Summary
#9 - Apprentice Chemo - This is the final instalment of this bollocky podcast (for now) as Richard’s stand up takes us through his precautionary chemo and have some playdough on hand to make your own scale model of Richard’s tumour. His guest is the genius stand up comedian Simon Munnery who had the idea of having testicular cancer and doing a show about it decades before Herring. Plus another ball bag mail bag with two extraordinary emails from listeners. Thanks for listening, we will hopefully be back with more at some point, so keep your emails coming in to cihmbb@gmail.com.
And of course buy the book that accompanies this series from your favourite store https://geni.us/CanIHaveMyBallBackPB and come and see Richard do his stand up show on the subject in 2024. More news about that soon.
