Richard Herring's Leicester Square Theatre Podcast (RHLSTP)

RHLSTP #630 - Spot The Ball - Richard is appalled by an email recommendation and what it says about him, but doesn’t have time to think about it too much as his guest is the brilliant stand-up Susie McCabe. They chat about all the terrible things that have happened to her since her last appearance, which make Richard’s puny cancers seem pathetic, finding the funny in your own father’s funeral, why Susie ended up with Thatcher as her Mastermind specialist subject, generational differences and why our parents were more worried about appearances than our grandparents, bouncing back from a heart attack and making the BBC front page on your death. This one is a really great listen. Don’t skip it!

#451 Ragmags - Richard has had some disturbing text messages from one of his kids, but he’s not going to help them. His guests are super nerd magic geniuses, Jeremy Dyson and Andy Nyman. They discuss why Jeremy chose not to appear on stage with the League of Gentlemen, why Andy is non-plussed to be in Star Wars, how the pair met at a summer camp, the Vagina Monologues production at the Arts Theatre led to TWO new theatre shows that have been performed all over the world, why Andy and Jeremy wanted to retain control of the film version of A Ghost Story, the secretive world of the Magic Circle and how they managed to collaborate on writing the fantastically entertaining novel, “The Warlock Effect”. Plus what would it take for them to fellate Keith Allen.

29th September 2026 - No Speculation - Rich and Ally cover a story that you won’t have read about it in LSM, some suspicious activity around RAF Fairford. Even if you’ve got wind of it then I don’t think any of your news sources will have come at it from this angle. There will be no speculation in this one. Just cold hard facts based on stuff that we’ve heard from strangers on social media. Plus an on the spot report from… ooops nearly told you.

1st October 2026 - County Fair Merkin - Rich and Ally are back with a new co-host to talk about why being bald is masculine and why we have pubic hair. You won’t get this in the lamestream media. Except in the Guardian.

2nd October 2026 - Richard E Grant the Traitor - Last Newsround of the Week and there have been some changes in the line-up. Let us know who you’d like to present ideally. The team talk about something you won’t see in the LSM, the new series of Traitors and the stupidity of one of Rich’s sworn enemies. Will Richard (Herring) ever get his revenge. It’s doubtful. Certainly not right now. Would you rather be on Traitors of Craven Newsround?
