Oliver and Zaltzman in Times podcast

Tuesday 16th October 2007, 4:10am

Satirical double-act John Oliver and Andy Zaltzman have reunited in making a satirical podcast for The Times entitled The Bugle.

The Bugle has been described as "an audio newspaper for the visual world", with John Oliver reporting from stories in the USA, and Zaltzman reporting in the UK. However, a downloadable version of The Bugle can be read as a PDF file.

Oliver and Zaltzman had worked together previously on Fringe shows, and on Radio 4 shows The Department and Political Animal. However, the double-act had to stop for a while after Oliver took a job as the British correspondent for America's The Daily Show.

Episode one is now available to download from The Times or iTunes.
