Summary

RHLSTP #21 - Russell Brand - Richard Carpenter Punishment. In a theatre that one suspects is stuffed to the rafters with journalists hoping to steal a scoop, Rich is left wondering, what do you ask the man who has already admitted everything? Obviously you mainly ask him about ham hands. But that can only fill 40 or so minutes, so as well as that they discuss the author of Catweazle, how many hours of childhood they jointly wasted playing one-player Subbuteo, why on earth Russell wanted to appear in a remake of Arthur, how to be good at sex (though you'll have to study the video version to find out), what's beyond the boundaries of comedy, if throwing rat gizzards into an audience is comedic lunacy or genius, Jimmy Savile, wanking off a man in a toilet, plus an attempt to get an exclusive about Katy Perry's wee. The audience show their ignorance of how to make bronze and Richard Carpenter (not that one). The Welsh children question writers continue to demonstrate that their Stephen Fry triumph was a flash in the pan. There's jokes and philosophy from this complex, brilliant, ridiculous, fragile, eloquent, beautiful man. Also Russell Brand is in it (I am funny).

0:00.0	Hello my finest friends, welcome to more Hullestopus or whatever it is you're listening to on this feed.
0:04.8	There's so many different choices powered by ACAST+, which you can join if you wish to get some extras.
0:11.4	The Hullestpertor is selling well in most places. If you're in Tumbridge Wells, take your time.
0:18.5	You're going to be able to get tickets. But some of the places are selling fast, so please head to
0:23.5	richshane.com slash for Hullestpert and see if I'm coming near to you and if I am, buy some tickets.
0:28.4	Even if it's not selling very well, that's probably a better time to buy the tickets for me.
0:33.1	We are announcing guests as we get them. There are a few at their richshane.com slash for Hullestopus.
0:38.5	We're also doing a few Rahulestpert gigs this coming weekend. That's Saturday the 22nd and
0:45.5	Sunday the 23rd of July at the Bill Murray pub. We're doing four separate Rahulestpers, which we'll
0:51.6	get during the Edinburgh fringe. It's me going to the Edinburgh fringe without going to the Edinburgh
0:55.5	fringe. So if you're in North London in the afternoon, come along and see those.
0:59.2	There are only £10 a shot. Anyway, let's sit back relax and enjoy Rahulestpert.
1:08.0	Imagine sweeping through green fields, floating five feet above ground, sun on your face as you
1:15.6	slide by, on track to your destination. Not a car in the world, as you simply lean back.
1:24.4	And before you know it, you're there. This is how travel should feel. And on our trains, it does.
1:32.4	Avanti West Coast. Feel good travel.
1:40.0	This podcast is sponsored by Comedy Unaudible. Look, you know a huge fan of
1:45.2	audible when I'm doing my book club. That's where I get all of my books. I buy the easier to
1:49.7	listen to them than to read them. But did you know that there's also literally tons of the very
1:56.3	best original comedy titles on audible. Audible has an amazing range of new releases and returning
2:03.5	series launching this year. You've got your trusty old favourites like French and Saunders,
2:08.9	titting about, corrupt at them. You've got to love them and my own personal favourite from the
