What The Papers Say…

PRESS CLIPPINGS ARCHIVE – 2009
28th July – The estimable London Paper elects us the third best home-made podcast in their Top 10. READ IT.

27th July- According to The Guardian’s ‘Comedy Special’, we are the second-funniest podcast in the world, above Ricky Gervais and Frank Skinner and other much better-known funny podcasts. Incredible. But we are, at least, below Adam and Joe. We wouldn’t have it any other way. READ IT.

8 May – Double whammy! Articles about us in both The Independent (READ IT) and – very excitingly for our grandmothers – in The Jewish Chronicle (READ IT).

25 April – James Kettle, comedy critic for The Guardian, has written a quite charming review of us in Saturday supplement The Guide. It mentions us in the same breath as Charlie Kaufman and Lee & Herring and appears not to be taking the piss: we are dumbfounded, but very grateful. READ IT.

14 April – Following our nomination for a Sony Radio Academy Award (yay!), The London Paper runs a lovely feature on us. To their eternal credit, they interview both of us and don’t make us look utterly undesirable/weird. READ IT.

26 February – We are a ‘recommended podcast’ in Q Magazine, who say our ‘breathless repartee matches much mainstream radio’. Are you listening, mainstream radio executives…? READ IT

2008
17th September – The Times’s Web Watcher is very kind about the show – READ IT.

22nd February – The London Paper reviews Answer Me This on their blog. They call our show “beautifully, ridiculously funny.” Thanks! READ IT.

22nd January – Podwatch podcast gives Answer Me This! a 9/10 rating, claiming we are “what podcasting is all about: raw and rough around the edges, but damned entertaining and addictive”. LISTEN:

13th January – Our article for the Daily Telegraph’s Digital Life section is published. Happily, we manage to get the phrase “like famous people and vegetables, busking is a rare sight in Luxembourg” printed in a national newspaper. READ IT.

2007
8th December – We are Critic’s Choice in the Radio Times, alongside Melvyn Bragg’s In Our Time podcast, and The Guardian’s Book Club podcast. We’re not sure we’re worthy to be included amongst this company, but, by God, we certainly offer more laughs.

11th November – We are ‘Going Up’, according to the Sunday Express’s Trendometer! They say AMT is “independently produced and way funnier than most of the BBC big guns”.

13th June – The Independent recommends us in its ‘Download This’ section.

1st June – Our article about how we met and fell in, um, like is printed in All The Rage, the brilliant and “most accidentally read PDF magazine on the Internet”. READ IT.

24th March – The Times names us as ‘Podcast of the Week’ in its arts supplement The Knowledge. “Most podcasts are just two people wittering about random rubbish”, the review says, “but some duos do it very well.” READ IT.

16th March – The Financial Times, understandably tired of all that boring business news, find space to report on our Christmas pudding auction, which netted £64 for Comic Relief. It’s a “heart-warming tale”, they say. READ IT.

4th March – Lisa Mullen of Time Out magazine becomes officially the first journalist to write something about our podcast. And it’s something nice! Well done that woman. We are, she says, ‘Podcast of the Week’, a “genuinely funny and likable pair” and “well worth a listen”.
