#385 Do Not Listen On 2x Speed - Richard is disappointed about his daughter’s Easter egg, because it’s still Easter where we are, in the past and has an ultimatum for Ian Cadbury. His guest returns after just 9 years away. It’s the extremely fast-talking whirlwind of a man, Dara Ó Briain.
Chat includes the Irish James Bond, how Stephen Hawking ruined Terminator, the likelihood of Richard speaking fluent Spanish for the rest of his life and the impact of that on the theories of Infinite Universes, sending robots into space (and what happens the night before they go), depriving a comedian of an audience for two years, why Richard will never present Going for Gold and what he’d insist upon if he was at the helm of Blockbusters and to be honest such a depth and pace of comedy that you are going to need to listen on half speed to catch it all.
Catch Dara doing what he does best on his latest stand up tour - https://daraobriain.com/#tour-dates

| 0:00.0 | Hello, Ratfans. I'm back in the UKKK after my lovely holiday and I'm recharged and ready to go. I want to do everything. I love Rahalasdapa now. I'm even going to do Twitter fun and snooker again probably. So stone clearing, who knows? |
| 0:16.4 | Anyway, look, the exciting news for Rahalistaba.dhba fans is I have some live gigs planned. |
| 0:22.6 | We've got so many in the can, luckily, that I don't have to do loads of live stuff. |
| 0:26.9 | There's some great stuff we did in Edinburgh and before coming out up until Christmas, basically. |
| 0:33.8 | But there are some opportunities to see it live. |
| 0:36.5 | I'm in Beaudley on the 16th of October. |
| 0:38.4 | Might be sold out, but check with the theatre if there's a waiting list. |
| 0:41.8 | I am back at the Leicester Square Theatre, but for two nights only, |
| 0:45.5 | it'll be four guests somehow, even though I only do one guest a week. |
| 0:49.2 | I'm going to make sure they're all top-drawer big stars, |
| 0:53.1 | because there's only four people. |
| 0:54.9 | It's Monday the 3rd and Tuesday the 18th of November. |
| 0:58.8 | With the less square theatre, the first 75 tickets or something are cheapest |
| 1:03.1 | and then it goes up a bit and then the last 200 are the most expensive. |
| 1:06.6 | So I would say book now because I am aiming for those big names that you love, |
| 1:10.7 | some of whom haven't been on for a little while. |
| 1:12.8 | So I'm hoping we can get some of the absolute favourite big star names |
| 1:17.4 | that you always clamour to come and see. |
| 1:21.5 | So why not book now and hope that I'm right about that and save yourself some money? |
| 1:26.7 | The more people who come to these shows, the more we'll do. |
| 1:29.4 | The London gigs have been a bit poorly attended, but it was picking up a bit again. |
| 1:34.0 | So if you want to keep us going on to see us live, then come and see us Less Square Theatre. |
