As It Occurs To Me

 * – ( View AfD View log )

The most in depth source currently being referenced is the Londonist article with a total of 343 words. I can’t tell how reliable the website is or any information about the author. I found another Londonist article, but it’s really short and according to WP:GNG “Multiple publications from the same author or organization are usually regarded as a single source for the purposes of establishing notability.” The Chortle.co.uk source has barely 100 words of content and I can’t tell who the author is or whether Chortle allows the comedians to publish news about themselves or not. The other Chortle.co.uk article says that the podcast won the Chortle Internet Award so maybe the podcast meets the requirements of WP:WEBCRIT, but the SNG also states that “These criteria are presented as rules of thumb for easily identifying web content about which Wikipedia should probably have an article. In almost all cases, a thorough search for independent, third-party reliable sources will be successful for content meeting one or both of these criteria. However, meeting these criteria is not a guarantee that Wikipedia will host a separate, stand-alone article on the website.” The remaining sources appear to all be either not independent, not secondary, or not reliable. I found a some WP:INTERVIEW sources from Independent.co.uk, Left Lion, and Den of Geek, but they would be considered primary sources. I wouldn't doubt it if the hosts of the podcast are notable, but the podcast does not WP:INHERIT notability from its hosts or guests. The contents of the article could be merged into Richard Herring, but the podcast appears to already be mentioned quite a few times on his page so a merge might not be worth the effort.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment: Regarding that piece from The Independent, I would actually call that more of a secondary source than a primary source. It has some interview quotes inserted, but there is a lengthy introduction by the author before any interview material is used, and even when the quotes start, the author is still using his own thoughts intermingled with snippets from interview quotes.  The other two are 100% interview material.  That said, the piece is really about Herring as opposed to the podcast. -2pou (talk) 12:54, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge to Richard Herring: I can't see enough to establish a separate page, but the Herring page has suprisingly little detail about AIOTM. There is material in Dario Llinares 2018 Podcasting: New Aural Cultures and Digital Media on AIOTM, but I can't access it. There is also this analysis of the running joke about "Pippa Middleton's disembodied anus" in an academic text (Julian McDougall, 2013 Barthes' Mythologies Today: Readings of Contemporary Culture. Taylor & Francis) - worth reading to appreciate the layers of meaning in the joke, but not enough to establish the podcast in its own right as notable.OsFish (talk) 04:43, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Richard Herring. Fails WP:GNG per nom. There's a paragraph about the show in his article. So, there's little or nothing to merge. SBKSPP (talk) 00:56, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
