Chancers

Fertility - it's a hot topic for a lot of people in their 30s and let's face it an emotive one too. In this episode Anna and Paddy chat about their own feelings on the subject, share insights and polls from their audience and bring their usual craic to proceedings. To help them get to grips with the topic, they're joined by Caitriona McPartlin, CEO of ReproMed who offers some wisdom and experience to our Chancers.

Paddy's all set with his city penthouse but Anna's starting to worry about getting on the property ladder. To really reinforce the cold hard reality of lending terms for comedians and reality TV stars, they're joined by Darragh Nolan of askpaul.com who shares some sage advice for our Chancers. Can he wean Paddy off his tapping addiction?

Paddy and Anna ponder whether Disney has ruined their expectations of love but find themselves questioning whether the expectations it gave them about themselves that is really the problem. To tackle the issue in more detail, they're joined by Paul and Erika of the That Aged Well podcast. Together they hilariously pick apart issues of gender bias, racism and lack of representation in their much-loved childhood favourites.

They’re on all the apps (one of them has even done all of the dating shows) but Paddy Smyth and Anna Clifford are single, thirty-something, and wondering if life and security has somehow passed them by? In this very special teaser episode of Chancers, Anna and Paddy get to grips with the world of love and chat to expert Mairéad Loughman (LoveHQ.ie) in the hopes of increasing their chances on the dating scene.

A podcast for people who feel that they’re chancing their arm at life, when everyone around them has it all figured out. If you’re the person sending Wagatha Christy memes to your Whatsapp group and getting baby pictures in return – then pay attention. They’re on all the apps (one of them has been on all of the dating shows) but Paddy Smyth and Anna Clifford are single, thirty-something, and wondering if life and security has somehow passed them by. Are they putting the “sting” in “coasting” or should they give themselves a break? Each week the pair share their reflections on the topic in hand and then they bring in an expert to advise them (and their listeners) on how to "adult" better. Think of it as self-help for people who can’t, or won’t, help themselves. After all, they’re happy being Chancers but they don’t want to miss their chance.
