I was 19 years old interrailing through Britain with my 16-year old brother and our couchsurfers introduced us to the mighty boosh in Nottingham. Our host was so happy we dug it as hard as her, so she gave us the DVDs. We have watched it so many times... and I have to say that I am surprised how funny they still are to me. This is art- best characters, setting, storytelling,...everything! But these radio series show the base of it all: it is the wirting really. Puns, references, the songs, the invention of the crimp. I feel like this souvenir from Nottingham will be a cherished piece for all my life.

I can visualize EVERY. SINGLE. DETAIL. Love it

That is a kind of fresh madness

I've always found something about The Mighty Boosh very calming.

Women would swoon when Tommy shuffled into the room

"Do you understand the concept?" "YES!" "You can come in but you can never leave.." "That's fine.." "No, listen to me.., it's like a membrane.."

Ive been a Boosh fan since it aired on Adult Swim. Ive rewatched the show dozens of times and just now am I getting around to the radio show. Hearing it feels like lost media. Like it was recorded but never filmed😢

These guys must have all the Syd Barret solo albums

This entire episode is so amazing, especially the halfway point to the very end. The 'escape sequence' is such a tightly-packed, perfectly-paced string of jokes.

He’s also “one” of the mutants when Bambridge calls out their names he says “Ayoade back in your cage”.

I was 25 when I found the Boosh. Just hit 40 and found this. How wonderful.

Julian Barrett describing Noel as someone in the 1940s being imprisoned for being a witch was so on the nose I laughed uncontrollably so loudly that I woke up my cat who is now suing me for emotional distress.

Hearing the start of the Boosh is amazing, especially now its been removed from Netflix - absolute love this show Forever going to be hooked on this troupe

Get the box set on DVD, i have to watch the whole series at least once a year and if i’m ever down i’ll listen to this radio series, never fails to cheer me up. I got into the Boosh when my daughters were young teens and they introduced me and my husband we loved it and went to see them live in London and Brighton.

I love this! Nothing makes me laugh so much. Every minute is hilarious. And the songs are so amazing!

Time for six new episodes of the almighty Boosh.

If they're too old to do live action I'd love it if they continued Boosh in audio format as it gives them free reign on very little budget

the song is such a banger wtf

I haven't heard this in years it's still funny

Going of track here but there’s a guy at work called Vince who every day I say to him “Vince Noir - Rock n roll star”....think he’s getting a bit fed up of it lol Lastly, thanks for taking the time to upload these to KZread, I very much appreciated it as I don’t even own a CD player anymore to listen to it.

Why does Ayoade sound like he’s talking with false teeth in or he’s got peanut butter stuck to the roof of his mouth?

i didn't expect to hear richard- i-

Could not have got the whole cast for this?

Tommy Nookah???

Yeah I thought so too. I believe he also played Bainbridge in the TV pilot. I would have thought he would be perfect but ultimately the changes they made for TV were for the best. I don’t think he shows up in until the second series.

This was the original Tommy character and I’m sure that Ayoade intended the delivery to be as it’s heard as it matches his signature style
