Retro RHLSTP 88 - Tony Slattery

Retro 88 - Carry On Cocaining - Richard is worried that his comments about a royal might lead to his ultimate demise... buy he's more worried about extreme vaginal temperatures. He's got two great gigs to distract his lazy ass, Isma Almas and Tony Slattery. With Isma he discusses how it's possible to tick too many boxes, performing in a burkha, why comedy is the perfect job if you hate working and they hatch a foolproof plan to get back at their critics.. Tony chats about his career and the factors that led to its implosion, how much coke he might have been taking a week, Kenneth Branagh's campness, the harshness of an industry that loves you when you're winning and the lessons he has learned. It's really brilliant, so stop reading this and listen to it. Become a member at [https://plus.acast.com/s/rhlstp] (https://plus.acast.com/s/rhlstp) . Hosted on Acast.

RHLSTP Book Club 124 - Kate Summerscale

Book Club #124 - The Peepshow - Richard talks to former obituary writer,KateSummerscale about her fantastic book about murder and post-war London,KateSummerscale. They discuss whether the crimes of Christie are as familiar to younger people as they were to us in our childhoods, how you approach writing about such a gruesome and sensitive subject and the modern day events that inspired the book, how the 1950s were rather more grim in general than people seem to remember and how misogyny and racism pervade this story, trying to understand the kind of monster who would commit these crimes and why we want to read about them (and why journalists and authors want to write about them), the importance of making sure the victims of the crime are respectfully remembered, the enduring mystery of why Timothy Evans confessed to two of the murders and the chilling monster of the invisible everyman at the heart of these terrible crimes.

RHLSTP Book Club 122 - Marc Morris

Book Club #122 - The Anglo Saxons - It’s the last Book Club of the year and we’re heading back to pre-conquest Britain for the history of the Anglo Saxons withMarcMorris. Rich andMarctalk about how little people know about this period and how most of the things they do know never happened, why having very few sources to work from doesn’t make this light and easy work, howMarcdiscovered the best way to cover this sprawling and tumultuous half a millennium was to tell it through the stories of various individuals and why unfortunately all these individuals had to be male, why the Venerable Bede is good if you have an ill cow, but not always so good if you want the facts of what happened, which Anglo Saxon king allegedly shat in the font at his baptism, which king had a threesome with his wife and her mum and which king came close to becoming a cropper in Cheddar Gorge. Plus the skill required to combine academia with readability and whether comedians and historians would have survived the departure of the Romans and the arrival of the Vikings (no they wouldn’t).

#542 Twirling Scary Spice- Richard has been to the Taskmaster experience and is furious to have broken his perfect record of victory. His guest is another Taskmaster alumni, who has turned her appearance into ticket sales (unlike Richard) Fern Brady. They discuss her triumph at the Sky Arts Awards and why she gave a shout out to Irvine Welsh, magic mushrooms, why her tour poster involves her lactating into someone’s mouth, why she doesn’t want to follow the narrative of TV shows regarding her autism, why Richard thinks she is one of the best stand ups we have (though doesn’t seem to know where she’s from), how a doctor made her think she was going to die for a night and how that helped her write her book, coping and not coping with her new found fame and why Richard is funny even when he’s just in the audience.

RHLSTP Book Club 118 - Chris Hoy

Book Club #118 - All That Matters - Richard talks to the winner of 6 Olympic gold medals (and one silver) ChrisHoyabout his fabulous, moving and positive autobiography All That Matters. Although Chris says it’s not Top Trumps his cancer makes Richard’s look like a paper cut and the book is bold and matter of fact about the impact of a non-sugar coated stage 4 cancer diagnosis, but whilst acknowledging the spiral of grief that this inevitably caused, Chris discusses the catharsis of writing about it, applying sports psychology to the situation and seeing the positives of life rather than constantly worrying about death, which could come to any of us at any time. He talks about his own particular deeply unpleasant chemotherapy and the reasons he endured it and how he got through it, how comedy can help us through and how he hopes he might be around for a while yet. Plus how he coped with life after the Olympic victory and trying to avoid Alan Partridgisms. And how making the most of life isn’t just about bucket lists, but realising what matters in your life and how lucky we are to be here. A remarkable Olympian and incredible man and yet a regular guy too.
