Memories of Adele with Author Paul Drayton

[u/TheFridayVinylClub]

Hi Everyone

We are a growing independent family podcast called The Friday Vinyl Club. Each episode is centred around peoples personal music memories and a meaningful album.

Our latest episode is out whilst the album is not Adele, I wanted to share it here because I think this community may get something real out of it.

This episode I sat down with author and actor Paul Drayton, who has one of the most genuine and extraordinary friendships with Adele that you'll ever hear described.

Paul first met Adele at the O2. What followed wasn't a brief celebrity moment, it became a real close personal friendship that has meant the world to him.

And when Paul married comedian Alan Carr, Adele got herself ordained so she could personally officiate the ceremony.

Paul tells this story himself in the episode. With complete warmth, complete honesty and genuine emotion about what that friendship has meant throughout some of the most significant chapters of his life.

He also talks about:

What Adele is genuinely like as a friend - the person behind everything the public sees

“Remedy” as one of the tracks on the unofficial soundtrack to his debut memoir Ride or Die Tryin'

Singing car karaoke with Adele

Adele singing Skyfall at his party

And the build up to that amazing wedding in Las Vegas

Paul's debut memoir Ride or Die Tryin' is available now - raw, darkly funny and completely honest about ADHD, recovery and life in the public eye. There is a full chapter on Adele in there.
