Well, they somehow managed an entire series despite many attempted injunctions to have them taken off air. B and Jonny see out Series One with the grand finale, Bang - based around 3 stories about explosions. First up is the opening extract from The Panopticon Experiment, a gripping tale of friendship and hope by Rachel Caldecott. Rachel's book can…

No, it's not a new hard-hitting crime series. It's more fun chat as the Internet's only Hiberno-Swiss duo return for the penultimate episode of Series 1. B. recommends the many health benefits of drinking hot water, while Jonny remembers, as a lad, always having wanted but never receiving a helium-filled balloon. This week’s stories, from The Litop…

Before you get your hopes up, B & Jonny haven't been. They managed to get to the Lit Lounge again and somehow foist another show on an unsuspecting public. This week they're featuring two short stories on the "Locked In" theme, along with an excerpt from a newly published, gripping and tense thriller. #MandyDream visits Vlogger, Mandy, who's just a…

Keeping their weekly date in the now legendary Lit Lounge, B & Jonny explore the frequently tricky subject of dating, with the usual mix of fun and wry sideways glancing. The show features three stories on fledgling relationships: My First Love by Rachel Caldecott, Faint Heart by Eva Ulian and Cinderella 2.0 by David Lewis.…

Well, you can't have too much of a good thing, but in the meantime you'll have to put up with another one of these. This time B & Jonny take an amusing look at murderous intentions showcasing three more short stories on that theme. This week we have: Neighbours by Matthew Snoding. How to Commit The Perfect Crime by Sinead and Till Death Us Do Part …

Believe it or not, B and Jonny are still at large. Yes. Apparently there's been a problem with the paperwork and the writs haven't been served yet. So this week they're looking at childhood homes and the memories they hold, with three more short stories based on that theme. Sculpture by J A Babo. App-eals by Stacey Noe and The Layover by Steve Why.…

Something ought to be done about these two, but until it is B & Jonny will keep coming back again with fun chat, cake talk and two more great short stories sent in by listeners. So grab a coffee and kick your shoes off and allow yourself fifteen minutes to enjoy, Fried by Brian Weston and Ten Years From Now by Lisa Heidle.…

B & Jonny are back and the digital postman's been, delivering stories sent into the show from around the world. So in addition to the usual banter and cake talk, why not take 10 minutes to listen to three fabulous flash fiction stories submitted by listeners. 437 Wilton Street (A Brick Story), by Zach Murphy. Luke, by Ree Villaruel. And The Beetle'…

"Make it so." As B and Jonny present more fun, laughs and short stories, this time of a sci-fi nature. Those of a faint-hearted disposition should be warned the show features someone who ought to know better, yet still has the front to perform a disco song lyric through the medium of Rap. You have been warned. Short Story Hunters wishes to state it…

They're back again. B and Jonny present another coffee break length show of fun and short stories. So put the kettle on and relax for fifteen minutes, then go about your business refreshed, all the better for the experience and with a skip in your step.

New Beginnings? Some suggest that would have been ideal as theme for episode one. But Pod Land's first Hiberno-Swiss presenting duo, B & Jonny, laugh in the face of such hidebound convention. They dance to a different drum. And if you'd like to submit your own story, then visit litopia.com/hunters and send us your flash fiction piece of no more tha…

Every week B and Jonny present 3 short stories or pieces of flash fiction from writers at Litopia writers' colony and beyond. If you'd like to send us your story (500 words maximum, please) we have an open door policy. If we like them we'll featured them on the show.
