RHLSTP with Richard Herring

Thom Tuck and Tom Rosenthal #20 - A Noble Failure - Rich has a visual surprise for his audience (and for you if you haven’t looked at the picture yet, that will infuriate his wife. His guests are stereo philosophy graduate T(h)oms, Tuck and Rosenthal. With TT the discussion turns to International schools, the meaning of life, straight to DVD Disney films and putting Macbeth on in an hour with two performers. With TR they chat about Jim Rosenthal ability to stop Hitler, how to get a free mug with your name on, why some men can’t grow facial hair and there’s a funny, though also serious chat about the penis and whether all of it is essential.Info on Tom Rosenthal’s tour here - https://www.tomrosenthal.net/Buy Thom Tuck’s DVD here https://www.gofasterstripe.com/cgi-bin/website.cgi?page=videofull&id=36670Info on RHLSTP tour here http://richardherring.com/rhlstpt/tour Hosted on Acast.

George Egg and Cally Beaton - RHLSTP Edfringe 2019 #19 - The Big Hub Is Open - Rich is meeting all the best celebrities backstage at the venue. You won’t believe who it was yesterday. Anyway no spoilers, my guests today are anarchist cook George Egg and gamekeeper turned poacher Cally Beaton. With George the discussion turns to old school variety, the perils of prop building, how to cook a meal in a hotel room and shaving your head to get a part. With Cally the chat is about changing career in mid-life and Joan Rivers, how much child care men do and why all men ruin it for Richard and how amazing it is that any relationship survives having children.Callie’s show details here https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/cally-beaton-invisibleGeorge Egg’s show here https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/george-egg-movable-feastRHLSTP http://richardherring.com/rhlstpt/tour Hosted on Acast.

RHLSTP Ed Fringe 2019 #18 Susan Murray and Alice Fraser - Robot Sex Again - Rich has found out why he’s not on TV and whose fault it is and he is NOT happy. Never mind his guests Susan Murray and Alice Fraser should cheer him up. Except that Susan is talking about plane crashes (and how to survive them), as well as the plight of middle aged comedians, being bitten in a mosh pit and when comedians have their Christmas party. Alice talks about the unlikely popularity of her show’s title this year, living in a poster, why men think they have to become birds to trick women into having sex with them and the polarisation of discourse. And how she went from being a fan of a podcast to being on it (not this one, but it could happen to you).Details for Susan’s show here https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/susan-murray-how-not-to-die-in-a-plane-crashDetails for Alice’s show here https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/alice-fraser-mythosRHLSTP Fringe run and tour http://richardherring.com/rhlstptt/tour Hosted on Acast.

RHLSTP Ed Fringe 2019 #17 Sukh Ojla and Tommy Tiernan - Older Than Sean - Rich is being stalked by Andy Murray’s mum, but he is also only one step removed from The Two Ronnies now. His guests are Sukh Ojla and Tommy Tiernan. With Sukh he discusses moving back in with your parents in your 30s, defiling the corpse of Pochahontas, curing depression with drugs (or a big poo) and being kissed by Jon Hamm (who has a Hamm hand). Tommy talks about how comedy inspiration works (or doesn’t), the incredible bravery of Derry Girls, why he’s looking forward to No Deal Brexit, what he wanted to call his son and performing a show that you’re not 100% happy with. It’s a terrible shame that this had to end, but hopefully both guests will be back.Tickets for Sukh’s show here - https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/sukh-ojla-for-sukh-s-sakeDetails of Tommy’s show - https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/tommy-tiernan-paddy-crazy-horseNot many RHLSTPs left now (until the tour) http://richardherring.com/rhlstpt/tour Hosted on Acast.

RHLSTP Ed Fringe 2019 #16 - Rich Wilson and Sarah Kendall - Nagasaki Spider-man -There’s so much controversy over Joke of the Fringe that Richard can’t work out what to think. Luckily he has guests to do his thinking for him - Rich Wilson and Sarah Kendall. With Rich that chat revolves around why you should never follow the advice of Rob Rouse, what happens when you pretend to be gay so you can work in a gay sauna, why talking a bit might help men’s mental health and honesty in comedy. With Sarah things get giddy as the pair try to work out if they are actually alive, how Victorians coped with mortality, the best place to sit on a plane and how brilliant Bryony Kimmings is. Richard finds this one the funniest of the run so far.See Rich Wilson’s show - Tickets here https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/rich-wilson-death-becomes-himListen to his podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/insane-in-the-men-brain/id1454275103See Sarah’s show - tickets here - https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/sarah-kendall-paper-planesSee RHLSTP - http://richardherring.com/rhlstpt/tour Hosted on Acast.

RHLSTP Ed Fringe 2019 #15 Fern Brady and Josie Long - Teeth and Ecstasy - Rich has seen some disturbing poster vandalism that has made him question who the real Jesus is, and his daughter has her first real catchphrase. He has two fabulous guests Fern Brady and Josie Long. With Fern he discusses how she got her fabulous poster shot, crying on the toilet, her return to Bathgate and Edinburgh clamminess. With Josie the talk turns to babies, corresponding with a Black Panther, touring without booking a venue and the incredible behind the scenes stories of her 1999 BBC New Comedian Award win.Fern’s extra show details here - https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/fern-brady-power-and-chaos-2Josie’s show details here - https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/josie-long-tenderRHLSTP Fringe and tour details http://richardherring.com/rhlstpt/tour Hosted on Acast.

RHLSTP Ed Fringe 2019 #14 Sunil Patel and Daliso Chaponda - Donkeys - Richard is losing his mind in the Groundhog Day of Edinburgh and still turning up at the wrong venues, but he so far has always made it to his own. His guests today are Sunil Patel and Daliso Chaponda. With Sunil he chats about comedy psychopaths, whether there are any good white people, missing out on sunilpatel.com, sharing accommodation with comedians and there’s some fascinating stuff for anyone who is interested in beards. With Daliso the talk revolves around insulting flags and when comedy has real consequences, how art can change its meaning over time, why so many people are being blacklisted these days, being a hero in Malawi and meeting Pamela Anderson.See Sunil’s show White Knight - https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/sunil-patel-white-knightSee Daliso’s show Blah Blah Blacklist - https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/daliso-chaponda-blah-blah-blacklistSee RHLSTP in Edinburgh or on tour http://richardherring.com/rhlstpt/tour Hosted on Acast.

RHLSTP Ed 2019 #13 Bryony Kimmings and Arabella Weir - Baulk - Richard is awaiting imminent arrest for the crime of trying to educate women about their bodies. He welcomes guests Bryony Kimmings and Arabella Weir. With Bryony he talks about her amazing show I’m a Phoenix, Bitch, leaking inner critics, how to write a film with Emma Thompson, glitter ball performance artists and whether he can get an arts council grant for stone clearing. With Arabella they chat about her show about her mother, being the first female Doctor, having David Tennant as a lodger, how the Fast Show cast came together, whether her Scottish accent cuts the mustard and they both fail to remember stuff about Bonjour la Classe effectively. Her bum did not look big in the throne.Tickets for Bryony here https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/bryony-kimmings-i-m-a-phoenix-bitchTickets for Arabella here https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/arabella-weir-does-my-mum-loom-big-in-thisInfo on RHLSTP run and tour http://richardherring.com/rhlstpt/tour Hosted on Acast.

RHLSTP Ed Fringe 2019 #12 Rob Auton and Lost Voice Guy - Baked Beans - Richard may be old or tired or both, but he has just experienced a potentially disastrous misunderstanding of Edinburgh geography that would be embarrassing for a newbie. Never mind, his guests are Rob Auton and Lee Ridley aka Lost Voice Guy. With Rob the discussion takes in working in advertising, Cold Feet, a shopping trolley full of items of the same colour and the worthlessness of existence given the infinity of time. Lee and Herring chat about what it’s like to win Britain’s Got Talent, what Simon Cowell is really like, the leap of faith that persuaded a self-conscious man who was unable to speak to attempt stand-up, the most ridiculous things strangers have asked him about his disability and whether anyone would ever heckle a man with no voice. If this podcast makes you want to give some money to Scope then please  Text 'HERRING' to 70085 to donate £5.

RHLSTP Ed Fringe 2019 #11 Richard Osman - The Oldest Person In Scotland - Richard has hopefully the definitive list of what people should avoid putting inside their chuffs and maybe we can leave that behind now - HIs guest will finally reveal what nationality he is - it’s TV’s Richard Osman. There is some discussion of who from Lee and Herring has had the more successful career (no spoilers) and whether there is any danger of a Slattery style breakdown from doing too many episodes of Pointless, whether House of Games will ever offer psychological training, how to get into the dying medium of TV and what is an appropriate height differential for lovers.. Plus why is the Express obsessed with Osman? Is he gay? And a also a brand new quiz show for Herring to lose, played live in front of and then involving the audience? It’s the only Edinburgh RHLSTP with one guest, but he’s the size of two guestsCome and see one of the remaining 10 shows or any of the tour shows http://richardherring.com/rhlstpt/tourBuy Emergency Questions Books and more http://gofasterstripe.com Hosted on Acast.
