Hello, my fine friends. Welcome to my podcasts. Thank you very much for downloading another podcast.

I've got a few Rahalasper's coming up. We've got Harry Shearer coming on the 1st of July at the

Lester Square Theatre from The Simpsons and Spinal Tap. Is that not enough for you? There'll be other guests as well.

There's another Rahalospon, the 8th of July at Les Square Theatre do come along and we've

recently announced some more for September, November, October and November. Actually I've put the

November one in twice in the gig guide so I'll change that. That's just a note to myself. Also,

I'm doing a few gigs starting to work up material. Some of them are sold out but I'm doing the 20th of

May. I'm doing a benefit for

bollocks to cancer at Bethnal Green, at Rich Mix. Do come to that if you can. That will probably

be mainly testicle-based material. And the other gigs have sold out. This one in Joy, which one

in St. Albans? That's no good to you. And remember I'm at the stand three for the first 12

nights of the Edinburgh Fringe this year. Links at richartaring.com slash Rahalesterper,

richargetarian.com slash gigs. And there is a couple of bonus gigs in the Edinburgh

fringe as well, which we don't have full details for yet. So 14 chances to see me in the Edinburgh Fringe. Please come along if you can.

podcast hello welcome to another rehearse of a book club this is the second part of my interview

about thirst with john robins it's such an important book we have to do two episodes on it john

it's the book of the generation of our generation.

Obviously, it's a book about your relationship with drink, as someone who has had a problematic life with drink.

Do listen to the first episode if you haven't listened to this one. There's some things I wanted to pick out.

I wanted to do this quote from Amy Liptrot that I think's great.

But also Amy Liptrot, I don't think she'll mind you telling me, me telling you,

was one of my 50 dates when I did the 12-tiles, Berkeley'ses, and I dated 50 women in 50 days.
