Something New

Merry Christmas!!! We do the usual trading gifts, wishing each other tidings - y' know, all that mushy stuff. We also Talk about a black Batman meltdown, how Mrs. Clause used to be fine, and we catch some of you new folks up to the old days when Korey and Martin were party warriors.

We're especially grateful to how supportive you've been this holiday by helping out our Kickstarter campaign. Thank you so much for your donations. We'll keep you updated on our progress.

The Korey and Martin Show - December 24, 2013

Hello, Adam Buxton here.

In 2006 Joe and I put out 20 short podcasts which included conversational moments from our first ever radio show, on London's Xfm, Saturday mornings on and off between 2004 - 2006. As pickings from the radio show were often slim, we'd record other bits in our own time, hence the bad language.

This is a compilation of some of my favourite bits.

EP.140 - CANDICE CARTY-WILLIAMS

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.
