Best aunties

The older women in my family have largely deserted me, and Judith& Jenny somewhat fill the void that they left behind

Laugh out loud

The best podcast ever, absolutely hilarious, thank you Jenny and Judith for sharing your lives with us all. Huge fan.

Huh?

Confused how / why American politics has become their topic..... Guess they become accustomed to viewing people as victims
DanaPodListener

Love it!

Funny, good-hearted, smart. How often do you get all of those in one place? I'm catching up on back episodes. Glad I found this!

Laugh out loud funny

My husband regularly walks into a room to find me seemingly laughing out loud at nothing since I’m listening with ear buds in. These ladies make the everyday things very funny. These days it’s wonderful th have something to give you a break from all the craziness in the world.

The British “Golden Girls”!

It’s 105 degrees in Austin, Texas today, but Judith and Jenny are giving me LIFE. This is the best podcast for battling the quarantine blues. Love y’all!

Judith

I’ve enjoyed “Older and Wider” from the beginning even though I’m an Even Older and Wider man in Durham (North Carolina, USA). I usually listen to the podcasts on my walks or in the car as I go about the tasks of Being Retired. However, during the last month, I’ve treasured the podcast even more, now that all the theaters and schools and shops are closed, and there’s nowhere to go in the car. It’s good to hear from Jenny and Judith on their respective experiences in sequestration. I always have a good laugh (well, many really), but it’s been especially comforting to know that, though our circumstances are different in specifics, there is an abiding similarity that we are all going through. And for 30 or so minutes I feel a kinship with people half a world away. (PS: I had to look up what a Wendy House is! I don’t think there is an American equivalent.)

O&W Is Simply Perfect

I love this podcast! It’s an oasis of laughter in an ever more sad and humorless world. Thanks so much for making me laugh out loud.

A glowing review from a very happy subscriber

I listen to a lot of podcasts & this one has quickly become a favorite. It's great to hear women my age have a laugh and a natter about everything : work, family, books, fashion, and banisters. I look forward to every episode! Thanks, Judith and Jenny!

Please make them longer!

I’m a 51 year old Irish woman now living in the US with my American husband. After many years abroad we moved to the Midwest and I feel like quite the outsider and just “old”. No Botox, lots of wrinkles and happily getting “older” and definitely “wider” with my fine thing of a husband. Love the honesty and laughs with this podcast. Wish you would make the longer to cover all the topics you run out of time to share!

Giggle with the girls

I have loved Jenny Eclair and her acerbic wit for many years . I’m a huge podcast fan and thought I’d try this out and it’s really good fun. Her and Judith are hysterical together. Can’t wait to hear how the wedding goes with those peacock feathers 🤣
