Explore every episode of the podcast Beyond Swarla

It's our first episode - and boy can't you tell.

You'll have to forgive us, we're amateurs - but what we lack in skills we make up for in enthusiasm and an amazing guest.

Join us as we discuss all things Swarla, those photos, bringing up baby and the upcoming nuptials.

Plus we hear from Samenda, a Swarla fan with a big story to tell.

Join me for Episode 2 where I talk about Swarla (obviously), and the huge dose of baby love which we all seem to have come down with. Carla is scared, Lisa is besotted and Sally is...well...Sally.

We also hear from another fan, Lara, who shares her story with us. As last time, adult themes, please listen for content warnings.

Join me for Episode 3 where I talk about Swarla, who is bringing up baby, and who is sending out the invitations?! There's a round up of Corrie generally and I talk to Elle who, in her line of work, has many stories to tell but her own one is the most important.

Watch out for content warnings before the interview and if you are squeamish - maybe avoid 1:24:00 to 1:25:30

Join Elle and I as we discuss all things Swarla, Roy's new wardrobe and THAT incredible episode dedicated to Todd's story.

We get very excited about a certain wedding, have a giveaway to...well...give away and we've changed our theme music - we think it's rather jaunty.

The invites are out, Lisa is divorced and the wedding looms, as does disaster, and near disaster, but never fear - my new co host, Elle, and I are here to talk all things Swarla and Corrie... and Kirsty joins me for a chat about another amazing couple - Sukeve - and we discuss how it's OK to ship two couples at the same time!

What a week! Elle and I are joined by special guest Jo to talk all about Swarla's special day.

WE also say bye bye baby, discuss vow and hen do havoc and everything wedding - you may never look at crumpets in the same way again

....and apparently there's a murder - who knew!!

There’s been a murder!  Apologies in advance for our terrible accents but we’re discussing the newly married DS Connor-Swain, back at work and bossing it, and who we think might have done the dirty to Theo (spoiler, it may be a nonagenarian)

And as it’s Mental Health Awareness month, we have a special story from Elang who, despite a traumatic past leading to mental health issues, finds coping strategies and remains very positive.

Please listen for content warnings.

DS Connor-Swain is back and doesn't she look great doing it, from insulting Kit at every opportunity to taking down a child abuser, and arresting students on the run , we wax lyrical about our favourite soap copper and her new wife, the inimitable Queen of the Cobbles.

Plus we catch up on all the goings on on the street and, to round off Mental Health Awareness Month, we listen to the story of Hazell, who found herself in an long term abusive marriage, which was news to her!

Join us for the last episode of Series 1, Beyond Swarla - On The Cobbles

There’s a feta filcher on the loose, as well as a killer, we SIT DOWN and talk Buzz Balls and pickled eggs and we visit the cobbles!! And we absolutely don’t mention Peter…well…ok… maybe a bit

TW/SA During spoilers we talk about Emmerdale…

Welcome to Soap Week!

And welcome to Series 2 Episode 1 of Beyond Swarla.  CorrieDale: 6 Months on…where we valiantly try to summarise the last six months of the CorrieDale storylines, we talk about the last 4 weeks of Coronation Street, THAT kiss and we try to manifest a very famous listener.

We are madder than ever, our acting and accents have not improved but we are glad to be back, and I think, I THINK we were right about one thing!

Get voting on the @Inside Soap awards, and look out for more content from us during soap week…starting this evening – you won’t be disappointed…well you may be disappointed but we hope not!

With sincere apologies to Newcastle, come and join the mayhem.

Welcome to Soap Week!...

...And to our series of shorts especially for the occasion

Today we talk about our earliest memories of soaps, what soaps we watch and have watched and our fandom collection...

We're continuing our mini-casts with Top Tier Tuesday, talking favourite characters and families, underrated characters and ultimate soap legends.

Join in on X TikTok or Instagram and let us know yours!

Day three of Soap week and we continue our mini-casts. Today we chat about the man himself, our favourite cast member (no spoilers but you can probably guess!) behind the scenes, writers and creators and best acting performance. We also discuss which soap legends we should celebrate.

Enjoy!

Join us for our fourth 'mini cast' as we talk about our favourite era of soap, the greatest storyline ever (we struggled!) the most unforgettable episode and which year was 'peak' soap. It was harder than you'd think, this one!!

Thanks for joining us!

Caz and Elle x

Join us as we chat all things 'storyline'

The drama, the angst, the laughter, the tears, the lunacy...but that's just us.

It's Storyline Saturday!!

Welcome to Funny Friday where we find the comedy in soaps (not that hard) and hot tubs get a bad rep!

We talk funniest soap moment, ridiculous storylines (surely not), memes and the campest scene ever!

And it's FRIDAY - YAY!!!

Enjoy

We prove, categorically, once again, that we can not speculate for toffee but we did have fun trying

That was the week that was, we are off to lie in a darkened room

Thanks for joining us, and to Conversation Street Podcast for the prompts.

This week’s episode is an emotional rollercoaster as Betsy suffers a stroke, leaving everyone reeling and unsure how to process what has happened, Dylan is struggling to face the reality of the situation, and we admit we did not cope well at all.

Meanwhile Mary is on the warpath, determined to make her feelings known, suspicions grow around Christina’s bladder and Ross continues to cause trouble…but at least Joseph doesn’t have to go to Weathy High…

We also talk to Dawn, who tells us her story

Content Warnings: For discussions around Non-Fatal Strangulation, Stroke and Domestic Violence (within the interview)

Join Jo and Caz (Elle is off trying to learn how to surf) as we talk all things Coronation Street. Swarla Fridays are back, the superhero edition, the wives are wife-ing HARD, and the police are policing harder…Lisa backed Sarah into a corner (in a professional capacity of course) and Betsy came home.

We also talked to Rhianna in June about her Let’s Talk Corrie channel, so join us for that too! We made predictions (all of which turned out to be tragically incorrect) but it’s still a bit of a laugh.
