We had an idea - and we made it. This was the first incarnation of The Après podcast - a pilot episode recorded at The Custard Factory in Birmingham, pre-covid when everything was done in person.

There was no one better to kick things off than Jeremy Sladen, in an episode that has NEVER BEEN HEARD before.

The format has morphed somewhat over the years. In this pilot episode, we were trying to get the likes of the BBC on board (or someone else with money). They didn’t of course, which in the long run worked out for the best. We quickly worked out that what we loved most about making the podcast was having a reason to get together once a week, have a chat and hopefully meet some likeminded people with something interesting to say.

The Après will likely change again, we’re always up for mixing things up and trying new things, but this will always be where and how it started. Enjoy!
