  • 132. Retro RHLSTP 132 - Sarah Keyworth

    01:06:43||Ep. 132
    #422 P*ssing On Richard - Richard has had his annual cancer check up and it’s mainly good news, but something weird is going on in his scrotum (though he hates to talk about it). His guest is comedian Sarah Keyworth. They talk about the terrible behaviour of the Sheriff of Nottingham, how to explain modern day notions of gender to the old and confused, the previously unexplored positive sides of being in a human centipede, how comedy can help us cope with tragedy and our darkest thoughts, how marriages manage to survive for 40 years, whether Sliding Doors is a great film or definitely isn’t and whether masculinity is defined by stopping a child being hit by a baseball bat. Though there are some serious moments, this is a really skittish and funny chat!Trigger warning - this podcast mentions suicidal thoughts.Come and see us live http://richardherring.com/rhlstpBuy Richard’s new book here http://gofasterstripe.com/ballSUPPORT THE SHOW!See details of the RHLSTP LIVE DATES Watch our TWITCH CHANNELBecome a badger and see extra content at our WEBSITE Buy DVDs and books from GO FASTER STRIPE

    Newsround Special - Epstein File interview - Always ahead of the grown up news, Richard has procured an interview with the man at the heart of the Epstein Files story, Randy Andy Mountbatten-Windsor-Balmoral. Randrew Andrew explains what’s going on in the pictures with the woman on the ground, why he never met Epstein, why he has too much honour, why he can’t wear shoes and what he was actually doing on the date the new accuser says he was with her. It’s an explosive interview that will surely be shown on all major news channels tonight, thus reigniting Richard’s failed career.Hooray!Tuesday February 3rd 2026 - Eggheads Are People Too - After the explosive interview over the weekend, a regular newsround returns examining the recent statements by FIFA President Gianni Infantino and why he should be judged by his deeds and words and not by his appearance. We have a special interview with a fellow egg-headed celebrity to show just how far egghead prejudice can reach and hopefully help open people’s eyes to this derided condition.Thursday February 5th 2026 - Peanut Pile - After the success of getting Randrew Andrew kicked out of his house, the Newsround team turn their attention to the Prime Minister, whether he can survive and how good a job he is doing. Once again we beat the Lamestream media to a huge exclusive, which you can only get by watching our Craven Newsround.Friday 6th February 2026 - Chinese Hotel Sex Cameras - Newsround is back, despite Rich spending most of the day waiting for his car to be fixed. Ally and he discuss “Eric”, the most hypocritical man in the news at the moment, who was shocked to see he’d been caught on a Chinese Sex Camera, but only because he loved watching videos of people caught on Chinese sex cameras. Who will be caught on the Newsround Sex Camera? Tune in to find out.

    RHLSTP Book Club #168 - Do You Believe in Ghosts? - Rich is back at the podcast to talk to fellow TWTTIN alumnus, Danny Robins about his fun and spooky kids’ book “Do You Believe in Ghosts?” They chat about the amazing media empire that he’s built up around his interest in spectres, how his play was partly responsible for Lily Allen’s new album, whether getting kids interested in the supernatural risks sending them down conspiracy theory rabbit holes, risking his own kids’ safety to put his theories to the test, the importance of an open mind with a healthy dose of scepticism, playing the Albert Hall and the power of darkness.Buy the book here - https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/do-you-believe-in-ghosts-danny-robins/55ad139b21c34ac4SUPPORT THE SHOW!See details of the RHLSTP LIVE DATES Watch our TWITCH CHANNELBecome a badger and see extra content at our WEBSITE Buy DVDs and books from GO FASTER STRIPE

    01:12:01||Season 33, Ep. 5
    RHLSTP #597 - University of Bee-Keeping - Richard is back at the Podcast Room where he is chatting with one-liner king, Mark Simmons. They discuss the difficulties of producing a good succinct joke, how rarely Richard manages it, how the language used can serve as a hidden copyright sign in the DNA of the thing and what can be done if someone nicks a good one to make into a greetings card. Plus the perils of being the support act for a sore-throated Seann Walsh, whether the man at Pret fancied or pitied Richard, living with a poltergeist and the importance of giving your audience something to laugh at. Plus why it’s fun to punctuate one-liners with patience testing nonsense. See Mark on tour - https://marksimmons.co.uk/live-dates/See RHLSTP live - http://richardherring.com/rhlstpSUPPORT THE SHOW!See details of the RHLSTP LIVE DATES Watch our TWITCH CHANNELBecome a badger and see extra content at our WEBSITE Buy DVDs and books from GO FASTER STRIPE
