I'm So Not Over It

By: Gareth Gwynn & Esyllt Sears
  • Summary

  • 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.

  • April 1991 (Big Break and Buses)
    Apr 15 2025

    Since changing the podcast name (RIP The Xennial Dome, 2021-24) we don't bother ourselves too much with generational differences on the show too much - But what happened to children's fiction about runaways? They were everywhere, right? Was it deemed dangerous to fill kid's heads with these stories? Did they go the way of smoking, catapaults and the nicknames of some of the Bash Street Kids? It's one of the things we consider as Esyllt Sears boils April 1991 down the essentials - The Greyhound Bus and Big Break.

  • April 1985 (New Coke)
    Apr 8 2025

    Tickets for I'm So Not Over It at Machynlleth Comedy Festival are available now!


    He's more of a Diet Coke man but, nevertheless, Gareth Gwynn is always happy to chat about New Coke - one of the biggest marketing and corporate blunders of the 1980s. Or was it? Was the decision to change the Coca-Cola formula and then change it back in under 80 days all part of some enormous, 4D Chess style strategy? Probably not. Plus, Esyllt Sears expresses her concerns about Fairy Liquid and Quality Street - on the off chance someone who listens can do something about it.


    There's an episode of Trouble At The Top all about the 1980s New Coke disaster, which you can watch here.
