About this episode
RHLSTP #579 - Record Breaking Glockenspiel - Richard has come to Chesham in Buckinghamshire for a special live RHLSTP and is bedazzled by news about the local fire brigade. His guest is the fabulous stand-up Esther Manito. They talk about lockdown parenting, the craziness of taking up stand-up so shortly after the birth of her second baby, how Esther owes her existence to a blasphemous joke, why masturbating on a tube train in rush hour is (in one way) impressive, the risks of having Basil Brush on as a guest, a lovely rendition of the largely forgotten theme tune to Get It Together, some old ghost stories from Rich that you’ve doubtless heard already and why Esther’s new tour show is called Slagbomb! And why she didn’t take it to the Edinburgh Fringe.
