Episode notes

Tickets for "The Xennial Dome" live at Aberyswyth Comedy Festival on Sunday 6th October are available here.

A Xennial is someone born between 1977 and 1985 - the tail end of Gen X and the older (or "geriatric", ugh) millennials.

 

The Xennial Dome is/was the podcast which looked back at the Xennial era - Presented by comedy writer Gareth Gwynn and stand-up Esyllt Sears, the show studied the month in xennial history, as well as interviewing notable xennials about their experiences growing up alongside the internet and leaving home just in time for a global financial crisis. Other history podcasts tackle battles and empires, legendary figures and tragic antiheroes and ours does too - but in the form of Northern Rock, 20th Century Fox and Pete Waterman.

 

This is the second of two Best Of episodes which draw a line under the podcast’s "Xennial Dome" era. We'll be back in October with a new name... But you'll be fine. If you coped with the Marathon, Jif and Opal Fruits rebrands, we’re more than confident you can navigate this.

Also, since recording the links for this, we have discovered that we have been nominated in the Best Comedy category at the Independent Podcast Awards - which is very exciting indeed. Thanks so much for downloading/listening* to the show over the last three years. Hell of a time to choose to rebrand the pod, mind...
