The below is a list of emergency questions. The way a question is formulated below represents how it was posed the first time the question was asked.
The order in which the emergency questions are displayed corresponds to the order they were originally asked during the lifespan of the podcast. For example, “Have you ever tried to suck you own cock?” was the first emergency question ever asked, so it is the first question in the list.
Where a person’s name or a website precedes the emergency question, that is its original source. All other emergency questions should be attributed to Richard Herring.
When clicked on, each question expands to reveal a list of guests to whom the question has been posed. Each name is linked to their episode’s blog post on this site. The guest’s response to the emergency question can be found in the “Emergency Questions” section of the blog post.

If you were in hospital, would you prefer to die than meet Patch Adams?
What do you think is the enduring appeal of dressing up as the 118 running men from those old 118 adverts? That still happens. If you go to a marathon people still dress as those guys, even now. It’s an easy costume, I guess, but is it as funny as anyone who does it thinks it is?
I kind of fantasize about a world where everyone else is gone off in a spaceship; they’ve left me behind on purpose because they don’t like me. I don’t mind that. And the whole of the world is yours, which building would you live in if you had the access? If everyone else had gone and you were living alone, is there a building you would like to live in?
What’s the worst thing that has become entangled in your hair?
Phoebe Herring: Would you rather fall into a pool of lava or, at the last minute, be eaten by a crocodile instead of falling into the pool of lava?

Would you consider to be cheating to sleep with a gender-reverse version of yourself?
What is the worst thing that’s ever happened to you when you’ve been kissing?
I’ve got eight bowls. Should I put the chipped ones at the bottom at the back? There are two rows of four, basically. Or should I – What would you do? Would you put the chipped ones at the back and only use them when you had to or would you put them at the front and use them more because if they get chipped again it won’t matter if they get broken it won’t matter as much? What would you do?
In the lockdown I realized I’ve only put on proper trousers, well, now twice. But the first time I put on, like, and when I say proper trousers I mean jeans. I’ve been wearing swimming trunks, jogging bottoms, cycling shorts – I’m wearing today. Anything but, like, proper trousers. Have you been dressing yourself properly during lockdown? Or have you been like me, and I only put on proper trousers last weekend because we had guests come around, and I didn’t know them quite well enough to be just wearing my grey jogging bottoms?

Today – which is the 28th of October if you’re watching in the future, listening in the future – in 1453, Ladislaus the Posthumous was crowned King of Bohemia. […] If you were king of a mythical kingdom, which I know Bohemia isn’t, but it sounds like it is, what would you like your nickname to be?

Do you think towns should bring back the forum?
Would you rather have a sense of smell that could travel in time (i.e., you could smell any environment from the past or future, but not something specific; you would – your sense of smell would travel in time, but nothing else would) or have a free pineapple delivered to your door every day for the rest of your life (and that will be delivered at 7:00am wherever you are in the world and the people won’t wake you up; it will just be left outside your door), but there will be a fresh pineapple waiting for you wherever you are?
Would you rather be Prince William or Prince Harry?
Would you rather be the most beautiful person in the world or the cleverest person in the world. If you choose cleverness, your current attractiveness would decrease 25%. If you choose beauty you will become 25% less intelligent.
Would you rather have the ability to produce honey from your stomach or be able to make a pearl in your gallbladder/kidney every ten years? You would have a special honey stomach and sick the honey up through your mouth, producing ten kilograms of honey per year, which you could eat or sell to unsuspecting members of the public. Each pearl would be $8000 American dollars, but you would have to pass it with your urine via your urethra to get it out.

Would you rather have world peace or ten thousand pounds in your personal bank account, tax-free?
If you chose world peace, how much money would it take for you to change your answer?
Would you rather be the first person on Mars (and have life support and food but no means of getting home) or have everyone know that you were the person who was the dancing hand on the Eurovision Song Contest?
Have you ever seen someone shit in public?
Would you rather have an extra thumb on each hand, which you can do now with robotics, and it gives you – you put it there and it means you can, like, hold onto something and then still use your other thumb; you can have them on both hands – or be able to shoot poo out of your bum like a cannon. And I should say, you can’t kill anyone with the poo. If it hits them they’ll be covered with poo, or if it’s a hard poo, like, augh! And you can turn it on and off; it’s not like every time you go to the toilet *makes cannon noise.*
Do you remember the last time you got to sit in the seat on a shopping trolley when you were going around the supermarket?
Would you rather be Kate Middleton or Meghan Markle?
Would you rather be able to fart the Blockbusters theme tune or own a cat?
Would you rather be a horse chestnut tree or an apple tree?
Would you rather have to always wash your clothes in a dishwasher or always wash your plates, pans, cups, etc. in a washing machine? You’d have to use the dishwasher capsules in the dishwasher and the laundry tablets in the washing machine. You can still use the dishwasher for dishes if you choose to wash your clothes in the dishwasher and you can wash your clothes in the washing machine if you do your dishes there.
Would you rather have a conversation with a dolphin or an elephant?
Would you rather go on a cruise with Tom Cruise or a walking holiday with Christopher Walken?
Would you rather be happy, grumpy, sleepy, bashful, sneezy, dopey, or some kind of unspecified doctor? All lower-case. I’m not asking which [dwarf you’d like to be]?
Would you rather co-own a car with Jimmy Carr, a lorry with Laurie Anderson, or a van with Van Morrison?
Would you rather eat a full Christmas dinner for every meal, every day, or eat a medium-sized Easter egg every two hours for the rest of your life?
What TV show would you like to see a “Babies” version of (like The Muppet Babies)?
If your current partner was going to leave you for a world-famous comedian, who would you most like it to be?
Would you rather have a time machine that can only take you back to the 1973 wedding of Prince Anne and Mark Phillips or an invisibility cloak that glitches randomly at least once a minute, making you totally visible for a couple of second? You’d only be able to travel to the actual wedding ceremony and not leave Westminster Abbey. You might get lucky and have 45 seconds of total invisibility but might appear at any time. By the way, the invisibility cloak only works if you are otherwise totally naked.
Would you rather be nonchalant, semi-chalant, or 100%, fully chalant?
Would you rather have all your teeth fall out and be replaced by the teeth of a Neanderthal man or woman or have all your hair fall out and be replaced by the wire from a Brillo pad?
If you had to be a piece of fruit, what kind of fruit would you rather be out of all the fruits?
Would you rather be the most famous and successful person of all time, but only after you’ve died, or get 2-for-1 meals at Harvester for the rest of your life?
Would you rather have to live the rest of your life with Emu from Rod Hull and Emu grafted onto your arm, and you have to keep him moving and reacting at all times, even when you’re on your own, or have to have a full bath every day and once it’s over have to drink all the bath water before you’re allowed to do anything else?
Would you rather be imprisoned for a murder that you didn’t commit or for a murder that you did commit?
What sport would you like to see introduced into the Olympics?
Would you rather have real-life VAR (the controversial Video Assistant Referee used in football matches) […] or only be able to earn a living as a look-alike of someone famous? Although you would be allowed to style your hair and wear appropriate clothes, you would not be able to change your face to look like a famous person. You would have to choose a famous person you most resemble and then only be employable as their look-alike. You can’t change your initial decision, even if in later years you start to resemble someone else or if you are much too old to be the person you chose.
Would you rather it turned out we were all just characters in a video game being played by a slightly bored teenager or that the last ten years of your life had just been a dream and you’re about to wake up back where you were a decade ago?
Would you rather be shipwrecked for six months or live in an igloo for the next decade? You’d have to survive on the desert island and capture your own food and make your own shelter, but it would be nice and warm. The igloo would be as near to your current home as possible so you could still go to work, etc., but you wouldn’t be allowed in your current home. You could keep your stuff in the igloo but it’s not a very big igloo.
If there was an exact clone of you made – And it’s not a twin; it’s an actual copy of you. It’s you inside as well. So it’s actually you. Your mind. It’s got your brain as well, and your personality and your soul. And it’s the same age as you, because if you’re going to clone something it would be a baby first and that would make this an inappropriate question. Is it okay to have sex with it?
Have you ever attempted to create a monument that will stand for millennia? How did you get on?
Who did you last wave your bare bum at?
If you had to be given oral sex by a dinosaur, if you had to be, which dinosaur would you like to be mouthed to completion by?

Would you rather find a magical land at the back of your wardrobe or be caught up in a tornado?
What would you rather have named after you: the public toilet in the centre of your town or an embarrassing disease? The toilet would have a big neon sign above it them which would say, “The *Guest Name* Toilet.” The embarrassing disease would be mentioned on the news a lot and be caught by one in four people. Realistically, you would also need to be the first person to have the disease for it to carry your name.
Would you rather know the truth but always have to lie or be really good at ice hockey?
If you had the power to bring one historical figure back to life, out of all the people in history, who would you rather reanimate?
Would you rather have to keep two raw, shelled eggs in your cheeks at all times, one in each cheek, or have a jaw made out of glass? The glass would be the fragile kind used to make thin wine glasses, not the reinforced kind that can stop a bullet.

Would you rather be sent to Coventry or have the scent of Coventry?
Would you rather be a mime or one of those people who pretends to be a statue?

What do you think Ben Shephard really feels about presenting Tipping Point?

What musical instrument that you don’t know how to play do you think you could pick up right now and have a pretty good crack at?
Would you rather die on your feet, live on your knees, or slide down a bank of snow on your bottom?
Would you rather have Angelina Jolie’s lips or Jennifer Aniston’s hair? But the lips would not replace your lips, but be put in the middle of your back. The lips would be autonomous and be able to talk and need feeding and would be furious about being transplanted. The hair would be all the hair that has ever grown out of Jennifer Aniston’s head and body and you wouldn’t be able to trim or shave it off. You would have a lifetime’s worth of [unclear] celebrity hair growing on whatever part of the body it initially grew on, or nearest equivalent.
Would you rather live in a society run by children ages six and under, or have to be tied to the wheel of a water mill and be spun around for the next 13 hours? If you choose the water wheel you will only be underwater for about for about 30 seconds of each revolution but it would be very sunny and you won’t be allowed sun cream or to be released from the water wheel to go to the toilet. The children would carry on running society for at least five years; maybe more if they do a better job than the current lot.
Would you rather run a marathon or stay at home and eat a big bowl of ice cream and the ice cream has no calories and eating it actually makes you fitter than the marathon and they give you a medal at the end for eating the ice cream and it’s nicer than the medal you get for the marathon?
Have you ever walked around a hotel room in your pants, drinking miniatures from the mini bar and pretending you’re a drunk, partially naked giant?
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?
