Summary
#442 Hungover Mastermind - Richard is basking in the possibly short-lived approval of one of his kids and is trying to make money off the ideas of the other one. His guest is Mock the Week favourite, Rhys James. They discuss the tallest building in Swindon, the worst place in Hertfordshire, writing right wing and left wing material on the same subject, what Richard said about Rhys when he saw him in a new act competition, the enduring problem of the last packet of crisps falling into a volcano, whether it’s better to have one ball or one kidney, wearing a tuxedo on Pointless, why people might think Rhys is deaf and more sad tales of romantic embarrassment.

| 0:00.0 | Hi, Richard Herring here. Thanks for downloading my podcast. Now, you may have heard on the grown-up news that I've not been very well. I'm feeling fine. I'm sort of in the middle of treatment for very minor cancer. It's not curable, but it's completely treatable. So please don't worry about me. In the meantime, if you want to become a badger, this is an excellent time to support us at gofastestripe.com slash badges. If you would like to buy a thank you Moriati t-shirt from Rich and Alley's Craven Newsround, then head to go fasterstripe.com. And you should be able to find them on there. They're only going to be available for a couple of |
| 0:37.6 | weeks and we'll print them all up at once when we find out what the demand is. But if you enjoy |
| 0:42.5 | that podcast, particularly, that's a great way to pay us back for that. Look, I'm still coming to the |
| 0:48.0 | Edinburgh Fringe unless something goes horrifically wrong. In August, from I think the |
| 0:53.8 | sixth to the 16th, go to richardine.com slash for |
| 0:59.1 | Hellasper. You can see all the dates and the guests confirmed so far who are Mike Wozniak, |
| 1:05.8 | Susie McCabe and Flo and Joan. There are some big names to come, I'm sure. I'm aiming very high with this. |
| 1:13.0 | And I will be giving some recommends of people you should be going to see at the fringe through |
| 1:17.2 | interviews over the next few weeks as well. Anyway, thank you very much. Let's sit back. |
| 1:23.2 | Thanks to all the lovely messages I've had from you guys and it's lovely to know how much these |
| 1:26.6 | podcasts mean to you. |
| 1:28.5 | And that's worth more than money. I mean, obviously it doesn't keep us going. But thank you very much for the love you've been giving us and very much appreciate. |
| 1:36.3 | And I'll do my best to carry on doing these until I get bored. Anyway, sit back, relax and enjoy another podcast from the head and mouth of R.K. Herring. |
| 1:46.4 | Hello, my finest of friends. Welcome to another retro Rahalasthapa. This week we are. I'm |
| 1:51.3 | talking in about 2023 to Reese James, who I have interviewed subsequently. If you want to |
| 1:58.2 | listen to the other interview, that is available on the feed. |
| 2:02.5 | This is something we're doing. We put it every month, every week we put out an old |
| 2:06.6 | Rahalasdpah for people who missed it the first time or people who want to listen again. |
| 2:10.1 | It's a good way to introduce new people to the podcast. We always need new people. |
| 2:14.2 | So give them a listen, but you can watch the whole video for free. What a lovely thing that is. |
| 2:21.5 | And if you want to come and see us live, not sure how much longer we're going to do Rahalasdapa. |
| 2:26.3 | I always say this, but we'll see. So if you want to see it live, we're in Edinburgh from the 5th to the 16th of August, |
