Live at the Edinburgh Festival: Adam Hills and Janeane Garofalo

For our very first comedy podcast from Edinburgh, Miles Jupp is joined by a real pack of jokers ...

The Pajama Men, appearing every night at the Assembly Rooms, delight our crowd with a surreal sketch about a train journey. While Sarah Millican, crowned best newcomer at last year's festival, explains why she can't keep her hands off the Chippendales.

Aussie Adam Hills is back with a show called Inflatable, every night at the Assembly Rooms, and has few thoughts to offer on English cricket fans. Janeane Garofalo - you know, the star of 24, The West Wing and The Larry Sanders Show - shares a few memories of Scotland: chiefly getting punched in the face in Scotland. Ouch.

Finally, rock'n'rollers Dead Cat Bounce, appearing nightly at the Gilded Balloon, show us what they're made of with some songs about contraception and the sexuality of rugby players. Enjoy.


We're also giving you the opportunity to perform in front of our live, sold-out audience. If you're an aspiring comedian, enter our comedy competition.

And if you're in Edinburgh, we want to see you! Make sure you come to one of the recordings, every weekday at noon at the Gilded Balloon, Teviot Square. Entrance is free but you need a ticket - go to the Fringe box office, or the venue, or call 0131 622 6552.
