Richard Herring's hit internet podcast RHLSTP goes live in Sheffield - with controversial bits you won't hear online
RHLSTP regularly gets a million downloads a month, has won four Chortle Internet Comedy Awards and is the only non-BBC show to win a Sony Best Comedy Award.
Richard’s interviewees have included Stephen Fry, Michael Palin, Katherine Ryan, Greg Davies, Dawn French, Miriam Margolyes, Stephen Merchant, Russell Howard, Grayson Perry, Sarah Millican and Steve Coogan. You can listen to all the 400+ previous episodes on Acast and iTunes. But it’s much more fun to see it live and hear all the bits that are too libellous and controversial to podcast.
His live show will tour to Sheffield City Hall’s Memorial Hall on March 7 2024.
As one half of the comedy duo Lee & Herring, Richard wrote and performed in shows such as Lionel Nimrod’s Inexplicable World (BBC Radio 4), Fist of Fun (BBC Radio 1/BBC Two) and This Morning with Richard Not Judy (BBC Two). With Al Murray, Richard devised and wrote 37 episodes of the sitcom Time Gentlemen Please (Sky One/Paramount) for Al’s alter ego The Pub Landlord. Richard also wrote and starred in the comedy drama You Can Choose Your Friends (ITV1), wrote and performed two series of Richard Herring’s Objective for BBC Radio 4. The fourth and final series of Richard’s popular comedy drama, Relativity, aired on BBC Radio 4 last year.
Richard was the winner of series 10 of Taskmaster and last year’s Taskmaster Champion of Champions. He’s also won a House of Games Champion of Champions trophy. And it only took him four goes to win Pointless.
