The day Joe bumped into Duncan Jones #AdamAndJoe

It's rather sweet and so typical of Joe that at the time, he didn't want to mention this on air.
Of course, since then Duncan has become a more willingly available figure in his own right and Joe publicly recounted this meeting whilst discussing Moon last year, so I'm not revealing any great secret here and it's no coincidence that I chose to mention it today.
This clip goes on to recount Adam's first meeting with Spickle Spockle Jonze and we all know how deeply embedded in Adam And Joe culture that relationship has become (despite the fact that Joe failed to ask the sacred six questions at the top of his interview with the now sleeping Edgar Wright).



From 29th October 05

Don't miss your chance to see Moon on the big screen. It is a breathtaking piece which stands up to multiple viewings. If you can be in Waterloo later on today, you'll be rewarded by a Q & A with Duncan Jones. Check availability here.

Podcast Intro Day: Blinda Date-ah #AdamAndJoe

A crowd pleaser for the holiday weekend.

From the Podcast of the 21st November 2009 show
What's going on down there?
There's another nubble-bob here. That's unheard of on Podcast Intro day. It's a lovely public holiday in the UK and I don't even care if it's illegal because this is my special corner and I shall decorate it to my own liking.
Today, my own liking happens to topically reference Big Brother's Nikki and one of Joe's accents (his only accent).

From 2nd September 2006 (again)

They must really miss all those adverts #AdamAndJoe

A few tiddlers on the subject of show-length to waffle-content ratio.
The first three series of XFM shows were only two hours long and in the lazy afternoon. They were littered with commercials and premium rate phone-in features. This often meant there was only about forty minutes of banter to cook up.




When they returned from holiday in the summer of 2006 they had a new morning slot (can I say 'slot' on a Sunday?).
For a couple of months, it was extended by one hour. This was just to fit in more calls from listeners requesting the music they played (a feature called The X List) so they didn't actually need to find much more original nonsense.
However, they never really embraced this element of the show and just kept on with their interminable (or shambolic - you choose) waffle.





It was such a pointless addition that our sensible idiotholes vetoed the whole idea of extra time.








Furthermore,  the new time of day meant they had several minutes of newsreader waffle to interact with.....or not.




It makes you appreciate how much harder they have to work to fill the time at BBC 6Music responsibly
