Oh God, What Now?

Oh God, What Now? combines top-quality guests, expert analysis and poor-quality jokes to make the unbearable bearable. Launched from the anti-Brexit movement in 2017, Oh God, What Now? is on a mission to make sense of our political hell twice a week every week.

About

Sometimes the only sensible response to our relentless tide of political clownery is Oh God, What Now?

​

Launched in 2017 as the anti-Brexit podcast Remainiacs, ‘OGWN’ has evolved into a cult politics free-for-all where the cream of independent political commentators get to let off steam, share their insights, swap stories and generally provide battered Britain with the support group it needs. And by popular demand, the weekly podcast is now twice weekly. 

​

Regulars include comedian Matt Green, journalist Ros Taylor, comedy writer Jason Hazeley, journalist Marie Le Conte, Guardian writer Raf Behr, New Statesman associate political editor Rachel Cunliffe and many more. With a string of special guests from Al Murray, James O’Brien and Rory Stewart to Gina Murray, Emily Thornberry and Tony Blair, Oh God What Now? is the political safety valve you need – every Tuesday and Friday.
