"If you're brown or LGBT, there is a certain level of death threat you have to let go, otherwise you wouldn't get anything done. You'd be a comedian/death threat administrator". This is both hillarious and utterly depressing.
Tom did one of the Edinburgh ones, but be great to get him back. Tim was booked in for April last year, but then everything got cancelled for some reason. Noel says he's up for it, but he's a busy man and difficult to pin down
Well your dressing gown triggered me to think about "Only when I Laugh" A show about old men whining about being in hospital, that my Dad watched. Why was that guy with appendicitis in there for so long? Oh shit, now I'm down a awful rabbit hole. THANKS VERY MUCH RICHARD
I'm still gutted you won Taskmaster Richard. I liked that you had so many fun stories about coming 2nd on shows all the time! That said, if there is a Champion of Champions Taskmaster again, I hope you beat Ed Gamble, he's way too competitive. I like him and all, but I like the idea of him not winning too!
That dressing gown reminds me of James Bonds one in Spectre. Although it looks like he did actually die at the start of Skyfall and the bloated corpse has washed up on shore. (love you x). I'm gonna regret commenting at the start again...
There was a large community of maroons (runaway slaves) in the Great Dismal Swamp. So, in the Muppets Twelve Years A Slave, maybe Kermit could be the descendant of puppet frog slaves in the present, telling his nephew Robin about their family's history, and then he could also play a slave in the past.
Absolutely agree about the Muppets Christmas Carol needing that song. I have the VHS with it in and the DVD without it.... It makes no sense without it. But the song itself is a snoozefest for sure
New Rule: Anytime you consider sending someone you disagree with, a death threat, you have lost the argument and should go take a really long hard look at yourself and your pathetic life...
Still waiting on Wendy Craig. She can’t have anything better to do all day surely. Also Doreen Tipton ( Gill Jordan) please. Meanwhile Nish still killing it, cheers 😀
I don’t own a dressing gown but I did have one of those round self hair cutting things developed for men. I used it once and decided, as a joke, to give myself a monk hairstyle, show the wife and finish it off. Sadly, I did the circle on the top of my head, placed the thing on the edge of the bath and it slipped off and fell in the water.
next episode, cutting your own hair, on camera, ideally: mid-interview more ideally: without warning, mid-conversation even more ideally: without either party even mentioning it going on. (and wear a hat in the intro to hide the horrific (or lovely) truth of the result).
Think most people have varying views subject dependent. For me it's based on logic - (not incld racism here as this is a no no) but any opinion I hold would non the less be labelled either right or left wing (so mixed) - therefore not everyone has blanket views or adhere to any political opinion wholesale.
52:41 - "The Bugle's fanbase is not unlike your fanbase Richard...you can't dangle the carrot of Wikipedia edit in front of these f***king a**holes." Yes Madame Lily, it's known as having a quirky and original sense of humor. You really ought to try it one day....
Nish if you plumbed Duchamp's urinal in and used it, it would cease to be a work of art. The readymade's presentation in an upside-down position is essential to it's repurposing as an objet d'art. Turning it the right way up and connecting it to your sewer outlet would be a gross insult to one of 20th century art's great geniuses. If you proceeded to waz in it, it could hardly make it any worse.
Why do you feel like a victim of political opression when the BBC board is conservative, their political correspondent copy and pastes Tory party press releases as articles, and they paint the chanceller of the Exchequer as superman? Not to mention 11 years of conservative party rule. And the most read news papers and new web sites being conservative.
I think there are those neutrals out there. No one is truly neutral but I think in terms of an audience there are plenty of people who don't want politics in their comedy. I like to think the friends I have are broadly speaking a reasonably intelligent crowd and politics will occasionally creep into the conversation but it usually causes a degree of ire and everyone ends up happier when the chat goes back to football and nonsense. Overtly political comedians are pretty niche and there are plenty of acts that steer clear of political references of any sort. I'm sure the Spectator has a narrative it wants to weave but I don't think they are wildly off the mark about there being a large audience keen for bland neutrality in their choice of comedy.
Sure, it was more that the neutrals in that article were saying something that was extremely partisan. Luckily for people who don't want politics in their comedy 95%+ of comedians don't go that way. Nice for those that do that there are some ace political comedians.
"If you're brown or LGBT, there is a certain level of death threat you have to let go, otherwise you wouldn't get anything done. You'd be a comedian/death threat administrator". This is both hillarious and utterly depressing.
This is also my takeaway from this episode. Thought I was coming here for a low brow laugh, but I got hit with this instead. What a line.
6:56 the sound of Nish in the background. So good
Made me laugh too
Your hair is beautiful Rich
Yep I'm super jealous
You're a stunner Rich. Eff the haters.
I’d love to see Richard interview Tom Rosenthal, Tim Key, Noel Fielding
Tom did one of the Edinburgh ones, but be great to get him back. Tim was booked in for April last year, but then everything got cancelled for some reason. Noel says he's up for it, but he's a busy man and difficult to pin down
All at the same time?
Would love to see him interview Liam Williams and ask if he played Iqbal Achieve in Toast of London.
@Bob Cochran He’s done Mark Watson and Will Smith
The human centipede analogy is the perfect description of the British media.
Well your dressing gown triggered me to think about "Only when I Laugh"
A show about old men whining about being in hospital, that my Dad watched. Why was that guy with appendicitis in there for so long? Oh shit, now I'm down a awful rabbit hole. THANKS VERY MUCH RICHARD
Love Nish, would love to see Rich interview Sean Lock and Sam Simmons!
BENTOBOT yes please!!
It would have been nice if he got to interview Sean before he passed. I bet it would have been a hoot.
Really good to see you getting back into the theatre for it and evolving the fornat as usual. Chuffed for you Rich!
That Joss Whedon chat hasn’t aged particularly well hahaha
"The last good thing that happened to me was that Joss Whedon showed up unexpectedly." Ouch...
I mean, Joss Whedon's always been a prick.
@@StarkRG Yep, I've always had major fucking alarms with Nish and this makes them go off all the louder.
How so?
@@92RedRevolver What?! Really? What for, could you elaborate?
I could listen to Nish's laugh all day. I would have been pleased to have won that prize on Taskmaster.
It fills me with joy and warm feelings.
6:50 the far away laugh from Nish in the distance XD
March 19 is my birthday! What a lovely birthday gift from someone I adore, but not in a creepy way.
You've got fantastic hair Richard and I love Nishi!
Just what I need this morning
I'm still gutted you won Taskmaster Richard. I liked that you had so many fun stories about coming 2nd on shows all the time! That said, if there is a Champion of Champions Taskmaster again, I hope you beat Ed Gamble, he's way too competitive. I like him and all, but I like the idea of him not winning too!
Have I got news for you friend!
Bill Oddie's let himself go
The mouse grooving to Good King Wenceslaus...
The Princess Bride folks. Best. Movie. Ever.

Yep, I regret it, cos Nish laughing at 6:53 is gold.

Love Nish's laugh.
His laugh is pure joy.
Which is probably why so many ppl seem allergic to it ;) :p
it legit gives me life, tho 😌😌😌💜💜💜
My favourite Nish! Thanks Richard, happy times watching you twoo!! :D

No need for the comma before "a death threat". After it, yes, but not before.
@@pralinehorse4691 ok
Long Live RHLSTP ☠☠☠
Ah good one Nish. Wish it was longer
Dana Carvey is 65 years old.
Way!
Hey Rich did you know that it's the 25th anniversary of Adam Sandler golfing a subway sandwich into a guy's mouth?
Still waiting on Wendy Craig. She can’t have anything better to do all day surely. Also Doreen Tipton ( Gill Jordan) please.
Meanwhile Nish still killing it, cheers 😀
I don't own a ddressing gown but do own some hair clippers.
Heard the pod version - very very funny.
Thank you

Richard's hair is bohemian, and shouldn't be touched.
Oh Rich - you could've just said you were dressed as Arthur Dent!
Many Athletes manage to be competitive and friends after the event....competition is not always nasty.
I’ve got the same dressing gown as RH. Or should I say RH and I have the same dressing gown. Actually we have one each; just to clarify that.
Hey Rich, the hyperlink to your twitch channel has an unnecessary "%E2%80%8B", which leads to a dead page
Futurama reference! Nice
ohhhh 'ark at 'im at the start!
Nish, you'll have to fight me for Fountain.
I know you're in your dressing gown but people pay huge money to get hairstyles like that.
next episode, cutting your own hair, on camera,
ideally: mid-interview
more ideally: without warning, mid-conversation
even more ideally: without either party even mentioning it going on.
(and wear a hat in the intro to hide the horrific (or lovely) truth of the result).
Great chemistry
I think it's "Rye-sh-cob"
Two comedy national treasures. Thanks for the brilliance. Can't wait for Lew.
All I know is my gut says maybe.
Think most people have varying views subject dependent. For me it's based on logic - (not incld racism here as this is a no no) but any opinion I hold would non the less be labelled either right or left wing (so mixed) - therefore not everyone has blanket views or adhere to any political opinion wholesale.

Serious response, I could see Nish running for office one day and winning
The bit about joss whedon hasn’t aged well xD
I nearly pissed myself when you mimicked Nish's charity show heckler "that was ages ago!" Hope that doesn't make me a racist.
I watched the clip and he did lose it at that gig. He deserved that bread roll ngl.
good vibes
Any chance you could not shout at the beginning? It’s really unnerving, particularly when listening before I go to sleep...

I like Nish but he and other comics need to stop saying Brits don't like spicy food!
No one on the talk radio I listen to are talking about your incident Nish.
NK clearly doesn't know his history - political opinion on people dying...very niaive if you think there is no truth in this.
16k views after 3 weeks for this BBC celebrity. It's almost like he was only ever promoted to push a political agenda.
Why do you feel like a victim of political opression when the BBC board is conservative, their political correspondent copy and pastes Tory party press releases as articles, and they paint the chanceller of the Exchequer as superman?

If only someone had tried that at the Nuremburg rally: "And now it's time for the raffle!"
