I was talking to the Sinclair C5 Owners Club the other day. Remember the Sinclair C5? I mean, you’re much too young to remember it. It was alright, actually, and ahead of its time. If you laughed at that, you’re a fool.

Emergency Questions

If you could go into a chrysalis and turn into anything else – you can melt in there if you want – and you still have your memories, what would you turn into on the other side?

A successful pop star. But not like Ed Sheeran, like a good one. *RH asks whether K&G’s act could become commercially and broadly successful.* No. I’ve gone through all the permutations hundreds of times, and the answer’s always no. *RH points out that K&G could rename himself.* It would be a massive climb-down. After being – It’s just watering it down. When you try and water things down so people like it, it just never fucking works, does it?

Have you ever tried to suck your own cock?

I’m very tall. I’ve spent a lot of time in Travelodges. Everyone’s tried, but […] no luck up the length. I had a guy come up to me at the Bird’s Nest in Deptford, a venue in South London, and tell me that the way you do it is you get [unclear] with slats on and then that way, like a Chinese gymnast kind of being forced kind of further down every day, you get your feet down one more slat every week. And that’s how you manage it.

Notes

Recorded at the Phoenix in London.

RH announces that he plans to run two half-marathons this year. People can donate to a Just Giving campaign, which will raise money for Movember.

RH tells a story about having a party as a youth at his friend Brian Bancroft’s family home. RH and friends would draw penises behind the pictures on the walls, to be discovered much later.
