I'm So Not Over It

Gareth Gwynn & Esyllt Sears

I'm So Not Over It is a comedy history podcast about things you'll remember from the first time round.  Each week comedy writers Gareth Gwynn and Esyllt Sears explore a different month in history – but with a brief stretching from the mid-70s to the present day. Basically, if you could see it, it would be in colour. It’s politics and pop culture for the eighties, nineties, noughties and beyond, delivered in 20 minute hits because we know what your attention span is like.    So if you remember Westlife but struggle with the Westland affair and if your favourite Aitken was a Tory MP or the one who co-wrote I Should Be So Lucky, we’ve got you covered in this ridiculous historical guide to the information age (even if that information came from a poorly recalled browse of Encarta ‘95).   These weekly episodes are interspersed with interviews with the people who lived through this period to understand whether it has had any bearing on the lives they lead today. The perfect listen, whether you’re Generation X, Gen X, Xennial, Millennial, Generation Z, Gen Z or whatever Pepsi wants to call you. I'm So Not Over It is brought to you by the team behind the award nominated Xennial Dome Podcast - Previous guests on that show include Nish Kumar, Jess Philips MP, Trevor & Simon, Isy Suttie and many more and those episodes can be found on the same podcast feed. I'm So Not Over It is a Mighty Bunny Production. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  1. St. David's Day with SIAN HARRIES

    St. David's Day with SIAN HARRIES

    It's St David's Day! (Or it is on March 1st, so it slightly depends when you listen to this episode). Either way, we've decided to do an episode that is unambiguously and unashamedly Welsh. I mean, they ALL are really, but this time we're going to lean into it - and who better to talk about all things Dewi Sant than the superb Welsh comedy writer SIAN HARRIES! Sian is the co-writer of the hit BBC One comedy-drama Death Valley, Channel 4's Man Down, is one of the writers and stars of BBC One Wales' Tourist Trap and the S4C sketch show O'r Diwedd. She also co-presents The Froth Podcast with Rhod Gilbert. Sian talks us through some of the most miserable meals and uncomfortable costumes you've ever heard about, as well as a blow-by-blow account of the secondary school Eisteddfod experience. There's plenty of picking apart the difference between English-language and Welsh-language Wales, as well as Sian's selection for The Xennial Dome, lots of relevant Winter Olympic discussion and memories of looking sad in a shoe shop at the death of Princess Diana. Sian mentions a school Eisteddfod performance with Elis James - Don't forget you can hear his episode, live from the London Welsh Centre, here.

    December 1978 (End Of Term Vibes)

    I Can't Get Over 2025, our review of the year for BBC Radio Wales, is available on BBC Sounds now! There's an end-of-term feel to this episode as we work our way through Marlon Brando's Superman contract and the (eventual) Christmas Day schedule of 1978. You can get in touch with the show on imsonotoverit@gmail.com or contact us on one of the following... BlueSky: @imsonotoverit Instagram: @imsonotoverit TikTok: @imsonotoverit One of the reasons we've been rather quiet recently is due to us putting together a look back at 2025 for BBC Radio Wales. I Can't Get Over 2025 (available on BBC Sounds now) covers everything from the launch of the Tourist Tax to the closure of Oakwood Park - plus interviews with guests who were on the ground for some of the year’s most memorable moments. These include Father Matt Roache-Saunders on attending the Pope’s funeral in Rome, Wales Women’s football team’s sports therapist Sara Gray on the excitement of the team’s European campaign and cyber security expert Rita from Cybervists on why you should add a special character to your password. If you're a fan of "I'm So Not Over It" you'll probably be a fan of this - to the extent that in some of the links, I had to edit around myself saying the name of the wrong show. Oops!

    December 1981 (Baby's First Christmas)

    I Can't Get Over 2025, our review of the year for BBC Radio Wales, is available on BBC Sounds now! We are back (after a slightly longer-than-expected absence) with a look back at the winter of 1981. A particularly harsh December inspires stories of driving in the snow - and if you're wondering what sort of vehicles you might have seen on the roads, The Queen was on hand to try and sell you a particular make and model, via her Christmas message.
