RHLSTP #565 - Foundation - Richard is back in the Podcast Room where he is joined by comedian, author and now sitcom star, Rosie Jones. They discuss rising from researcher to star and the celebs who gave her the time of day before she was famous, how her sitcom Pushers has disabled actors but isn’t about disability and whether it was like the White Lotus behind the scenes, her upcoming tour “I Can’t Tell What She’s Saying” and why you should ignore the negative comments online, finding your tribe and how unlucky Richard is with his tribe, setting up the Rosie Jones Foundation and the joy of appearing on Taskmaster and why people aren’t really invited on for their athleticism and why it’s lucky that the Minister for Disability didn’t turn up for the Scope Awards.

#377 Piss Canal - Richard’s son has come up with a brilliant new emergency question (and is thus finally helping to pay for his upkeep), though is it worth it for the Hell of attending a three hour kids’ party? Richard’s guest is fabulous writer/actor/comedian Jamie Demetriou. They talk about how many holes are in a ghost’s sheet, the genesis of Stath Lets Flats and why the casting was crucial to its success, working with a sibling, the inconvenience of having a bladder, what it’s like having all your clothes stolen and how it’s hard to write about North London when you’re lockdown alone in LA.

RHLSTP Book Club #141 - All the Colours of the Dark - Rich talks to the inspiring author of All The Colours Of The Dark, Chris Whitaker, about his fantastically engaging and impressive novel. They chat about how someone from Hertfordshire has ended up writing such an authentic book about America in the 20th Century, his writing process and why he spent a year just writing dialogue between the main characters, how you approach writing about dark subjects such as child abduction and murder in a respectful way, whether he was inspired by the X Files for one character in particular and Chris still works in Bishops Stortford library. Chris also talks very openly about his own troubled childhood and how this has informed the novel, but also led to him becoming a writer and how surreal journey of having bestselling novels, meeting Presidents and getting this book made into a huge TV series. A really inspiring podcast for any aspirant writers, though the take home is that success comes from hard work and being immersed in your idea. Don’t miss this one.

RHLSTP #564 - Joel Dommett’s Lactating Nipple - Recorded at the Podcast Room in Central London, Richard meets comedian, actor and rock God Nick Helm. They chat about the unexpected death of Dennis Waterman, working with/embarrassing yourself in front of Mark Williams, appearing on Eastenders, appearing in two films together in lockdown, though mainly waiting to go on, how Nick became avuncular to his co-star in Uncle, how TV careers come without trained therapists and Nick’s journey from depression to contentment and whether Rich is the only comedian with ADHD or if he’s clearly living in denial. Plus was Someone Like’s Yoghurt the worst comedy experience of 2005 and what’s the recipe for a great and enjoyable tour show

#376 Barking at the Plumber - Hey everyone, it’s a surprise transatlantic RHLSTP with one of the greatest stand-ups in the world, and more importantly one of the greatest people, Maria Bamford. They chat about living without hot water, comedy merch, trying out challenging material to James Corden’s audience, why it’s OK to do (trigger warning) comedy about mental illness and suicidal thoughts (do contact the Samaritans or your local help lines if this is an issue that affects you), how to create a stand up special, why we need mediocrity in comedy, working with Judd Apatow and more excitingly the Storybots and why we’d be better off as kangaroos.

RHLSTP #563 - Barry Norman’s Pickled Onions - Richard is very proud of his toilet based pedantry. His guest is returning hero Timkey. They chat about his fantastic new film. The Ballad of Wallis Island and how he managed to get Carey Mulligan on board, plus Richard’s impressive roster of unreleased film appearances, plus Tim’s latest book of poetry, an hilarious but poignant and moving story of his time in Hollywood and the influence of Charles Bukowski. There is a 10 minute discussion about Tim’s love for Last of the Summer Wine, which suggest he doesn’t love it as much as he claims and of course another episode of timkey the monkey and his magic flute. Plus Tim suggests a guest that will have Off Menu quaking in their boots and eating dinosaurs.

#375 Coolio Versus Mini Me - Richard is furious about the new incarnation of Big Cook Little Cook and is going to be schooled in farts by his audience. His guest is Stewart Lee lookalike and broadcaster Terry Christian. They chat about the professionalism of June Whitfield, being at the centre of the emerging Madchester music scene, the incredible success of the Word, but the disconnect between the posh production team and the working class Christian, arguing with Piers Morgan, an incredible argument in the Big Brother House, stand up comedy as therapy and the tensions around working with Mark Lamarr.

RHLSTP #562 - Egg Cupboard - Richard has had a life-changing accident on the way to the theatre, but hopefully a chat with Amy Hoggart will distract him from his woes. They talk about whether Lembit Opik is qualified to live in space, why the second Trump term is not as fecund for satirists as the first, Ed Gamble’s weird fish obsession, Richard’s strange peccadillo regarding Amy’s grandfather, men pretending to be feminists on her podcast (https://tinkmedia.co/interviews/femanism), the difficulty of placing yourself on the political spectrum, why Richard’s reading glasses are getting increasing dirty, how Amy’s parents got together, working as a doula and some delightful rambles into the tumbleweed and back again, like a proper old school RHLSTP.

#374 I Sure Love Motorcycling - Richard has nearly killed someone in his audience and has finally found a good reason for having kids. He’s also potentially about to destroy the universe as his guest is Herring doppelgänger (even down to the number of testicles) Charley Boorman. He talks about what he got paid for appearing in Deliverance, hanging out with movie stars (past and future) as a kid, thanks to his amazing film director dad, giving Lee Marvin a lift, how planned family trip to Europe turned into the Long Way Round, how no one recognised Ewan McGregor on the set of Star Wars and the extraordinary story of how Charley got back on his bike after smashing himself to bits. Twice.

RHLSTP Book Club 139 - The Golden Age of Children’s TV - Richard chats with cult TV expert Tim Worthington about his fabulous book about the TV that people of Richard’s age (and a bit older and a bit younger) grew up with. They discuss quite how huge an influence these shows were on Richard’s developing brain, what makes some shows memorable and others not, how some of these shows exist in our minds from before we have any other memories, the amazing creative teams behind successes like Thunderbirds, Bagpuss and Camberwick Green, when Norris Macwhirter was bested by a Simon Quinlank prototype, whether Johnny Ball had a bar of gold on his back, why Richard cried over a TV show when he moved to Cheddar and who N’kima was.

#561 Nut Lifter - Richard has had some trouble getting his show props through customs (but not back again). His guest is comedy legend Paul Whitehouse. They chat about plastering for Fry and Laurie, acting with Michael Caine, how Loadsamoney stormed the comedy world and disappeared again, the moment that defined Gone Fishing, the sweaty men from Dragons’ Den, how Smashie and Nicey worked on the third attempt, how Vinnie Jones nearly punched Uncle Albert and the whole amazing career of "the greatest actor of all time”.

#373 The End of History - Richard has more terrifying news about butterflies and his son’s attempts to follow in his footsteps. His guest is the only person who can follow Paul Chuckle, historian and broadcaster Dr Janina Ramirez. They talk about (hopefully) living through a major historical event, the incredible range of inspirational Goddesses, how we’re able to discover more about the history of regular people (and women) by shifting traditional focus, what it’s like to handle (and drop) incredible historical artefacts, the slice of luck that preserved the Sutton Hoo treasure, how to escape a crocodile and exciting news about Nina’s next project. Plus finally someone who is in a position to properly answer the Stephen King/King Stephen question.

RHLSTP Book Club 138 - My Previous Life in Comedy - Richard does a rare face to face Book Club with one of his childhood heroes Johnny Ball, talking about the first part of his autobiography, which deals with his childhood and first forays into showbiz. They chat about how close Johnny came to being in the Beatles, how Ball shares some ball-related experience with Richard, briefly being in a double act with Bud Flanagan, Johnny’s remarkable memory, compering for the Rolling Stones, why he pivoted from stand-up comedy to children’s TV and why it’s taken him til his mid-80s to write this book (and his determination to write much more).

#560 One Ball and Boe - Richard is sad to note the death of a man who has fuelled and spoiled his erotic fantasies. His guest John Kearns, has finally been allowed into the Leicester Square Theatre on the fifth or sixth time on the pod - it’s the thoughtful and measured John Kearns. In a return to endless old-school RHLSTPs it’s a sprawling pod, covering very old tortoises, Raymond Briggs, Rich’s dad giving a talk at the BFI, the effects of the Taskmaster bounce (or plunge in Rich’s case), rumours about Top Coppers and much more. Too much more. Gloriously too much more.

#372 Arthur Askey's Chair - Richard is wondering if comedians might be the solution to all the world’s problems (they won’t be), but delighted to be back at the Leicester Square Theatre for the start of Season 23 of this amazing podcast. His guest is legendary comedian and DJ Paul Chuckle. They chat about Paul’s incredible 59 year career, from working mens’ clubs and routines with Charlie Cairoli, through talent shows and learning the craft to the big break with Chuckle Vision. What injuries did the boys have to endure for comedy? What was it like to be so recognisable? How did the distinctive Chuckle look develop? And how did they come up with the iconic To Me, To You. Plus working with Tinchy Strider and moving into DJing. Paul talks movingly about losing his brother/partner and best friend and why he needed to carry on working. And finally the truth about his moped accident.

RHLSTP Book Club 137 - I See Buildings Fall Like Lightning - Richard talks to the novelist Keiran Goddard about his affecting and fantastic second novel, I See Buildings Fall Like Lightning. They discuss the themes of the work including the changing nature of friendship, how we are encourage to escape our roots, the truth about gig economy and why people turn to drink and drugs, the decision to write the book from the perspectives of each friend, whilst retaining the idea of the hive mind that a group of friends have, having your work turned into filmed entertainment and why a lot of people turned up expecting to be extras in Peaky Blinders, the humour that fills this sometimes bleak work and how you feel when you watch an old video knowing everyone in it is now dead.
