Comedy superstar and television personality Katherine Ryan is set to launch her brand-new podcast, What’s My Age Again on 22nd April.

A refreshing and humorous take on ageing, wellness, and self-discovery.

The podcast features interviews with some of the UK’s most famous faces, who have all undergone a blood test to determine an accurate reflection of their biological age, as opposed to their chronological age. The results – often surprising, sometimes shocking – lead to hilarious and thought-provoking discussions about how we age, what it really means to “feel your age,” are they afraid of growing old, the pros and cons of ageing and the quirky habits they may have in the pursuit of health and longevity…

Each week, Katherine and her guests are also joined by Dr Nichola Conlon. A specialist in longevity and cellular ageing, Nicola brings her scientific know-how to interpret the test results and provide listeners with the latest research in the field.

Katherine Ryan says: ‘In a beauty-obsessed society that rewards aesthetic youth, what about the far more impactful biological vitality? As a pretty clean-living autoimmune disease sufferer with loads of inflammation, I’m excited to be investigating cutting-edge technology that tests glycolic age with a mix of my celebrity friends. Are they biologically older or younger than they think they are? What can we all be doing differently to extend our lives? Who will be willing to give me their actual blood for a podcast?’

The first episode sees Irish comedian and podcaster Joanne McNally taking the test; whilst future guests include Olivia Attwood, Adam Buxton, Jill Scott, Bryony Gordon, Dame Sheila Hancock, Sophie Ellis Bextor, Alastair Campbell and Dame Denise Lewis.

Lucie Cave, Bauer Media Audio’s Chief Creative Officer said: ‘We are absolutely thrilled to welcome What’s My Age Again? to our podcast family. Katherine has always had a unique ability to blend humour with meaningful conversation, and this podcast takes that to a whole new level. The concept of measuring glycolic age rather than biological age is ground breaking, and with Katherine’s wit and her celebrity guests, we believe it will be an engaging, entertaining, and educational experience for listeners. It’s truly a perfect match, and I know listeners are going to love this innovative new show.’

Katherine Ryan’s What’s My Age Again? will be part of the Bauer Media Audio stable of podcasts, which includes Olivia Attwood’s So Wrong It’s Right, Joanna Lumley and the Maestro, Gemma Atkinson’s The Overshare, GK Barry’s The Turnout, and The Empire Podcast.

What’s My Age Again? was created and produced by Henrietta Harrison.

The Rayo Original podcast is set to premiere on all major platforms, including Rayo, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Google Podcasts, on April 22, 2025. You can subscribe now to catch the first episode. Katherine Ryan’s What’s My Age Again? is a must-listen for anyone curious about ageing, health, and how science can provide new ways of understanding ourselves – all wrapped up in Katherine Ryan’s unique comedic style.
