Summary

#434 - Big Nick - Richard is back at the Leicester Comedy Festival for the second week in a row, concerned about the historical figures that they venerate here. His guest is Michael Sheen stand-in, Nish Kumar. They discuss the physical and mental health scares they’ve had since last they met and the secret that Richard was harbouring back then, plus whether therapy helps of hinders comedy, cowardly potholers, horny followers of the alien Jesus, getting to sit in Richard Osman’s chair, how little control we have over our lives and an hilariously angry and potentially lethal encounter with Boris Johnson.


Thanks to the Leicester Comedy Festival for having us.
