  • RHLSTP 604 - Bilal Zafar
    Mar 25 2026

    RHLSTP #604 - Elephant Trunk - It’s another studio RHLSTP with Richard’s occasional collaborator Bilal Zafar. They talk about the amazing viral Instagram clip of one of their sketches, why Bilal wanted Ally Sloper to play his dad, whether we should be surprised by life, but not death, meeting Labour politicians on the tube, how can Bilal get on the telly, his return to Edinburgh and Rich’s plan to never leave his venue, some new emergency questions and a nice chill vibe as the boys use up their full hour as best they can.

  • Retro RHLSTP 138 - Eshaan Akbar
    Mar 23 2026

    #435 Glisten With Mother - Richard has had to deal with a persistent heckler (aka his son) and surprised himself with the cliche that he responded with. His guest is banker turned comedian Eshaan Akbar. They discuss not knowing how to wear trousers or shake hands, his inappropriately named dance group, challenging your childhood religion through comedy and why that was potentially more perilous for Eshaan, than Richard, whether it was right that Eshaan ended up doing the brown voices on Spitting Image, not wanting to be the spokesperson for any community or being forced to challenge inequality, when you believe yourself to be everyone’s equal. The show included an erudite and interesting alternate point of view from an Asian member of the audience, which sadly was not picked up by the microphones, but which we hopefully discussed fairly nonetheless. Plus the story of a twisted testicle with a happy ending


    PS Eshaan and Richard successfully shook hands as they left the stage.

  • RAACN week 8
    Mar 21 2026

    Monday 16th March 2026 Dead as a Dodo - Rich and Ally are back for another week in the newsround studio, despite really having too much to do. They are discussing plans to resurrect the dodo. I don’t have time to write the blurb as I have to take my daughter to the train station.


    Tuesday 17th March 2026 - Banksy Uncovered - Rich and Ally are here with all the big news stories and today reveal the true identity of controversial artist Banksy (can you guess what Cocky Carrot calls him?). Journalism at its finest.


    Wednesday 18th March 2026 Receding Bums - Rich and Ally are back to talk about how many times a day you should be brushing your teeth and what might happen to you if you fail to hit that number. It’s more of an intervention than a news programme. Still ignored by the lamestream media.


    Thursday 19th March 2026 - Bigfeet - Rich and Ally are back to give you all the news the lame stream media doesn’t want you to see. Today they’re looking at whether the very convincing 1967 footage of a Big Foot walking through a forest is a real Big Foot or just a man dressed up as a Big Foot. With special report from a forest somewhere.

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
