Summary

RHLSTP #601 - A Bit on the Nose - Richard is back in Leicester and discussing the fear of a public toilet with the lid closed. His guest is poetic comedian and confused philosopher Rob Auton. Rob reveals a terrible thing that just happened to him back stage. The pair discuss not knowing when something is a joke or not, looking to birthdays in the future, whether all maths is wrong, how lucky we are to be alive, acting with Danny Dyer, how so many comedians are doing beautiful amazing work and the feckless public are unaware of the genius, how Rich should be better at this job by now, a Dragon in the audience, when audience interaction goes beautifully and the power of motivation.
