About Beyond Swarla

The PodcastBeyond Swarla is inspired by the Coronation Street pairing of Carla Connor and Lisa Swain (Swarla to its fans). Yes, it's television - and yes, it absolutely is soap - but the dynamics it portrays are very real and so are the experiences of the people watching.We want this to feel meaningful rather than just about the fandom, so the podcast explores the real-life relationship themes that the show brings to the screen - by using the fictional experiences seen on the show as a springboard to talk to real people about their own lived experiences.It's about acknowledging the behaviours and the stories that many people see on the soap, that reflects their own lives - and creating a safe space to talk about them openly.Your HostsCarianne hails from deepest darkest Middle England, although she was born and bred in London. She worked in Human Resources for 3 decades before deciding to jack it all in and become a dog walker. Prone to emotional outbursts and too much swearing, she is a total fangirl with nothing on her mind but outrageously beautiful and talented queer women. Hailing from the front line rather than Middle England, Elle is a Police Sergeant with nearly 20 years experience keeping the peace - though nothing could prepare them for the emotional chaos of Swarla. A little bit random, with a big heart and a habit of getting slightly too invested, they bring sharp observations, unexpected tangents, dry humour, and a uniquely wired perspective that keeps things interesting.

Elang's Story

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.

You're a hero - Bonus episode

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.

Heated Rivalry - not that one

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!

Elle's Story

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

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
