I'm So Not Over It

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.

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.

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.

We always intended to come back to October 2002 to mop-up a few loose ends, but perhaps not quite a soon as this. It's a mini leftovers episode today as one of us was incapcable of speaking properly - so here's something we'd put to one side for a future "leftovers" episode - a dash through the key points surrounding black holes.

We go back to 2002 in this episode and discuss chess, something Esyllt Sears has a new found enthusiasm for. Turns out this year was a fairly big one for the whole chess scene. Meanwhile, if you want to find out what Gareth Gwynn was up to around the same time, he's given a run-down here.Get in touch on imsonotoverit@gmail.com or contact us on one of the following...BlueSky: @imsonotoveritInstagram: @imsonotoveritTikTok: @imsonotoveritTheme music by Alex_Kizenkov from Pixabay.I'm So Not Over It is A Mighty Bunny Production.

Bit of background atmos on this one as we come to you from the bar of the Chapter Arts Centre in Cardiff. Last time we were here we talked board games and Loaded and this one proved to be no different - but there's an extra dollop of October 1998 thrown in the mix. We'll be asking what was Sarah Ferguson's TV show all about? What did she write after Budgie The Helicopter? And why did a fight break out on Nicky Campbell's TV show? Gareth and Esyllt have some of the answers.The magazine archive discssed in the show can be found here.

If you're at Aberystwyth Comedy Festival this weekend don't forget to check out Esyllt Sears' shows: First Dates Motel - Live! With Esyllt Sears and Robin Morgan8 Out Of Ten Celts With Esyllt Sears, Mary Flanigan and Eleanor MortonJust squeezing this into our run of Septembers by the skin of our teeth (you'll find out why), it's September 1994 and Lidl comes to the UK... but do YOU know the differece between Lidl and Aldi? Esyllt Sears doesn't and Gareth Gwynn isn't convinced either, but he's thought of a way to monetise the difference. We also cover smoking on trains - which you think would be part of the discussion on 1994 but absolutely isn't.How do you tell the difference between Aldi and Lidl?

The perculiar show image will be explained when Esyllt Sears goes through some of the Challenges that Anneka Rice faced in her hit BBC (not ITV!) show Challege Anneka. It wasn't all Scout Huts and community centres, y'know. We also cover the spiritual prequel to Challenge Anneka, Treasure Hunt, and there's a whole thing about sardines which isn't about September 1989 at all, but will make you relieved that in the relentless march towards "Visualized Content", no-one is bothering with capturing smells.Get in touch on imsonotoverit@gmail.com or contact us on one of the following...BlueSky: @imsonotoveritInstagram: @imsonotoveritTikTok: @imsonotoverit Theme music by Alex_Kizenkov from Pixabay.I'm So Not Over It is A Mighty Bunny Production.

The Royle Family and Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? both started in September 1998 and completely redefined their respective TV genres - but you know about those already, which is why we won't bother talking about them much. Instead, Gareth Gwynn and Esyllt Sears cover a long forgotten Cilla Black vehicle and a Channel 4 documentary about modelling they pulled at the last minute, which are probably just as influental, but for all the wrong reasons.We also cover Geri's Union Jack dress, the Past Times business model and whether Gareth could pretend to be Esyllt's dad for cash. There's also a mention of the Berlin Wall thanks to Adam - he co-presents the podcast Lightly Used with Adam and Karen, which is all about quality charity shop finds - you can listen here.Get in touch on imsonotoverit@gmail.com or contact us on one of the following...BlueSky: @imsonotoveritInstagram: @imsonotoveritTikTok: @imsonotoverit Theme music by Alex_Kizenkov from Pixabay.I'm So Not Over It is A Mighty Bunny Production.

It's the first time we've ever done a "Summer Leftovers" special (and what Summer Leftovers are exactly, we'll leave to the show itself) but it's the usual drill - Gareth Gwynn and Esyllt Sears present bits and bobs which didn't fit into the weekly episodes. We cover iPods, Blackberries, Die Hard III and Past Times...But, isn't it ALL Past Times, really?Send us a message by email on imsonotoverit@gmail.com or through one of the following social media accounts...BlueSky: @imsonotoveritInstagram: @imsonotoveritTikTok: @imsonotoveritMusic by Alex_Kizenkov from Pixabay and Geoffrey Burch from Pixabay.I'm So Not Over It is A Mighty Bunny Production.

Gareth Gwynn is heading to Edinburgh! Having repeatedly told people he wasn't going, it turns out he'll be doing his show "Cyril" in the Hotel Indigo Edinburgh, York Place, EH1 3JD at 4pm on the 20th-24th August 2025. It's about history, but not history you remember (unless you are over 100 and lived in Gower). That's just about all the information we have right now, but anything else, he'll pop on his website, like a BBC TV show from 2001.As for this week? Well, we start with a peak behind the curtain. What happen when we start researching a month and think "this is a bit bleak?" Often, we ditch it and find another (which means, yes, one day there'll be a real tranche of tricksy ones to smash through - but we'll cross that miserable bridge when we get to it).But not today! Esyllt Sears saw the death of Elvis Presley on the list and decided to push on. Somehow we also cover 1970s clothing safety standards, what to do when your friend works for a Burger King and we ask the question, how distracted have you been by a strawberry?

Having a website? Jeez). We couldn't put out a message just saying that, so here's a clip from last week's show we'd put aside for the next "Leftovers" episode, all about August 2003.

We give the more newsy-news of August 2003 a wide berth this week, preferring to concentrate on the film releases of the month. Gareth Gwynn was working in a cinema, so should have the inside track on what was going on in movieland. However, what he actually discusses with Esyllt Sears is the millitary's preferences for sweets, prepping for a jazz-themed purge and Nicholas Parsons.What films do you remember from the summer of 2003?

Esyllt Sears and Gareth Gwynn deal with what (or, more accurately when) people were drinking in August 1995 as changes to pub opening times were introduced - meaning that, for the first time, you could stay in a pub all afternoon on a Sunday. We also tackle with the literature of the era, covering what you read in a caravan (see image) and the summer of 1995 in Reading.Send us a message on imsonotoverit@gmail.com or contact us on one of the following...BlueSky: @imsonotoveritInstagram: @imsonotoveritTikTok: @imsonotoveritTheme music by Alex_Kizenkov from Pixabay.Esyllt Sears is on BBC One Wales' Live From Merthyr Tydfil which is available on BBC iPlayer now.I'm So Not Over It is A Mighty Bunny Production.

It's July 1980 and the world looks to Moscow. Well, some of the world looks to Moscow because 66 countries chose to boycott that year's Olympic Games, but the ones who do turn up are treated to an obscene gesture by a Polish althlete, a cartoon with a somewhat confusing message and a genuinely moving closing ceremony. Gareth Gwynn talks Esyllt Sears through what is, technically, the cleanest Olympics of all time - before tackling MFI and Enterpriese Zones. Did your bookcase collapse?

We are joined by the star of the legendary third series of The Traitors - the absolutely fantastic CHARLOTTE BERMAN to talk Bop-it, being banished and an awful lot more besides.Yes, there are spoilers galore for that series (and, indeed, the very first series of Big Brother if you're really behind) but also plenty to enjoy if you've never seen an episode but wonder what life in the castle might be like.Unusually, she's the only one NOT doing a Welsh accent, but you can expect plenty of Traitors gossip (she kept a diary!) plus Charlotte's memories of The Dome, royal deaths (not the one you're expecting) and musicals - as well as her choice for our own museum dedicated to recent history, The Xennial Dome.Also, thanks very much to The Celtic Media Festival for finding us a room to record in. We asked if there was an empty room somewhere and were provided with a 100+ seat cinema and, honestly, that's where I want to record all our interview episodes from now on.You can follow Charlotte on Instagram at @charlotteberman91 and you can send us a message on imsonotoverit@gmail.com or contact us on one of the following...BlueSky: @imsonotoveritInstagram: @imsonotoveritTikTok: @imsonotoveritTheme music by Alex_Kizenkov from Pixabay.If you're in London, Gareth Gwynn is appearing with his show Cyril at the Camden Fringe from 28-30 July.

That's when £70,000 worth of pages from antique atlases were stolen from the National Library of Wales - but how did they do it? And how long does it take for anyone to notice a 17th Century map has gone missing? We also discuss the naming of the Ford Escort and, bringing it to the present day, the latest goings on in Cafe Diana. The article is here, should you be interested in the details. In some ways, his is a little bit of an unofficial "Part 1" since, next week, we'll be joined by Charlotte Berman from The Traitors where we'll touch upon July 2000 all over again with the launch of the first Big Brother UK - And who better to lift the lid on reality TV than someone who spent several weeks in The Traitors Castle?!
