Rich and Ally's Craven Newsround Compilation "Milked in a Basement"
Tuesday 9th June 2026 - Milked in a Basement - Rich has been too busy or tired to do Newsround for a few days and to be honest probably should have given it a miss today. But news doesn’t wait for someone to be in the mood to tell you what the news is and luckily one person on this show can enunciate. The boys are talking about creating sperm in a lab and what that might mean for humanity. It’s an all time classic. Thank you Moriarty.Wednesday 10th June 2026- Scooby DUMB - Rich is a bit less tired than yesterday, but still quite tired and he can’t believe that he is having his childhood destroyed. Just leave things the way they are. When they were good. When I was young. Plus big news about Prince Harry.Thursday 11th June 2026 - Blue Anchor - Rich and Ally are a bit put out to find out they are not the most popular thing in the show, but they plough on regardless, looking into the case of the mysterious cider drinking mannequin in Minehead. What really happened? The lamestream media won’t tell you, but we will.Friday 12th June 2026 - Sodomised Gargoyles - It’s the last Newsround of the week and a weary Richard Herring talks us through not one, not two, but three big news stories, travelling the world from Russia/Ukraine to Spain and then right out into outer space and unknowable time. You don’t get that on the grown-up news. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

RHLSTP #613 - Predicting the Future with Urine - Richard is at the Podcast Room with the one-of-a-kind diamond that is Ronni Ancona. They chat about the disappointments of the Blue Peter studio, performing together at the Edinburgh Fringe 1992, how Ronni`s unlikely professional partnership with Alistair McGowan bore fruit, even after their romantic relationship had ended, having a part especially written for her on Eastenders, working with the amazing John Sessions, failing to impress her kids with her social media successes and producing movies with Sally Phillips.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 STRIPEAudio mix by Ben Evans (NTO)Thanks to Chris Evans (NTO) and Ben WalkerRecorded at the Podcast Room Hosted on Acast.

His guest is historian, comedian and puppeteer, Al Murray. They talk about the evolution of the new Spitting Image live show and, hosting a chat show with proper famous guests, the toll of touring in your 50s and Al’s first proper serious history book Command, including the impact that VD had on the British fighting forces. Plus why being a conformist in real life allows non-conformity on stageBuy Al’s book here https://www.amazon.co.uk/Command-Allies-Learned-Second-World/dp/B09V6HP2YR/Come and see us live http://richardherring.com/rhlstpSUPPORT 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.

Rich and Ally's Craven Newsround Compilation
Monday 1st June 2026 - Cloaca Room - Rich and Ally are back for another month and today they are reporting on a story that you won’t find in the lame stream media (unless you read the Guardian), the onanistic habits of birds. There is a lot of prejudice against wanking birds and we hope to do our bit to stop that. So do spread the important message of today’s report. It’s OK for birds to get off on themselves.Tuesday June 2nd 2026 - Question Time - Rich and Ally cover another story that the elitist BBC wouldn’t cover, what are the unanswered questions in the Mandleson Files? And how many are there? There are more questions than answers, but not if you include wrong answers.Thursday June 4th 2026 - Yvonne Boolabong - Ally tries his hand at some ventriloquism in this last episode of the week, due to a rare performance commitment, but eventually there is some bloody news and it’s all about the return of an unpopular, unfunny 1990s comedy figure. Surely Richard isn’t so self-obsessed to make all this about him? Come and see him live (while you still can) http://richardherring.com/gigs Hosted on Acast.

And whether Rich is prepared to take over from Greg Davies.Buy the book here - https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/the-last-pebble-a-heartwarming-middle-grade-fiction-story-about-a-boy-his-grandad-and-a-mystery-for-boys-and-girls-age-9-10-11-12-by-comedian/2276ea2fa88fe3a6SUPPORT 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.
