Gareth brings a very visual quiz to the first live edition of The Xennial Dome's Little Dome as he tackles 1997 - The year of the Candle In The Wind and the BBC balloon, plus the latest on the UK's attempt to break the land speed record. Meanwhile, Esyllt brings everyone down to earth with a bump by supplying us with a round-up of 2011's divorces and deaths. And it was all live at the Aberystwyth Comedy Festival.

Gareth Gwynn and Esyllt Sears reminisce about Halloween but, because we're talking 2014, it's the hottest Halloween on record. Plus - the rise and rise of the SNP and some stuff about washing lines in Treorchy. Not sure that last bit is particularly 2014-specific, now I type it out.

We briefly mention a documentary Gareth made for BBC Radio 4 back in 2014. Do you want to hear a nearly decade-old programme about a political issue which has changed an awful lot in the intervening years? I mean, it's here if you want to. A more up-to-date (and potentially even sillier) take on the same subject, also by Gareth but for BBC Radio Wales this time, is available here.

Two tech advancements and two TV shows (one massive, one not so much) defined October 2001. Plus, Gareth Gwynn and Esyllt Sears scoot through an edition of Q Magazine featuring an interview with Victoria Beckham in which readers get to ask the questions (Bad idea, it turns out).

Gareth Gwynn and Esyllt Sears reminisce about the return of EastEnders' legend Dirty Den Watts, the fall of Safeway and that time Gareth watched Pirates Of The Caribbean 24 times. At least. It all started to blur if I'm honest.

Safeway was doing self-scan as early as 1996. Here's an article all about it.
