And Then What?
by And Then What?
Once upon a time there were two women who liked stories, so they decided to start a podcast all about them. And Then What? is story time for adults. Amy Jones, a video producer and writer, and Becky Brynolf, charity person & script reader, hang out in Amy's back room and tell each other stories –true stories, anecdotes, urban legends, messed up folk tales, long jokes, things we saw on Reddit, things we've written ourselves, anything.

Who Would Win In A Fight: Becky Or Amy?
Don't call it a comeback, cause it's not one. Baby, demanding jobs and general pandemic malaise make any promises of regular episodes a bit mean, but we hope you enjoy this one. We will try to do more this year. In this episode Becky and Amy try to keep things positive! Optimistic! Happy! It's…

You Shouldn't Drink Your Own Poo
The clocks are forward and we are BACK. For this episode at least. We can't promise to record with any kind of regularity as before, but this feels like a good a time as any to catch up on everything that has happened in the last seven months. INCLUDING, Amy's birth story (prepare yourself), and...

Christina Aguilera's Discography
Soak it in, chaps. We'll do our best but episodes might be a little sporadic because AMY HAD A BABY!!! He's gorgeous and precious but doesn't sleep, and I think we can all agree Amy's sleep is more important than recording on the reg. We do have a DOOZY to leave you with in the meantime…

Now That's What I Call And Then What?: Volume 1
This week, we're just trying to make you laugh with a compilation of our favourite stories, from the very first joke we ever told on And Then What? to a story of some hungry seagulls which makes us cry laughing to this day. But with Amy and Becky both AWOL, there's a very special guest having to…

Bitches Do Love True Crime Podcasts
Listen up, BRACKIES. We finally did it. Four women, one microphone. two bottles of prosecco (soft drink for Amy) and a bumper episode with special guests Kate and Georgie from Nothing Rhymes With Murder. Literally only cut out ten seconds from this one, and that's only because someone coughed and...

It's a Weird Dick For a Dog to Have
Listen... the episode STARTS rough and depressing but if you stick with it, it gets GREAT. If you'd like to donate the the Macmillan fundraiser we mentioned at the beginning, this is the link: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/sheenapatelmemorial We're sure Sheena's family would really...

Eight Flavours Of Welsh

Clean Hands, Clean Holes
We've got an extra long one for you this week, which we can chalk up to not seeing each other for a few weeks and being hopped up on cheese and ice cream like a right pair of grown ups. This week Becky fulfils a listener request and the result is hilarious, and brings us an obscure fairy tale....

This Won't Become A Game Of Thrones Podcast
We promise this won't become a Game Of Thrones podcast but we can't promise we won't speculate about which Game Of Thrones we want to have sex with... #TeamGhost or #TeamDrogon? This week Becky's got a long one and Amy's got two short ones, but it's about the quality, not the volume, lads. Enjoy...

A Liver For A Kanye West Concert
This week's episode of And Then What? has Becky returning to her roots – as in, excellent accents.

Off Get Arse, On Get Donkey
TW: we talk about miscarriage a couple of times during this episode. You might find it helpful, or painful, or something else entirely, but we'd be remiss if we didn't tell you before you listen.
