Standard Issue started as an online magazine in September 2014, becoming a podcast in 2017. But what are we? And why did legendary comedian Sarah Millican decide to found a magazine by women for women about everything?
The Standard Issue team – Mickey Noonan, Hannah Dunleavy, Jen Offord and the boss Sarah Millican – grabbed some time on Sarah's Late Bloomer tour to talk about why they do what they do, what's changed in the past ten years, the power and joy of women, and who's calling Take A Break's custard hotline.

How Patreon works: Patreon is a crowdfunding platform for creators. Artists, creators and, in our case, podcasters are paid by patrons (you, please) who give us an amount of cash you’re comfy with each month. And you can stop giving it whenever you choose. You’re in control.
​
Whichever tier you decide to join, you’ll be helping to fund a smart, sharp and funny magazine-style podcast for women interested in everything.
All women. No matter your age, background or where you live.
