The Adam and Edith Show is up and running and is ready to listen again.
Very much testing the crest of the watery airwaves in their first show, Adam and Edith entertained us with silliness, sound bytes, Korda reports and jingle jongles woven through a diverse playlist. Edith is so grown up that she actually drove the show from the desk leaving Adam to pour his reassuring warmth all over our idiocy-hungry areas.
For only six more weeks, they will build on their relationship and with any luck, forge the kind of fun that will make 6Music bring them back soon, maternity leave permitting!
They have their own email address if you want to contact the show during the week. While it's on air you can text to 64046 or use the 6Music Twitter account but do remember to be polite and kind. Unnecessary rudeness is waste of your valuable time and will inevitably make you look like a small winkie.
The podcast for these shows will be conveniently plopped into your normal Adam and Joe Pod Portal later on in the evening.
They also joined Lauren yesterday to chat about their preparation for the show. You can listen to it here.
Make yourself a brew and pass your peepers over these few bits that I didn't want to wedge into my last missive.
Since my award wining post, Ken Korda has visited the Adam And Joe blog to say a little something about Adam's success.
The ITV2 coverage barely included any of the acceptance speeches. You can see the sum total of what we got here but as Sam Clements pointed out, that is begging to be turned into a gif so I done it. Gallifrey's own Vidjam had a particularly demented way of viewing it.
Our happy, beardy winner kindly gave a special BUG presentation during a students day at the BFI last week. Is there no end to this man's tender generosity? Perhaps Joe managed to syphon some of the young people off afterwards to test his film on them. Time to dust off my pig-tails wig and dental restrainers.
One of the films Adam has been showing at his gigs lately went up on YouTube a couple of days after my last main post so I'll pop it in here now.
With any luck, by the end of the week we will have the full version of Chris Bowles' latest incredible animation, bringing the Glastonbury football commentaries to life. This is just a teaser...
If you haven't seen what he's done with the original Stephen story and Adam's video games chitty-chat, take the time now.
Adam and Joe featured on The Weakest Link question list and this time, I was able to capture it.
Friends of.....
Sontum of Qualace's own Ben Mercer got a mention in Music Week News a few days ago.
After his exhausting schedule for Scott Pilgrim, Edgar took a little rest but he's been back with blog entries from time to time and the twitter seems to be firing up to speed again.
Garth Jennings and Nick Goldsmith have been lending their lovely weight to A Town Called Panic and that gives me an opportunity to plug the Picturehouse's own, sweet podcast. Frankly, subscribing is the best way to deal with these people. You'll find their jingles a little confusing when familiar strains don't manifest into the well loved Song Wars track you were pre-conditioned to expect. If you're in Greenwich or Brixton, do listen to the details of the competition towards the end for some lovely goodies. The really wonderful news included in this podcast is that Hammer And Tongs are releasing a video of all their promo work with behind the scenes stuff. It's coming out in November and it sounds as though it will be double plus good.
