The Royal Wedding Adam And Joe Commemorative Tea-towel #AdamAndJoe

Get your fingers of vote and your ears of discernment ready for this week's Song Wars!  It's the first and perhaps the only war in this series of shows so be sure to execute your duty diligently. I don't want to hear any excuses.

Lucy has made it really easy by putting email links on the blog page where you can also listen to the tunes again.

Deep respect to erm....I'll have to come back with the name after I've listened again This Person who has made a Tumblr with many of the Made Up Jokes.

I felt sure they'd ask us to do something wedding related for the Black Squadron Command this week but it was 'Surgery' in the end.

I'd had a little go at some preparations and everything.......

Credit for the amazing Paper People designs goes, as always to Sally Grosart, who has also made the main five young characters in Joe's film, Attack the Block.

Trailer Tramp #AdamAndJoe

Here's this week's trailer, as Adam gets closer to communing with people of the street.

May I take this opportunity to mention a few diary points? Thanks, you're awfully kind.

Joe will premiere his film, "Attack the Block" at Vue in London's shiny Leicester Square on Wednesday, 4th May 2011 and the 10 minute Film4 Specials start on the HD area of their dining room on 6th May.

Adam's episode of "And the winner is..." will air at 10pm on Saturday, 7th May 2011.

Easter Commitments #AdamAndJoe

There really is no way Adam and Joe can do a live show at Easter. For a start, they are full of quasi religious danger.

Smug, Easter Face #AdamAndJoe

Hey!  See if YOU can guess the answer to Joe's clue.

Welcome to "Made Up Jokes with Adam and Joe" #AdamAndJoe

Here is the trail currently running on 6Music, made from last Saturday's show.

Adam is bringing another BUG Special to Latitude again this year. Fun for all of the family.

This week's trail #AdamAndJoe

Just to prove that I still have a pulse and that Adam and Joe can still quicken it, here is the latest trail cut from last weekend's show.

From 9th April 2011 show....airing during the following week.

The Podcast has not slipped from the top of the iTunes Main chart since two hours after the first one went up.  The episode is being selfishly kept from the top by Gervais-based fodder.

Even on a Friday, the full Listen Again show is in the top 30 of all BBC radio but it was in the top ten earlier in the week, of course.  The Adam and Joe Blog has links to the Black Squadron photo galleries and hopefully another picture from James Hood soon.

Since standing down from nugget duties, I've put a page of links together here and to spare the Twitter feeds of that tiny proportion of my followers who are not interested in every breath the idiotholes take on a Saturday morning, I have another tiny twitter account. To be honest, you don't need to follow it. You're best just tuning into WickWox's wickle list for the morning or just punch the ol' #Twitsquadron into your device (works best in an app, if you like to tweet as well as read).

You'll soon find out that I don't have a clue what I'm doing there but I did make a Facebook Page in anticipation of someone sending me a peripheral for my brain that will enable me to use it properly.

My life motto(for today): Don't expect miracles and life will always amaze you.

Adam Does a Meltdown on behalf of Joe #AdamAndJoe

Because I know you won't want to wait for iPlayer to kick in......

Joe got a little frustrated with the technicals during Black Squadron command time.

from 9th April 2011

For @Sam_Clements Bedit?

did I hear "bedit" ?

This, by the way, is how all Picturehouses Podcasts are finely tuned.

The Trail featuring Professor Doctor David Cox and PodcastTriumph! #AdamAndJoe

I know I promised I wouldn't bother this area of the net for a while but some things cannot go unmarked.

There has been a third trail today and this one features a clip from Saturday's show.  Despite this name wonkerisation being nipped from the Podcast(or did I just miss it?), it's been blasting down the airwaves this afternoon.  Joe can be forgiven for this tongue slip because a) he has a lovely, albeit over-active tongue and b) he has a lovely friend who goes by that name.

Listen out for Joe's operatic warbling in the background of this music. Please let James give us this as a nice, clean mp3.


From 4th April 2011

With no further encouragement needed, their dreams have been answered and the Podcast went in at number one in the Comedy chart with minutes of being launched (at 7pm on Saturday). Of course, that is admirable but not quite the top potato.
However, a couple of hours later, it was #1 in the main Podcast Chart.

Earlier today, the Denny Different episode went on to claim #4 in the Episode chart where it remains as I write.

The Protector of Twitsquadron and her Trusty Maker/Baker featured on #AdamAndJoe's Show Today

What a glorious return to 6Music Adam and Joe had this morning. It was everything we could have hoped for and in some areas more, in others a little bit less*.

If ever there was substantiating evidence that hard work pays dividends, then the joyous appreciation of @WickWox and @Monastico's needlecraft must be that proof.

They got a wonderfully touching and well deserved mention from Adam and Joe on this morning's show for all the care they put into the wonderful banner currently bunting it's way across the 6Music studio.

It was put up during their show to welcome them back and seems to have remained there since, so far.

You can see it behind James in the top left of this picture....

Bunting

but there's a better idea of it here and a small insight into how it was actually made

They sent some Jaffa Cakes along as well. Hark, listen to the J-Meister ploughing through them and Count Buckules' beautiful thanks and appreciation of the care taken. 

From 2nd April 2011

I should remind you, if it is needed, that these two lovely women were instrumental in making the wonderful sorry-your-friend-has-turned-out-to-be-such-a-ponce gift book when Joe first started to make his awesome** film.

Still there for Liz's Show and now Jon's. Good Times.

*have to admit, it seemed much cleaner without Boggins. I forget that the url for this thing still has that in it. Not much I can do about it. I named it when it was just the show that had that title.

** I say 'awesome' because I can't conceive of it being otherwise. It may be dreadful. I wouldn't know. I haven't seen it. I expect it's awesome.

 

Operative Standing Down for a while #AdamAndJoe

On this glorious day of returning heroes I shall make my final daily sound pop and there is no better tribute or ear greasing preparation than Garth's Flattery Song.

Don't be embarrassed if you shed a tear. It's natural.

from 27th December 2008

Adam and Joe return to the Big British Castle today and my salving work is done here.

Listen Live between 10 am and 1pm. Keep in touch:

Join in the ramblings of TwitSquadron or search for #Twitsquadron and if you're early enough there's #BlackSquadron.  If you indulge in Stephenage, please remember to act responsibly and remember it's with a 'ph' and not a 'v'.

There's also a Lingr room around (You might need to use this link  to sign-up)

Thanks for dropping by over the last few months. It's been fun.

Perhaps I'll see you during the next downtime.

Unacceptable Words in The Castle #AdamAndJoe

In the unlikely event that either of them check in here, I thought it might be helpful to give a reminder of the words you may not use within The Castle walls.
