From falling off treadmills to getting a lifelong injury from an amusement arcade horse, the lives of Caroline Verdon and Annabelle Buckland are filled with a comedy of errors that will make you feel a lot happier about your own misdemeanors. Rather than never telling a living soul about the time Caroline accidentally created a murder scene at a teddy bear's picnic or the time Annabelle ended up naked on a wakeboard, they decided to tell anyone who'd listen. The pair met whilst working as presenters and producers at the radio station JACKfm in Oxfordshire and bonded over their cringeworthy lives. Whilst Caroline then got married, had kids, moved to Yorkshire and worked at Radio Aire in Leeds; Annabelle stayed in Oxford and moved in with her Gran. At the age of 30. Whether it's parenting, dating, marriage, work or just general disasters you're after, they have it covered. Funny, irreverent and not for little ears, At Least You Didn't will make you laugh, go wide eyed with awkwardness and generally just be downright grateful that you aren't Caroline or Annabelle. Released every Tuesday but if you feel like you need more reminders of how great your life is, then you can find them on Facebook and Instagram sharing photos and videos of their tales of woe. /atleastyoudidnt

No Caroline this week! She's under the weather, and surviving only on mashed potato and the glory of some good news in the shape of a delicious new podcast award...

Annabelle has been unintentionally harassing more unsuspecting members of the public, but surely can't be the only one this has happened to...?

Can you put a smile on Caroline's swollen, quincy-riddled face to help her on her way to recovery? Annabelle has some thoughts to inspire your weirdest video messages which we LOVE receiving.

See you next week - we hope - for business as usual (sorry in advance)!

This weeks episode is jam packed with awkward cringeworthy funny stories! Infant, it might be our best/worst yet!

First up, At least you didn't 3rd wheel your parents. That's right. Caroline went on a date with her Mum and Dad.

Then there's Annabelle who describes herself as a "passionate woman" but as we learn, what this means is she can't be trusted around men in uniform. And yes, that uniform does include the robes of The Clergy.

Then it's over to you and your stories, or more specifically Harry Radcliffe who made a Christmas party VERY memorable (for all the wrong reasons)

And finally, we end with "At least you didn't...send the worst drunken text message ever...to a member of an actual boyband"

It's all going on! If you'd like to appear in an episode of our podcast please do send us your "At least you didn't..." stories - you can find us on Instagram and Facebook @atleastyoudidn't

On this weeks episode we find out exactly how Caroline got herself an A* in her GCSE drama exams as she regales a story other people would be mortified by. To her it's just another standard day.

We find out how Annabelles fake enthusiasm got her into a very bizarre situation involving rosemary, a young mans fingers and a padlocked gate.

And we say At least you didn't have a row in b&q. And yes, we've all had rows in b&q but did your rows involve strangers having to get involved in order to keep the peace?!

Also we speak to the LOVELY Liz Million who, despite being an ACTUAL illustrator, managed to get herself into quite a pickle thanks to her drawing off a cartoon mouse! As ever if you have a story for Caroline and Annabelle, you can get in contact of their Facebook and Instagram pages - send them a DM to /atleastyoudidnt

Well you're in for a treat this week.

First up, find out what happened when Caroline managed to get stuck inside her own car. it involves door locks, speaker phones, being spherical and two poor poor passers by.

Then onto Annabelle. Not to be outdone, she made a huge mistake when someone left her in charge of a group of children. (why on earth did they give her that job?!)

And finally, we learn about how even the NSPCC can't help Caroline be a better parent. But goodness knows she is still trying...with the help of a dinosaur called Pantasaurus.

Also we hear from the brilliant Sarah Pritchard in Bristol who really went out of her way with not one but TWO fantastically awkward stories in one...both involving the joys of childbirth.
