Joe Thomas and James Buckley, best known for their roles in The Inbetweeners, are teaming up again for a new weekly podcast, Joe and James Fact Up. Produced by Audio Always, the series launches today.
Each week, the pair will bring a fact that has caught their attention, debating it before inevitably going off on tangents. Expect discussions about whether crisps all expire on a Saturday, or if the lift close button really works. The show promises to explore some of life’s most pointless but oddly satisfying mysteries through the lens of their offbeat humour and long-standing friendship.
Thomas says: “I’ve always loved the facts you can pull out anywhere that get people talking, so debunking them is going to be pretty fun, especially when I get to do it with one of my good mates. Things do get pretty weird from my end, so whoknows where this podcast journey will lead to.”
Buckley adds: “I’ve always loved working with Joe, so I’m excited to just spend time with him speaking nonsense... It’s basically what we do already, but with a mic attached. So let’s see how well that turns out.”
Episodes are available on all major podcast platforms.
