history of Nobody Panic. Tessa wanted to do a live tax return, Stevie was too tired to say “I dunno maybe we should get an expert in?” and so the result is very very funny. Will you learn anything about tax?
