      Oh hell yes. But... from what I know/remember, he's not a big fan of the UK comedy 'clique'. Which is a shame - he's proved himself to be a sharp, witty, topical humourist, and I sorely miss his US late night TV show!

    Dear Richard.
    I enjoy your podcasts.
    (I did write 'really' but on second thoughts I took it out.
    'I enjoy your podcasts, really...''
    did not sound as complimentary as I had intended.)
    I wish to raise an issue with your titles.
    When you look at the list of videos on your UA-cam channel it displays the titles and a small thumbnail. It is quite frustrating that the first part of the title, whilst necessary is actually so long that I can not see who is in each video. It simply abbreviates your title to read 'Richard Herring's Leicester Square Theatre Podcast with... .'
    Thus, my only way of knowing which video to select from the catalogue is the thumbnail. Sadly, I do not recognise some of the people and often it is your good self depicted. (I take it as read that you will be appearing in every episode.)
    If you could take the time to go over each and every video you have uploaded and change the title to 'RHLSTP with [insert guest here] #[insert relevant episode number here] then it would enhance the time I spend browsing your uploads.
    I understand #100 is to be your last. I hope not. Maybe you could get Stewart Lee on again.
    I am not sure if he has any recent projects to discuss but it is always nice to see how far he has let himself go.
    Fist of Fun really was the most quoted TV show in my 3rd year at secondary school. Kudos.
    Yours.
    Scott.

If she refused then you could rebuff any further criticism of the show's gender imbalance, pointing out that it's a self fulfilling prophecy on her part, and watch the show in future with impunity, and if she accepted she wouldn't have a leg to stand on when disapproving of it.

    FFS Richard, This seeming obsession of yours regarding your fame and that of your peers is ( for want of a better word ) tiresome. You mention it every opportunity you get and sometimes it is very awkward to watch. Sometimes it actually puts a downer on things, causing an awkwardness that's difficult to watch and ultimately takes away from what your doing. I'm sure you don't care what I think and I resisted writing this until it came up on this, the 4th of these I've (sad I know) sat in and watched ( and really enjoyed) tonight. And it came up again. And again. You obviously feel some what robbed by the fact that others in your circle have remained in the more mainstream arena and you , for one reason or another, have not. My point is that I really enjoy your stuff but sometimes the bitterness comes over, sometimes to the point of it being distracting. I just hope that it doesn't consume you're output entirely.
