Jen Brister & Maureen Younger: Recent Episodes
Jen Brister & Maureen Younger
It's the final Droughtlander of this season! Boo! Hissss! Ok, no one cares, but Jen and Maureen once again roll their sleeves up and get into the nitty gritty of episode 12. I think it's fair to say that Jen is relieved it's all over. Possibly, you are too.
In the penultimate episode of this season of Droughtlander, Maureen and Jen delve into the nooks and crannies of season 5 episode 11. I'd like to tell you that they reach some kind of epiphany, or break new ground with their insight, but they don't. It's the same old rambling bollocks. Enjoy!
Ok, so here's the second half of what should have been one podcast. In a way it's a relief it's been split into two because the idea of this podcast being over an hour makes my teeth itch. This episode includes more appalling production values as the two comics doggedly continue to watch Outlander and then wang on about it.
Just when you thought the production values of this podcast couldn't get ANY WORSE Maureen and Jen are here to surprise you with just how low they can go. Anyway, it's the usual guff where they delve into another exciting episode of Outlander. Fun times.
Better late than never. Maureen and Jen are back once again dissecting the latest episodes of Outlander with forensic intensity. That may be over stating it somewhat, Jen's still watching it and Maureen is trying to find something positive about the series. Tune in if you have literally nothing better to do with your life. And let's face it, at the moment you probably don't.
Another exciting episode awaits you. This time Maureen and Jen discuss episodes 5 & 6 of Series 5 and Jen does her best not to pass out with boredom.... more of the same basically.
Not even the Corona Virus can stop these two women producing content that no one really wants. Especially now they've discovered they can record remotely on ZOOM! So here we have ANOTHER episode of Droughtlander the not even close to being a hit podcast. This time Maureen and Jen half heartedly delved into eps 3 & 4 of series 5. Lets see if they make it to the end of the series, because judging by Jen's attitude it's not looking good....
How are you? Hopefully you're doing ok in these uncertain times. Maureen and Jen haven't been able to meet due to the GLOBAL PANDEMIC, nothing serious... so here's a little treat for you. A BONUS EPISODE recorded back in November that Jen never got round to uploading. So here it is. It makes no reference to Corona virus or the fact that we are all living in isolation so if anything it's a bit of light relief. Have listen why don't you? Lord knows, we all have A LOT more time on our hands...
Now, go away and wash your hands!
Its episode 2 of season 5 and Jen is literally questioning all of her life choices as they delve deep into the whys, whens and hows of this series. Needless to say the main why is, why isn't anything of any interest happening?? As always Maureen is the person that keeps this podcast afloat, no one knows why Jen is still involved, least of all Jen.
As always it's podcast gold.
Maureen and Jen are back with their mostly ignored podcast focusing on the hit award winning blah blah blah series, Outlander!
It's series 5 and Jen has no idea why she's still watching it. Maureen on the other hand is neck deep in the story line and consumed with emotion. Tune in if you love /hate/are indifferent to Outlander. This is almost certainly the podcast you wished you'd heard about 5 years ago so you could tell friends not to listen. ENJOY!
Maureen & Jen are back with their first podcast of 2020 and it's as average as all the other ones. Expect chat about Maureen's jigsaw puzzle, Jen's murder mystery NYE and an anecdote that neither of them can remember. Honestly why anyone listens to this nonsense is an absolute mystery.
It's the last podcast of 2019 and this one literally delivers the exact same nonsense as all the other ones, so don't expect them to have raised their game. Tune in to hear about Jen stuck in a van outside the Royal Albert Hall, how much Maureen loves her ring tone and other nail biting anecdotes. Not to be MISSED!
Maureen and Jen recorded this a while back so who knows what this is about. Suffice to say by the end of the record it gets a bit tense. I'm not sure if this is a podcast or some kind of workshop if I'm honest...
Oh look they've done another one. Yes it's gone up a bit late or a bit early. Who knows? If you listen to this podcast you'll be used to the fact that this eps go up randomly. Anyway, here the irrepressible duo bang on about stuff that include Maureen's love of Austria and the fact that Jen misses Claire Foy even though she hasn't started watching the new season of The Crown.
Oh look, it's these two loons back again with some more nonsense. In this Ep you can expect to hear how Jen locked herself in a hotel room, what books and shows they're reading/watching and other bollocks. Enjoy!
Maureen and Jen bring to you another 25 minutes of upbeat* banter to fill your ear 'oles. In this episode they talk about their limited expectations for their respective careers, films they don't like and the upcoming season of Outlander. I mean there's other stuff but you'll just have to listen to find out....
*not really
Maureen and Jen have released yet another hotch potch 25 minutes of nonsense. This episode they talk about Maureen's inability to disguise her true feelings, aggressive Mums and how many people Jen has punched in the face. Good times.
Maureen and Jen are still at the Edinburgh Festival... they talk gin, tv shows they love and other stuff. I don't really remember if I'm honest...
Maureen and Jen are at the Edinburgh Festival and loving every last second of their time there. Tune in to find out if Maureen can take her alcohol (she can't) how much fun Jen is having (she isn't) and what kind of celebrity parties they've been invited to (they haven't.)
Recorded back in July no one has any real idea what was going on, but Maureen and Jen are consistent in their pursuit of chatting around and about subjects that are of little to no interest to anyone other than themselves. Enjoy!

Maureen and younger and Jen Brister are back yet again with ANOTHER out of date podcast that they actually recorded AGES ago but Jen hasn't gotten round to putting up. Tune in to find out why Jen loves Factor 50, why Maureen is so bad at washing up and whether or not Jen and maureen will finally move in together (for Edinburgh at least...)
After accidentally uploading the same podcast twice, here is the correct episode. Suffice to say this ep was forgotten, so no one can really remember what the hell anyone was going on about. But judging by the title we talked about at least three different subjects. ENJOY!
Maureen and Jen are BACK after a long hiatus with another podcast of witterings. This time they chat about comedy fans, Maureen's love of Wonder Woman (don't ask) and diversity (we're all about the zeitgeist.) Enjoy!
Folks it's the series episode of Droughtlander! I know, dry your eyes because Maureen and Jen will be back with more ramblings, but for now why not tuck into this nonsense.
This ep Maureen and Jen discuss the French Scandinavian French priest, question the hearing of the Mohawk people and how it looks like Jamie and Claire might well be usurped by Briana and Roger. Who knows? Who cares? Maybe you do? I dunno, I've lost the will if I'm honest...
Apologies that this podcast is up late (you may not have noticed) but here is a bumper episode to make up for it. It's nearly an hour and if you can face it, Maureen and Jen discuss Brianna's temper, Roger's eternal misfortune and Lady Jane Grey's dashing looks. So much to catch up on...
Uh oh! It's the first podcast of 2019 and Maureen and Jen are still banging on about Outlander. Hence the title of this podcast. In this episode they discuss Jen's sexy voice (WHAT?), the fantastic orienteering skills of every character (PLEASE) and Roger's bloody trousers (They are a DISGRACE!) Enjoy.
Here we go again! Maureen and Jen are in a festive mood and delighted to be discussing the latest episode of Outlander. They take their time to dissect Briana's orienteering skills, Roger's horrific trousers and how much Maureen loves Tobias Menzies. You're welcome.
Maureen and Jen are delighted to be talking about episode 6 of Season 4. Maureen is sightly on edge, (probably due to spending too much time in Jen's company) but they do come together in their admission that the series has finally perked up, not least due to the arrival of our old friend, Lady Jane Grey and his incredible eyebrows.
Don't you just love how these podcasts just randomly pop up? Maureen and Jen are up to date as they discuss episode 5 of season 4. Maureen is delighted that Outlander is back on track with a 'surprise' (not really) return of a much loved character, and Jen's is still as exasperated as ever with the whole thing. It's A LOT of fun for everyone. Honest.
Unbelievably Maureen and Jen have another exciting Droughtlander Episode. That's two in one week! They're almost doing this professionally. Well, almost. Listen in to hear everything you needed to know and a lot less about Season 4 Episode 4.
Maureen and Jen return with a bonus Droughtlander this week, this time looking at episodes 2 & 3 of Season 4. Tune in as they marvel at how a show can be both so brutal and naturalistic in one episode and stark raving bonkers in the next.
Oh look Maureen and Jen are back with a brand new episode of DROUGHTLANDER! And it's almost on time! Almost. Tune in to find out what Maureen and Jen think of the first episode of series four. It's nail biting stuff.
Oh lucky, lucky you because this week you have an EXTRA podcast from Maureen and Jen! Let's not dwell on the fact that you didn't have one two weeks ago, or the week before that. YOU HAVE ANY EXTRA ONE THIS WEEK! So make the most of it!
This Friday begins the new season of our Droughtlander Podcast, which if you haven't heard it is much the same as this podcast except we talk about Outlander.
Anyhoo, in this extra ep we hear all about Maureen's adventures forest bathing, her brand new mince recipe and what the hell is in Jen's bag? This episode is a bloody rollercoaster, it really is.
Uh oh Jen's feeling hormonal so if you're a man listening to this (what are the chances?) just know she doesn't really hate all men. Only some of you. Kidding! It's a really fun episode see if you can hear the tension in Maureen's voice as she spends a good 30 minutes hoping Jen isn't going to implode. ENJOY!
Maureen and Jen hit an all time low in terms of subject matter. This episode they literally talk about bugger all. If you can face 20 minutes of this nonsense then good luck to you...
Oh look they're back AGAIN. This time Maureen and Jen get to grips with Maureen's fame, TV shows and how Maureen is little of interest to say about Barry Cryer. What I'm trying to say is, this episode is just more of the same.
Oh look, after deleting the last one by accident. HERE IT IS AGAIN. It's the same episode everyone so please don't expect anything different. Suffice to say it's mainly about Maureen's eating habits in Norway, Jen's opinion on the bodyguard and their ever increasing bemusement as to wwy anyone listens to this nonsense. YOU'RE WELCOME!
In this ep Maureen and Jen are still at the Edinburgh Festival, not now obviously but they were then... Never mind, they spent 4 days together and needless to say the hysteria has kicked in...
Maureen and Jen are back! Will anyone notice? It seems unlikely, but that doesn't stop them talking about the huge amount of fun Jen is having at the Edinburgh Festival and dissecting Maureen's inner monologue.
Maureen and Jen are on packed train from Bradford to London with Jen's Mum. They have no shame because they still record this podcast. Actually Jen i s a bit embarrassed but seriously Maureen doesn't even notice the bloke opposite who is staring directly at them with a look of incredulity on his face. Anyway, here it is...
Maureen and Jen are nattering away again. this time they talk about middle age, politics and people they hate. That explains the extra 10 minutes then...
In this episode Maureen and Jen try to get to grips with technology by using their brand new mic. The fail. AGAIN. But if you can put up with the horrific sound quality Jen and Maureen talk about lots of stuff, but mostly how much they enjoy standing up to men who hassle them.
Maureen and Jen can't stop talking! Well they can, they usually run out of things to say after 20 minutes. However, On this week's episode they are interrupted before they get to finish there usual slick nonsense. They still have time to talk about Maureen's diet, the pros and cons of Britain's Got Talent and their favourite museums... I know, exciting stuff.
Maureen and Jen have upgraded themselves with a brand new microphone! Has it improved the quality of the sound? Not really no, as neither of them have any idea about levels, sound direction or any clue how to use a mic. But you do get to here the sound of Maureen's dress rustling for 25 minutes, which proves this new microphone is great quality.
Tune in and listen to them tackle the important subjects of the day including time management, having a sense of direction and circumcised penises. And if that doesn't sell it.... never mind.
In this week's episode Maureen and Jen talk FILMS! So if you enjoy Almodovar, the Nouvelle Vague and Kevin Costner, this is the episode for you.
Maureen & Jen talk travel! Lord knows they've done enough of it between them and if you can stand the horrifically bad audio quality of this episode you'll find out why.
Maureen and Jen talk everything they know about success, which is why this podcast is only 25 minutes long. Still they have lots of wisdom to impart, so tune in to see if you can discover a single kernel. You may have to listen more than once...
In this week's episode Maureen and Jen tackle the subject of ageing and all that comes with it. Well, that's not strictly true...to be honest, Maureen mainly has to handle 25 minutes in the company of a pre menstrual Jen. If you can imagine the horror.Don't imagine, LISTEN TO IT!
Maureen and Jen are BACK! This time they have a brand new podcast all about .... well they don't really know to be honest. They're hoping it'll be more popular than the last two attempts but who knows? Do have a listen if you want to know how they met, why they have so few friends and just how gender fluid Maureen is... (not very as it turns out.) It's 25 minutes and you can do the washing up while your listening if you like? Oh never mind.
Tune into the final episode of Droughtlander for this season where Maureen and Jen question why the hell they bothered doing this podcast in the first place, Maureen admits that the last episode is one stretch from reality too far and Jen gets her rant on AGAIN. It's a proper finale.
Maureen and Jen come ever closer to catching up with Season 3 before the finale1 Will this podcast become relevant just as the season ends? Probably. In this slightly rushed edition Maureen and Jen tackle the doldrums (sometimes literally) as they look at Episodes 9 & 10. Maureen insists that Jamie can be attractive as he projectile vomits and Jen finds herself somewhat attracted to Claire looking sweaty in a headscarf. You know, the usual.
Maureen and Jen are elbow deep in Outlander analysis as they turn their attention to episodes 7 & 8. Maureen marvels at Jamie's machismo (again) whilst Jen is confused as to how the ageing process works in 18th century Scotland; and they both agree that neither Claire or Jamie should be allowed to babysit.
Here we go again, Maureen and Jen are steaming their way through season 3 like a par of steam...irons...I mean trains. Never mind. This podcast they look at episodes 5 & 6. Maureen really enjoys chatting about the 'reunion' and Jen can't help pointing out the continuity holes in time travel. Who knew?
Maureen and Jen are giddy with excitement* as they continue to look at Season 3 of Outlander. This time they turn their attention to episodes 3 & 4. Jen has a lot of opinions that may or may not be fuelled by alcohol and Maureen is just happy to be talking about Outlander, after all what else is there?
*That maybe an overstatement
No one thought this would ever happen, least of all Maureen and Jen BUT they have finally got to season 3! UNBELIEVABLE i know, anyway in this podcast they look at episodes 1 & 2 where Maureen's excitement is tangible and Jen tries to get a word in edgeways.
Is this a mirage I see before me...? No its a bumper episode of Droughtlander and in this episode Maureen and Jen manage to cover the final two episodes of Season 2. YES IT'S UNBELIEVABLE! It's only taken them 6 months... (probably longer) Who knows they might actually might get up to date with the current series at some point... don't hold your breath.
Jen and Maureen are extremely pleased with themselves as they secure their triptych of podcasts. 3 in a row! It's a miracle, not a real miracle where something miraculous happens, just two comedians taking their job (ha ha no one is getting paid!) a bit more seriously. Tune in to Jen and Maureen discussing episodes 10 & 11. Jen is almost interested, not interested enough to listen to anything that Maureen says obviously, but not bored out of her mind either. Will they get to the end of series 2? Will they ever move on to the series that everyone is actually watching? No one knows, least of all them as they can't see into the future.
Maureen and Jen are delighted to be dissecting Episodes 9 & 10 of Season 2. It's unbelievable that they managed to get their act together to record another one so quickly. Don't expect this to continue... anyway, here you go, another 26 minutes of Maureen falling in love with all things Jamie and Jen finally admitting that she might be enjoying Outlander (just a little bit.)
Maureen and Jen have finally got their act together and recorded another episode of Droughtlander FOR THE SECOND TIME! (No one knows where the first recording went...) This time they're looking at Episodes 7 & 8 of Series 2. A series that no one is watching because series one is on More 4 and series 3 has just come out on Amazon. Still, they're nothing if not dogged/deluded/clueless.
It's been a few months but Maureen and Jen are back again due to no demand whatsoever, with another episode of their critically ignored podcast. This episode they cover episodes 5 & 6 of series 2 where Jen discovers that she prefers season one and Maureen is still banging on about how Jamie is the 'perfect man.' So, if that tickles your fancy get listening!
Maureen and Jen are still doing this podcast much to everyone's indifference. This time they look at episodes 3 & 4, pr rather Maureen does because Jen appears to have no idea what the hell is going on at any given moment.
Maureen and Jen are BACK analysing the hit Scottish highland time travel show that is Outlander. They are finally on to Series 2 and in this episode they take a gander at the first two episodes. It's riveting stuff. Even if Jen is seemingly bored to tears with the whole thing now, Maureen is as ever...ENTHRALLED.
Tune in to the final episode of Droughtlander where both Jen and Maureen try to dissect the final two traumatic episodes of Outlander. Jen has no idea why Maureen made her watch them and Maureen is still foggy eyed about the whole show even after watching 437 times.
Maureen and Jen are still wittering on about Outlander much to the general indifference of the entire breathing planet. Still they think at least 12 people are listening. Here they discuss Eps 12-14 where they can finally agree on something... and that is that Episode 14 need never have happened. Enjoy.
Maureen and Jen delve once more into the intricate plot, narrative, characters and psychological drama of the hit period/sci-fi/fantasy/historical show that is Outlander. It would help if they had any idea what episode they were talking about. To be honest I don't think making notes has helped them seem anymore professional. Still, they had a go. Why not join them as they try to fathom why Claire is so ridiculously hot headed, Jamie is so ridiculously romantic and Geliis has such ridiculously unflattering outfits. Needless to say they're none the wiser by the end of this episode.
Another Episode for all Outlander fans, this time Jen and Maureen go into forensic detail looking at episodes 8 & 9 of series one. Jen even has more than one opinion which makes a change. Maureen on the other hand can't get enough of the show. If nothing else we learn that Jen & Maureen shouldn't watch sex scenes together, it's just awkward.
Episode 4 of the not so official Outlander Podcast from Maureen Younger and Jen Brister. Join them hiding behind a wall in the BFI trying to discuss various sex scenes whilst being interrupted by the noise of traffic, random passers by and a man with emphysema. No one could accuse these two of being a professional outfit, but if you like the show you might like this and if you don't like the show you might like this. What we're saying is, you might like this. Oh never mind.
Maureen and Jen are back by literally no demand with their third episode all about Outlander. Yeah, they're still talking about it. Join them as they not only discuss Maureen's favourite television programme of all time but why Jen always gets asked to leave the women's toilets and how everyone should have an 'occasional stool.' Don't ask, just tune in!
Maureen and Jen are BACK with yet another podcast about all things Outlander(ish). Listen in if you have nothing better to do. I mean listen in If like Maureen you LOVE Outlander, or if like Jen your friend Maureen has made you watch Outlander! What can I tell you, this podcast is pretty niche....
The first in a brand new series all about Maureen's favourite television show OF ALL TIME, Outlander! Listen in if you love the show, or if you love Sam Heughan or if you fancy Caitriona Balfe or if you're fascinated by Jacobite history (maybe not) or if you've just missed the dulcet tones of Maureen and Jen. (unlikely) Whatever if your reason you won't regret it. (Again I can't promise that.)
Maureen and Jen are hysterical. It's not their fault they are currently in the middle of a journey from hell. Join them halfway on a Virgin train from Birmingham to Euston - - before the night bus breaks down, Jen freaks out cause she thinks she's lost her wallet and finally falls asleep wedged between a coffee table and a sofa....
It's been a while but Maureen and Jen are BACK! And this time they're taking a more cerebral approach and discussing Classical philosophy and Neitzsche... OF COURSE THEY'RE NOT! They're just wittering on about bugger all as usual, but this in time in the fabulous company of Leisa Rea. Do listen, you'll learn nothing.
Maureen and Jen are still talking into dead air, much to the general inertia of the general public. This time they nearly discuss a trip to Vienna, ruminate over Maureen's latest 38th birthday and talk to the wonderful Suzi Ruffell who is infinitely more interesting than Jen and Maureen. It's galling really.
It's the New Year and for once Maureen and Jen have something to say. It's debatable if it's actually of any interest to anyone, even themselves. Still, tune in if you like podcasts about sobriety, tax returns, Korean food and knitting. Yeah, 2014 starts here people.
It's Christmas and Maureen and Jen forget to acknowledge this fact until halfway through the podcast. Still, they have other things on their minds like the time they forgot to record this podcast in Birmingham and how Jen is no fun to be with when she's premenstrual. Lucky for them and unlucky for the rest of you, they remembered to record this one. Expect to hear two women making no sense whilst sitting on a brown sofa in North London with a ginger cat. You're welcome.
Yes, Maureen and Jen deludedly continue with these podcasts. Back on Jen's sofa - the ladies discuss the important issues of the day like a dodgy Dutch Christmas tradition, the likelihood of Jen 'turning' Babs Windsor and Crosse & Blackwell soup. WILD TIMES.
Maureen and Jen find themselves at a loose end in Stockport, so with the option of watching Les Miserables or recording a podcast they decide to create this nonsense with their comedy friends, Angie McEvoy and Kerry Leigh. Expect far too much information on pound sandwich shops, sexy pirates and chicken goujons. You have been warned.
The second of what is so far two podcasts. See how it works? Maureen and Jen are back with more nonsense but a better understanding of how to use Garageband. Unfortunately this hasn't improved the content of the podcast. Still, if you want to hear about Maureen's trip to Milton Keynes then TUNE IN! Also Jen makes a chicken casserole. This podcast is so rock n roll! (In no way whatsoever)
Stand up comedians Maureen Younger and Jen Brister have decided to make a podcast. Why? Because no one asked them to. In their very first episode they ask important questions like? Why the hell are we doing a podcast anyway? Can you record your voice without a mic? And does anyone read German literature in German if they’re not German? They do if they’re Maureen. With their special guest, writer VG Lee, Maureen and Jen tackle the important issues of the day. Let's just say that things are said that can never be unsaid. Mainly because I recorded it and stuck it on here.
