RHLSTP #594 - Taekwondo in Droitwich - Richard has returned to the Bewdley Festival where he has found possibly the longest and most insignificant local news story ever. His guest is veteran comedian Carl Donnelly. They chat about how they spent the morning after the Brexit vote together, their plans for a comedian ambassador calendar, the tingling effects of Original Source shower gel, the surprising consequences of taking ayahuasca, a probable mental breakdown in Edinburgh which means Carl remembers nothing about the show that got him a Comedy Prize nomination, the complex personality of excess and sensitivity that makes Carl such a unique and brilliant stand up, why so little of his material has been filmed, taking his dead dad on stage with him every night and the difficulty of transporting ashes on planes and why it’s tough for comedians to appear on bills with musicians and why actors are better at acting auditions that comedians (it’s because they’re actors).SUPPORT THE SHOW!See details of the RHLSTP LIVE DATES Watch our TWITCH CHANNELBecome a badger and see extra content at our WEBSITE Buy DVDs and books from GO FASTER STRIPE Hosted on Acast.
