Buckles and Macca...oh my, this is absolutely unmissable. I BET you were shitting your pants beforehand. Well done, Adam, I'm sure you and Paul will enjoy this once the nerves settle!

Excellent work, we could have gone on for another 9 hours, radio at its finest. ⚡️🦇⭐️🌎

Adam - Excellent work! What an intelligent & fun interview. I think it's the best interview of Paul I've ever heard. Keep up the great work. Cheers

congrats Adam - Great interview!  I would have pee-pee and poo-pooed my pants.  Looking forward to our annual Adam and Joe catch up.  Thanks man!

You are the master podcaster! I loved how quickly it became a nice relaxed chat, and I could tell Paul was impressed with your musical knowledge and thoughtful insights. Love ya. x.

What a great interview.  Paul seems like a nice chap and he seemed very at ease.  I'd like to think that Adam punched the air and whooped when the call ended, given his nervousness at the start.

Adam talks with British musician Paul McCartney about, among other things, his favourite snacks and British TV panel shows, what Bob Dylan is really like, whether the modern world is scarier than the 60s, how he and John Lennon really got on after the Beatles broke up, and why he no longer picks up hitch hikers.

Recorded remotely on November 18th, 2020.

EP.144 - PAUL McCARTNEY

British comedian Adam Buxton talks with interesting people. The rambly conversations are sometimes funny, sometimes more serious with funny bits. Adam records the intros and outros for most episodes while walking with his dog friend Rosie in the East Anglian countryside where he lives with his wife and three children. 

Adam has appeared in films such as ‘Hot Fuzz’, ‘Stardust’ and ‘Son Of Rambow’ as well as a variety of TV shows in the UK. Since 2007 he has hosted ‘BUG’, a live show that combines music videos and comedy that became a TV series on Sky Atlantic in 2012. From time to time he also does live shows featuring just his own material. Along with lifelong friend Joe Cornish he also is one half of award winning TV, radio and podcast duo Adam & Joe who have worked together since 1995. 

You can find many of the insanely catchy jingles Adam makes for the podcast as well as amazing bonus material, beautiful merchandise and a selection of his incredibly funny and brilliant YouTube videos on the free Adam Buxton app.

Adam is writing this himself using the third person.
