RHLSTP #566 - Get Back! - Richard is back at the Podcast Room for an interview with a real comedy legend, Maurice Gran, co-creator of Birds of a Feather, Shine On Harvey Moon, Love Hurts and of course Goodnight Sweetheart. They chat about how Maurice and co-writer Laurence Marks seemed thrown together by fate, working with three of the Young Ones, but especially Rik Mayall in the New Statesman, how they got caught up in Michael Winner’s Bullseye, the unwitting strangers who inspired Birds of a Feather and the paucity of ambition of Gary Sparrow and how you can help the Goodnight Sweetheart adventures to continue by backing the kickstarter (unless Rich gets in there first with Goodnight Goodnight Sweetheart Sweetheart) and how Rich might finally find himself associated with Gary Sparrow after all.

#378 Test Card Girl - Rich has freaked himself out by attempting to cure the aphantasia (that he suffers with in silence). His guest is John Craven sanctioned Newshound Samira Ahmed. They discuss the legacy of Mary Whitehouse and whether it’s OK to point out the positive things that someone with some unacceptable views has done, the bravery of taking your employer to court in order to secure equal pay, whether appearing on Mastermind is more scary than being in a war zone, the young Richard Herring’s clumsy attempts at seduction, your mother being prouder of a puppet you than the real you, interviewing Sooty, being at the trail of Madonna’s stalker, whether Chrissie Hynde is terrifying or not and what happens when a young reporter can’t find the radio van.

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.
