Adam talks with Sara Pascoe and Richard Ayoade, (two British comedians who have also read and written, more than one book) about J.D. Salinger's classic 1951 novel 'The Catcher in the Rye'.SYNOPSIS: The story begins with 17 year old Holden Caulfield recuperating following a breakdown. The rest of the book is an account from Holden's point of view, of the events that lead to that breakdown, which took place the previous Winter in the days following his expulsion from Pencey Prep, a private school. Holden's roommate is a meathead called Stradlater who has sexy plans for Jean Gallagher, a childhood friend of Holdens who he feels protective of. A a fight ensues after which Holden spends two days killing time in New York before he has to face his parents and inform them of his expulsion. We learn that things have been difficult for Holden since the death of his younger brother Allie when Holden was 13. From time to time Holden dwells on the memory of Allie's old baseball glove on which his little brother had written poems to read during boring baseball games. Now Holden entertains hopes of moving in with his older brother DB, a WWII vet who has become a successful screenwriter in Hollywood. During his visit to New York, a lonely Holden visits a jazz club and spends much of his remaining cash buying drinks for three older women, after which he arranges an abortive liaison with Sunny, a teenage prostitute and falls foul of her thuggish pimp Maurice. Later Holden arranges a meeting with an old girlfriend, Sally Hayes, and is briefly looked after by a well meaning teacher Mr Antolini. But Mr Antolini's affections are interpreted as predatory by Holden who ends up, distraught and emotional, creeping into his parents house to see the only person in the world he feels he can really talk to - his little sister Phoebe.Thanks to Anneka Myson for additional editing and Seamus Murphy-Mitchel for production support on this episode.RELATED LINKS'SALINGER' (2013 DOCUMENTARY FEATURE)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JSFr7YdKLE'J.D.

Apologies for any emotional scarring this may cause.Hello. Adam here with a few notes and links related to this episode for you.My rambly conversation with Charlie was recorded in March of 2018, in the west London house where he lives with his wife Connie and their two young children. Charlie started his media career writing about video games in the 90s and we began by reminiscing about our childhood fascination with those blocky virtual worlds.We also talked about Nathan Barley (Channel 4, 2005), Black Mirror (Channel 4, Netflix, 2011 - present), how comedic fury can be taken at face value, smoking, defecating, and how we would cope if we were on reality TV or facing armageddon and didn’t have Bear Grylls to advise us.

Adam talks with American musician Eleanor Friedberger.Hi. Adam Buxton here with some notes and links for you about this week’s guest.Eleanor and her brother Matthew formed the core of The Fiery Furnaces, who put out a series of brilliantly strange records from 2000 - 2011. Matthew and Eleanor now work on solo projects but haven’t officially laid the The Fiery Furnaces to rest.My conversation with Eleanor was recorded in February 2016 and we talked about some of her favourite albums, her working relationship with her brother, whether or not fans should be interested in the private lives of the artists they admire, and her lyrics. Eleanor also performed a version of one of her songs exclusively for the podcast. And in my outro waffle I bollock on about a couple of music documentaries I enjoyed this week. No, really, you’re welcome.FIERY FURNACES MUSIC MONTAGE in the intro includes clips from:Benton Harbour Blues (from Bitter Tea, 2006)Never (from Bitter Tea, 2006)Evergreen (from EP, 2005)Two Fat Feet (from Gallowsbird’d Bark, 2003)Chief Inspector Blancheflower (from Blueberry Boat, 2006)Tropical Iceland (from Gallowsbird’d Bark, 2003)Thanks to Séamus Murphy-Mitchell for production support.Music and jingles by Adam BuxtonRELATED LINKSELEANOR’S FAVOURITE ALBUMS (THE QUIETUS WEBSITE) (2016)http://thequietus.com/articles/19617-eleanor-friedberger-favourite-albums-interview?page=6ELEANOR FRIEDBERGER - MAKE ME A SONG (2018)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmjcSz8aV1YELEANOR FRIEDBERGER - HE DIDN’T MENTION HIS MOTHER (2015)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Dj0s16RMa0ELEANOR FRIEDBERGER - MY MISTAKES (2011)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRUOoSKt6KgTHE FIERY FURNACES - POLICE SWEATER BLOOD VOW (2006)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atFoVNJxr7cTHE FIERY FURNACES - CHIEF INSPECTOR BLANCHEFLOWER (2004)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qTkqFvftcETHE FIERY FURNACES - WHAT’S IN MY BAG?
