Present
Adam and Joe began presenting the BBC Radio 6 Music Saturday morning show in October 2007.
Features on the show include 'Song Wars', where they both compose original compositions based on a common theme. Listeners then vote for which song they think is the best.
'Text the Nation' is another regular feature where listeners provide anecdotes based on a theme or question set by Adam and Joe. Themes have included 'Childhood Misconceptions' and 'Horror Film Ideas'. The 'Text the Nation' feature was also instrumental in the uncovering and subsequent popularisation of the Stephen! call and response.
Their show won a Broadcasting Press Guild Award in 2008 for best radio programme of the year.

Famous quotes containing the word present:
“The earliest instinct of the child, and the ripest experience of age, unite in affirming simplicity to be the truest and profoundest part for man. Likewise this simplicity is so universal and all-containing as a rule for human life, that the subtlest bad man, and the purest good man, as well as the profoundest wise man, do all alike present it on that side which they socially turn to the inquisitive and unscrupulous world.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“In sum, all actions and habits are to be esteemed good or evil by their causes and usefulness in reference to the commonwealth, and not by their mediocrity, nor by their being commended. For several men praise several customs, and, contrarily, what one calls vice, another calls virtue, as their present affections lead them.”
—Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)
“The lowest and vilest alleys of London do not present a more dreadful record of sin than does the smiling and beautiful countryside.”
—Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)
