RHLSTP Book Club 74 - Bec Hill
Book Club #74 - Horror Heights - A rare live Book Club coming to you from Tunbridge Wells, where we get to meet and chat to comedian Bec Hill about her brilliant stand up and meeting David Tennant AND talk about her fab series of books Horror Heights. What would happen if slime came to life? How difficult is it write a series of books that all take place on the same weekend, with different protagonists and interweaving story arcs? Was Round The Twist a big influence on the author and much more. Plus there’s emergency questions an unusual pouch to keep children’s teeth in. It’s a bit of a RHLSTP/ RHLSTP Book Club hybrid, but none the worse for it!

RHLSTP 478 - Stuart Goldsmith
#478 Surprise Postman - Richard is in Bath, but spent the night in Cheddar and is wondering about what the last few years of his life might hold for him. His guest is rival podcaster and stand-up, Stuart Goldsmith. They talk about Stuart’s brief acting career, whether Richard listens to The Comedians’ Comedian Podcast, why Stuart might need to go off for a wee at any moment (spoiler - he doesn’t), stand up tips, whether we’re all fucked because of climate change, how Stuart teaches business people resilience and a largely visual surprise for Richard to cap off a terrific chat about comedy and podcasting and how we’re all doomed.

RHLSTP 477 - Rob Reiner
#477 Magic Bullet - Here’s a bonus remote podcast (because we’re not doing enough at the moment) with superstar actor and director and now podcast documentary (if you will pocumentary) maker, Rob Reiner. With limited time, they discuss which of his films is the greatest of all time, what you need to make a perfect improvised movie, the first toilet flush on US Prime Time TV and appearing in the Batman TV series. But mostly they talk about Rob’s fascinating new podcast series “Who Killed JFK?” and the flimsiness of the official account of the assassination, why it means so much to Rob and why it’s important to get to the truth. Plus what it was like sharing a duplex with Albert Brooks and the moving story of remaking the Princess Bride with his dad, Carl.

RHLSTP Book Club 73 - Lou Sanders
Book Club #73 - What's That Lady Doing? - It’s another live Book Club, this time recorded at the Leicester Square Theatre with comedian and ice skater Lou Sanders. They talk about why the time was right for Lou to detail the funny (and occasionally shocking and sad) escapades from her life, why it’s tricky to write about family and how to get the balance right, why shame is universal and needs to be embraced and accepted in order to move on, how most people are plagued by self-doubt even if they don’t look like they are, what Andi Peters did to deserve limited retribution, whether being touched inappropriately by a masseuse is cheating and whether there is more to the Universe than what we can see and if all of us believe in stuff that might not be real in order to get us through life.

RHLSTP 476 - Peter Richardson
#476 The Mike That Never Was - Richard is back in the witch-burning city of Exeter and this time his guest is Comic Strip Presents legend Peter Richardson. They talk about how Peter meet Nigel Planer and invented the character of Neil, the early days of the Comic Strip in Raymonds Revue Bar, why it was a good thing that he didn’t end up playing Mike in the Young Ones (though he might well be wrong about that), how he shocked Steve Martin, getting bottles of piss thrown at him by Heavy Metal fans at Donnington, his instrumental part in Stella Street and why the Comic Strip Presents about Boris Johnson never saw the light of day. Plus the lackadaisical attitudes to Health and Safety that saw him confronted by the police outside Buckingham Palace. An incredible delve into an amazing time for comedy! AND the Keith Allen question is posed.

Customer Reviews
Best Comedian and Guest Pod
The original ‘comedian talking to a guest’ pod and by far the best. For over a decade Richard Herring has been setting the bar for podcast guests and the inimitable Emergency Questions he asks them. National treasures Bob Mortimer and Sir Michael Palin, comedy royalty James Acaster, and Katherine Ryan, showbiz A-list Harry Shearer and Brett Goldstein, music sensations Suggs, Louise Wener, academics Alice Roberts and Mary Beard... They’ve all graced the RHLSTP guest’s chair. What more could you want?
Long live one ball!
Richard Herring’s rahistalapah as the cool kids are saying is everything it’s cracked up to be and more. Here’s to many more healthy seasons.
Richard Who?
I think I stumbled across this podcast because James Acaster was on it. I have no real knowledge of Richard Herring’s career but RHLSTP is often laugh out loud funny.
