Midlife Uncensored
Midlife Uncensored-Real Life Discussions from Over the Hillis the no-holds-barred podcast you didn’t know you needed. Hosted by Joel Poppert, aka Poppy—the friendly Sasquatch with an epic beard—and his fiery co-host, Emanuela Messineo, aka E, this show unapologetically dives into the chaos, comedy, and WTF moments of midlife. If you’re 35-55 and ready to embrace the rollercoaster of aging, this podcast is your new home base.
Poppy and E tackle everything from modern dating disasters in the hilarious sub-series The Love Laugh Lounge (the “festivus” of dating) to real-life shit like divorce, mental breakdowns, balding, sagging tits, and figuring out how to parent while still figuring yourself out and maybe dealing with an unhinged ex. With a blend of interview episodes and no-expert-needed banter (except when we bring on experts), these two cut through the BS and get real about midlife—no filters, no sugarcoating, just pure, unfiltered truth with a heavy dose of humor. Expect raw, relatable stories, unfiltered guidance, tough love, easy happiness, and a few episodes where the comedy comes from alcohol infused banter, because who give a fuck, right?
Whether you’re dealing with the joys of aging, trying to keep your sanity while raising kids, or attempting to find love in a sea of idiots, Midlife Uncensored has your back. Expect a few F-bombs, some belly laughs, and a whole lot of honesty as Poppy and E rip the band-aid off midlife and give you permission to thrive in this beautifully messy chapter. It's not just about surviving midlife—it's about unfucking it and owning it! This is your community; we are in it together!

The Conversations that Divide Us: Egos, Politics, Religion, Gender Roles
Welcome to episode 49 of Midlife Uncensored! We’re nearly a year into this wild ride, and for this episode, we’re bringing back one of our favorite guests, Uche, for a no-filter conversation that started with the male ego… but went off the rails and way deeper than any of us expected.
We dive into everything from the shifting dynamics between men and women, the confusion around traditional roles, the impact of social media on relationships, and the ripple effects of ego—both fragile and inflated. We touch on dating, chivalry, modern masculinity, and how society's extremes are pushing men and women further apart. Of course, it wouldn’t be Midlife Uncensored without some hilarious detours into booty hole maintenance, political rants and to top it off a discussion about religion.
This one’s raw, real, and packed with the kind of unfiltered truth that makes Midlife Uncensored what it is. So grab a drink, brace yourself, and jump into this epic discussion that might just challenge the way you think about relationships, respect, and the fine line between confidence and arrogance. We certainly went off the rails in this episode and enjoyed every minute of it!
