Comedian Penny Ashton is on a voyage of discovery into the hormonal hocus pocus of menopause.

A series of frank and funny interviews all about what to expect, when expecting the change. Warning: salty language, and not just from the night sweats. Season Three and beyond is opening up wider to include women and trans individuals of all ages and bodily functionings.

The Divinely Perfect Destiny of Brilliant Anna Fifield
This week Penny is welcoming current Dominion Post and Stuff Wellington editor Anna Fifield, who moved back to NZ in 2020 after a glittering 20 year career as a globe-trotting foreign correspondent. She is also the author of the critically acclaimed biography of the North Korean leader; The Great Successor: The Divinely Perfect Destiny of Brilliant Comrade Kim Jong Un.
Despite fearlessly go live on Facebook in North Korea and brushing shoulders with the Obamas in Washington, Anna confessed to be nervous to finally reveal in public the story of her own early menopause. They chatted about cronification, her son's new found love of living in NZ and the reactions she got for putting the provocative word cunt on the front page of the Dominion Post. As you do.
