First of these up now.

https://soundcloud.com/adam-buxton/the-adam-buxton-podcast-ep1-holiday-buffet-with-louis-theroux

It's mostly a discussion with ~~Ken Korda~~ Louis Theroux about hotel buffet etiquette, with a guest appearance by Baaaaaadaaaaad at the end. Bit more serious in tone than you might've thought, but it's pretty good. Nigel Buxton is 90 now!

I wonder who the other convos are with and how often he will cast the pod. I would have thought Cornballz will be on an episode.

Yeeeeaaaaaah!
I just finished listening to the old A&J XFM shows recently, this is exactly what I need!

Good god, you aren't kidding. I've never clocked the connection before

That was like a funny episode of 'The Moral Maze'.

Great hearing Buxton on the defensive against torpedoes again - always a highlight during the old A&J shows. Theroux's quite a good foil. Baadaad still sharply avuncular, which is lovely to hear.

I almost missed the little hidden skit after the closing music.

IS this on the iTunes

tomasrojo · « **Reply #7 on:** September 21, 2015, 11:31:49 AM »

Or is there an RSS feed? (I know you can just download from the soundcloud page, so not all that important, but I like using RSS.)

Shameless Custard · « **Reply #8 on:** September 21, 2015, 11:43:29 AM »

Ahh, brilliant! 'Bout time Buxton did something new!

I got the first episode through the Podcast Addict app, so I'm guessing it's on iTunes etc

madhair60 · « **Reply #9 on:** September 21, 2015, 11:55:21 AM »

It is on iTunes, I am happy now

I'm so easily amused that I always giggle at the rambunctious childishness of "my name is Adam Buxton I'm a MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN"

I love Adam, but I found the podcast to be meandering and pretty much laugh-free. If it's a comedy podcast, it needs to be funnier. If it's a discussion podcast, it needs to be snappier.
It was just two blokes talking for the majority of the duration.

Pranet · « **Reply #14 on:** September 22, 2015, 08:03:23 PM »

I enjoyed it lots, myself.

I liked it okay. It is just the first one so he's probably going to settle into a format. It seems like he's reusing old conversations at the moment but once he starts doing new ones I think it'll pick up. Or he'll just stop immediately.

Fuck offfffff. Two blokes talking in a meandering fashion is exactly what I want from Buckles, and this was ace (and very funny, I thought.). I'll be very happy for this to continue as it is, like less intercut, more Buxtony Jon Ronson On.

This was pretty dull.

Second one's up already – it's an interview with Lianne La Havas.

Yeah, agreed

Thought it was very funny, myself. And I loved how laidback it all was

And Bad Dad! It'd be great if he had a little cameo at the end of each episode

Reminds me of what an endearing tightwad Adam is.

(I only pilfer breakfast material when I think lunch might be hard to obtain. These continentals bring it on themselves, with ham, bread and cheese practically asking for it instead of harder-to-pocket beans and scrambled eggs)

Steve Lampkins · « **Reply #21 on:** September 23, 2015, 02:30:30 PM »

I loved how he crumbled when shown the error of his stealing (yeah, I said it) ways.

holyzombiejesus · « **Reply #22 on:** September 23, 2015, 02:39:15 PM »

Adam Buxton makes it OK to say, 'oh, man' and for that I love him.

"What if everybody acted like that"

Wise Baaaaad Dad indeed.

Crabwalk · « **Reply #24 on:** September 30, 2015, 05:01:42 PM »

New one up. From the synopsis it looks like 48 minutes of pure Buckles fun with no interview.

Crabwalk · « **Reply #25 on:** October 01, 2015, 12:37:49 PM »

Lovely, low-key stuff. The Brian Eno affair was very heart-warming. I'm not sure anyone else would've gotten away with that without it seeming self-congratulatory, but Buxton deserved that little ego boost given the career knocks he's had.

A new Bond song next week!!

Beagle 2 · « **Reply #26 on:** October 01, 2015, 01:41:02 PM »

I'm finding these boring as fuck, I'm afraid.

Ringside · « **Reply #27 on:** October 01, 2015, 09:02:41 PM »

I really enjoyed the first one. It didn't make me laugh out loud, giggle or even chuckle, but I thought it was a good listen.

SimonJT · « **Reply #28 on:** October 03, 2015, 06:11:49 PM »

It's a mark of how lovable Buckules is that I found myself feeling genuinely delighted when the Eno story turned around - it's such a recognisable fear, making a dick of yourself towards someone you admire. I love the ads at the end too.

RickyGerbail · « **Reply #29 on:** October 03, 2015, 06:51:20 PM »

Buxton has always bordered on the edge of being really good, not quite getting there though imo. Fuck him.I'm much more impressed with the hollywood career of his ex-partner.
