  • Rich and Ally's Craven Newsround Compilation "Incurable"
    Jun 27 2026

    Monday 22nd June 2026 - Incurable - Rich is back after a brief hiatus to have some aborted chemo and maybe he’s returned to work too soon. Or maybe it’s the perfect time. The Prime Minister’s resignation is high on the agenda and there are two guest politicians to talk about it. Plus an amazing wartime song to cheer your heart and help you keep up the fight.

    Thursday 25th June 2026 - Too Hot To Newsround - Rich and Ally try to broadcast in this incredible heat, but they are wilting fast. At least they tried.

    Might have been better not to bother on this one.

    Friday 26th June 2026 - Portmanteau -Rich and Ally brave the heat to talk about the King finally coughing up some tax, for getting very little in return. God save him. Plus a visit from a former royal.

  • Olly Smith on Death by Noir - Book Club
    Jun 26 2026

    RHLSTP Book Club #185 - Death by Noir - Rich meets Britain’s favourite wine expert (possibly) Olly Smith to talk about his Wine Crime Book, Death by Noir. They talk about how he isn’t just another celebrity cashing in with murder mystery books, as he was already an award winning writer, how he became a wine expert, whether there are any good non-alcoholic or English wines, why he wanted to write about a wine drinking amateur detective, being mistaken for a popular kids TV character, how the book is a love letter to not just wine and the process of making it, but the town of Lewes and the eccentric people who live there, doing a podcast with P!nk, the bits of England that remain very much themselves, whether anyone can really tell what wine smells of and the exciting possibility of turning the book into a TV show or film and what it’s like finally working with his brother Will Smith (not that one)

  • Lorna Rose Treen - "A 94 Year-Old-Woman Crawling Out of a Pile of Clothes"
    Jun 24 2026

    RHLSTP #615 - A 94 Year-Old-Woman Crawling Out of a Pile of Clothes - Richard is at the Podcast Room again and this time joined by multi-award winning character comedian and writer, Lorna Rose Treen. They chat about subverting expectations on SNL UK, how the exquisite Time of the Week came out of Lorna working on Women’s Hour, winning the Edinburgh’s Joke of the Fringe with a joke that wasn’t even the best joke in the same minute of her show, being responsible for the death of comedy (according to the Sun), why it’s good for comedy to be silly and it’s important that female performers are allowed to be flawed and ridiculous and why a man with a bad sink joke ruined Rich’s career.

Gives a great insight into the world of comedy, as well as many other facets of life. Takes a bit of time to get into his style of interviewing, but once you're hooked you're hooked. Highly recommended

Great interviewer, very funny and insightful
