I have never joined in on their text the nation feature but many have, and they have a special jingle for it which is impressively composed and sung by the two of them:

In last weeks podcast they feature a specialy composed version sung by an amateur choir from Baldock in Hertfordshire which is a town I know fairly well (or at least has a pub I know very well as you can see here, here, here and here). Unfortunately for the Choir Adam and Joe were not very impressed, you can listen to the choirs efforts and the following critique here:
