RHLSTP Book Club #200 - Moreish - Rich has been reading the memoir of Superhans from Peep Show, though is unable to chat with the man himself, so instead talks to actor and stand-up Matt King. Matt talks about his terrifying year after a stroke in April, some of his other acting work, including a major role in a show that didn’t happen and why he decided to return to the character of Superhans and overcame the hurdles that allowed him to write this book. They chat about how much he become the character as he writes, why he wanted to give the character some depth (as well as explore the hilarious way Superhans brain works), how much of a challenge the audio book was and how the last eighth of the book had to be written post-stroke. Plus the autobiography and more Superhans books to come. A really fascinating and inspiring conversation.

#460 Perfectly Plated Avocado Toast - Richard records his sixth podcast in four days (how is that even possible?) and has a new question about what constitutes cheating. His guest is gazebo building stand-up, Ed Byrne. They discuss why he hasn’t been on the show as often as Sara Pascoe, how many lives he has saved, how Angela Griffin possibly got the edge over Ed and his wife on Mr and Mrs and the humour that can be found in the worst circumstances and why Ed has chosen to write a show about the death of his brother, Paul. Rich also attempts to replace Ed with AI (not so he can cheat with him though) and possibly for the second time questions his Neanderthal heritage.
