Dr Nichola’s Second Opinion is the bonus podcast from What’s My Age Again? where science cuts through the hype.

In this episode, Dr Nichola Conlon takes a clear, evidence‑based look at testosterone after Joe Lycett raised the issue when he was on the WMAA sofas.

Dr Nic explains what it actually does, how it changes with age, and why “optimising” hormones isn’t always the answer.

From lifestyle factors to hormone therapy, she also answers your questions and explains what really matters for long‑term health and longevity.

And she hears why "T" is playing havoc with Joe's gym routine!

Tired, pissy, horny. In this episode, Joe Lycett admits he’s usually at least two of the three.

Everyone’s favourite comedy mummy is back to find out if the cells beneath his skin match the feelings in his heart.

Known for his sharp humour and bold political pranks, Joe brings joy to our screens but behind the laughs are stories of loss, anxiety, and run-ins with the law!

He opens up about the rollercoaster of new parenthood, the emotional toll of taking on governments, and why he finds women far more fascinating than men.

Whether he’s painting, gardening, or taking the moral high ground, Joe reveals what really restores his spirit and maybe, just maybe, knocks a few years off his biological age in the process.

Get ready to laugh, cry, and fall for him all over again.

In this bonus episode of Dr Nichola’s Second Opinion, What’s My Age Again? resident scientist Dr Nichola Conlon takes a deeper dive into the habits behind Jimmy Carr’s headline‑grabbing biological age result — and asks the bigger question: do fasting, saunas and cold plunges really slow ageing, or are they just biohacker hype?

Dr Nichola unpacks the real science behind “good stress” on the body, explaining how stepping outside our comfort zone can switch on powerful repair pathways linked to longevity.

From metabolic switching and cellular clean‑up, to heat shock proteins and dopamine boosts, this episode explores what’s actually happening under the skin and what’s worth trying for yourself.

Plus, Dr Nichola answers your questions on inflammation, and why more exercise isn’t always better when it comes to ageing well.
