After Rambling Through All That...

by Ryan Finch & Samantha Jones

A long-form conversational podcast where a cute AF, love-drunk British couple talk about their lives, fun stories, big ideas, etc. Anything at all really. And, look, it's probably gonna be super duper rambly. Because that's not a brand. It's a lifestyle. (Although we will of course have branded merch coming out in the first quarter of 2025) Basically, it'll be sometimes serious, sometimes silly, and everything in between! We are ARTATpodcast on Twitter, Instagram, etc - come follow us! If you have any comments or feedback, feel free to email us at ARTATpodcast [AT] gmail.comYou can get our podcast directly at https://artatpodcast.com And you can come find us individually at: https://samrosey.com & https://ryanfinchwrites.com[Up until Ep 37, this podcast was formerly known as: AFTER READING THIS AND THAT. And this was essentially the previous-name podcast description: we discuss the thought-provoking things we've read online!]

Episodes

  1. Ep 48 - Back from hiatus! Trying to get a book published, new obsessions & The Batman spoilercast

    I was going to say sorry about how long this ep ended up being, but then I remembered one of the core tenets of self-esteem building I was taught by the supportive brotherhood at /r/bigdickproblems: "Never Apologize For Your Length". Truly, words to live by. Also, The Batman spoilercast begins at...

  2. Ep 47 - Depression, Writing, Supreme Court battle, Trump vs. Biden debate, & MORE!

    The thing about being depressed when you sit down to record a podcast is... you end up talking about depression. Who'd have thunk it?

  3. Ep 46 - Lost, Midnight Sun, & We Dole Out Assorted Life Advice to Strangers

    I'm not gonna sugar-coat it: I think doing this ep broke my brain. 'Cause the migraine I had afterwards was about as fun as firecrackers exploding unkindly behind my eyes. Do you see the sacrifices we make for you, dear listener?

  4. Ep 45 - Live from Lockdown!

    We valiantly maintain a sense of normalcy during this strange/frightening time by rambling for 4 hours once again. It's truly an honour that you look to us to be your rock. Hopefully we can live up to all the nice things you say in your fan letters (lol)

  5. Ep 44 - Trump Impeachment, Recent Movies, & Should Allegations Be Included in Celebrity Obituaries?

    Oooh, only one month between eps? Gosh, I'm not saying we deserve an award or whatever. But if you DO have some shiny punctuality-trophy lying around?... Well, listen, I ain't exactly gonna be so impolite as to refuse it. Hand it over! Time's a'wasting!

  6. Ep 43 - Hey! You Can't Have Dessert Until You Finish All Your Questions!

    This ep is a big boy, oh my! "Kind of like a chubby Russian doll, you open it and there's another Russian doll, just like there's another question after another question after another question." - Samantha

  7. Ep 42 - 3yr Anniversary! Questions, Questions, Questions! Get 'em While They're Hot and Fresh!

    So, we're three years old now. Pretty wild. OMG, that means we could legally drive in some places. And tha- what? I said 'some'! Like, uhh, international waters... And the moon! Didn't think about that, huh smart-ass?! (Please don't unsubscribe :'c )

  8. Ep 41 - Ross & Rachel 'On a Break' debate, Anti-Vaxxers, Botham Jean case, Stand Your Ground laws

    I have absolutely zero qualms about declaring that this episode right here easily ranks - really, without question - among the forty-one best episodes we've ever made. I mean, seriously! Never been more sure of anything in my life.

  9. Ep 40 - Miscellaneous Silliness, MCU Spoilercast, A Discovery of Witches

    Beware, we enter a VERY spoiler-filled wilderness. Mostly for Endgame and Far From Home, but other MCU stuff too. I'm only telling you this because I care about you. And I want the best for you. Your mother and I both feel this way, believe me.

  10. Ep 39 - Hospital Visits, Pride Month, Make-out Parties, Video Game Movies & Sadly Cancelled TV Shows

    We're still a little depressed. Send us homemade brownies to our PO box. Pretty please <3 - TIMESTAMPS IN TITLE ORDER: (29:48) (1:06:26) (1:24:48) (2:40:42)

  11. Ep 38 - Festivals & Burning Man, Name-Nerds, We Play 'Would You Rather?' & It Gets Heated!

    This ep only comes in two configurations: unapologetically XXL or GTFO. And like the weird ancient dude tells Indy when he's impromptu chalice-shopping, "choose wisely." Heed that, because we too don't offer refunds. TIMESTAMPS: (17:21) (59:21) (1:33:21)

  12. Ep 37 - Self-Promotion/Getting Paid For Making Content, Favourite Foods Discontinued & Our Birthdays

    New name, who dis?... TIMESTAMPS IN TITLE ORDER: (1:15:28) (1:46:00) (3:05:45)

  13. Ep 36 - Changing our Podcast Name!, Starting a Youtube Channel & Blog, SEX AND THE CITY Deep-dive

    So... we'll soon bear a new name. And, look, I know change is hard. But the only way to get over that is by changing it. Which, sure, as aforementioned, will be hard. Anyhow, I hope this helped. TIMESTAMPS IN TITLE ORDER: (21:34) (38:39) (1:17:06)

  14. Ep 35 - Sexual Dynamics in Older TV Shows/Movies, Messages in Bottles, Making New Friends Sucks

    Bet you thought we were dead, huh? Ha, joke's on you! We're actually just *very* slowly dying. Hmm. Wait... Anyway, we were loopy AF during this ep, which may warm your heart or, uh, colden your spleen. Timestamps in title order: (13:05) (38:22) (57:54)

  15. Ep 34 - Our London Trip & We Answer EVEN More Questions, Because Why The Hell Not?

    There are, uh, moments in this ep I'll be bringing up during our intensive tri-weekly couples therapy. I'll let you figure out which ones I mean... Anyway, timestamps: London (45:15) & Qs (2:07:36)

  16. Ep 33 - 2yr Anniversary Show! We Answer Tons More Questions! We TOTALLY Bare Our Souls, We Swear!

    We somehow manage to up our silliness quotient this ep. I truly don't know how we do it. We're just real go-getters, I suppose. So... we tell our mouse-hunt story (13:48) and Samantha shamelessly ambushes me with questions! (1:11:08)

  17. Ep 32 - Bested by a Giant Wasp, Hypocrisy in the MeToo Movement? & Is 'Reverse Racism' a Real Thing?

    I have nothing pithy to say here. Still, the space must be used. The characters must be typed. Why? We do not know. How? With a keyboard, I guess. In other news, here's the title-order timestamps: (1:11:43) (1:36:24) (2:33:47)

  18. Ep 31 - Toys/Board Games, Christmas, Random Silliness, Music, Is Spirituality & Religion Harmless?

    We naively thought our heatwave had departed. But I just checked the forecast and now my spinal fluid is preemptively boiling. Hopefully that stuff isn't *too* important... Here's some timestamps, in title order: (3:08) (12:25) (48:20) (1:31:20) (1:51:19)

  19. Ep 30 - Comedy & Sitcoms, Cats or Dogs?, Making Content, True-Crime Docs, Fandom Love

  20. Ep 29 - Marriage & Pre-nups, Squirrel Murder, Should You Tip?, & Fascination with Serial Killers

  21. Ep 28 - Haircut Anxiety, We Both Got Sick!, Birthday Angst, Does Canon Matter? & Mind-reading Tech

    How weird would it be if what we were 'reading' was YOUR tea leaves? Like, I don't know, just a thought. Anyway, you time-stamp fiend, here's all you really wanted! In ep title order: (11:09) (52:31) (1:33:40) (2:15:25) (2:39:21)

  22. Ep 27 - People Being Dicks, Sex Ed & Is Porn Damaging Young People?

    There's a lot of premium quality, locally sourced rambling in this ep. And, look, hopefully you're libertarian enough to appreciate some free-association. Anyway, we discuss people being total dicks, & sex ed/porn's effect on teenagers (1:51:21)

  23. Ep 26 - Live Music Stories, Our Apartment Building Flooded & The Decline of Smoking and Alcohol

  24. Ep 25 - Getting Sick at Christmas, Recounting Our Paris Trip, & Our First VR Experience!

  27. Ep 22 - 1yr Anniversary Show! We Answer Mucho Fun Questions, Come Get to Know Us!

    This ep is *so* rad that THE MAN almost didn't let us publish it. Good thing THE MAN is partial to cookies. We discuss autograph hunting, PoppyCat's passing, if cameraphone overuse is wise (1:30:58) & if those offended by fiction get to veto it (2:29:57)

  30. Ep 19 - Attending Fan Conventions, Movies, & We Answer (Most of) The 36 Questions That Lead to Love

    In the psychosphere, there are two schools of thought about this episode. Either it endearingly over-delivers on content or it's obnoxiously long. But we're 2cool4school(s), so, like, whatevs. We discuss fan cons, movies & answer mucho questions (1:07:44)
