A man that has been on the periphery of my media consumption for 20 years or so, and I admit I didn’t really ‘get’ the Adam & Joe thing at first and as none of my friends were bothered I missed that boat, but after catching some of their show on 6Music a while ago, it’s been nice to revisit Mr. Buxton (on the recommendation of a friend who is a big fan*).
Not only is he both affable and quirkly entertaining, his range of guests constantly surprises. I downloaded a few older episodes and have enjoyed every minute of them; Josh Homme and Matt Berry a favourite so far, purely because I just couldn’t place them as being mates (which they are!).
Similarly to Beautiful Anonymous, the format and content varies, but Adam is both sympathetic, positive, engaging and funny when needed.
A couple of recent highlights for you.

* also recommended was BUG, his live show where Adam takes you through some of the comments found under music videos posted on YouTube, utterly hilarious. More about BUG.
Caught him in Glasgow last year supporting Spoon – he did a bit of the YouTube thing as part of his set, which was good fun.

Yeah, will keep an eye out for next time he is north of the border I think!
