Summary

RHLSTP Book Club #152 - A Poo On A Pogo Stick - Richard is joined by a new co-host who threatens to replace him as he talks to comedian, cartoonist and jokesmith Olaf Falafel about his very enjoyable joke book, A Poo On A Pogo Stick. They discuss how the book came together, where the jokes came from, the decision to make some of them very slow burners for younger readers, how telling and making up jokes can bond a family and the cohost chooses some of his favourites as well as trying out a rude one of his own. It’s anarchic and unpredictable, just like the book, which is tremendous fun.

0:00.0	Hi, rap fans. Welcome to another podcast. Thank you for listening. Look, we've got some live dates coming up.
0:06.7	The Butaly in the West Midlands is sold out in October. Third of November, I'm at the S-square Theatre.
0:13.3	What are my guests is Richard Aowadi. There are still some tickets left, but not very many, so get there very fast.
0:18.8	We also have the other guest book for that. We can't name him yet, but he's a very big American stand-up comedian actor
0:26.6	who I think you'll want to see.
0:28.6	Should be loads and loads of fun.
0:30.6	So quickly buy tickets for that one.
0:32.6	Then on November the 18th, I think we're back.
0:34.6	Haven't got the guests for that one yet.
0:36.6	But worth booking ahead because I am aiming very high with my guest bookings for all of these gigs, but especially
0:43.2	the London ones, there aren't very many London ones. So do keep listening. Thank you very much for all
0:47.8	your support. And now let's sit back relax and enjoy another wonderful podcast. This podcast is sponsored by Speck Savers.
0:56.7	I'm going to leave you, said my wife the other day.
0:59.9	Fair enough, I replied, I can't really blame you.
1:02.2	I can't believe it lasted this long.
1:04.0	She seemed confused.
1:05.1	She said, I'm going to leave you some of this pizza.
1:07.2	I know, I lied.
1:08.7	I can't believe the pizza has lasted this long.
1:12.5	Totally fooled her. And she still hasn't realised that she's way too good for me. Plus, I got some pizza. Result. Look, she's got a very
1:18.4	quiet voice and was facing the other way, and I'm getting older, and I've noticed a change in my
1:24.0	hearing, and maybe I need to get it checked. And you might be surprised to hear that
