Richard Herring's Leicester Square Theatre Podcast - with Danny Baker #40

[@blueskiesabove3950]

One of the greatest raconteurs. I could listen to Danny Baker for years. Legend.

[@jamietrev]

I think this is the fourth time I watched this fantastic interview

[@bonnie43uk]

Just re-watched this, .. classic Danny Baker on top form. Brilliant

[@MrGentleNick]

I love these videos, but this is really the best interview with Danny Baker ever. He is my hero. Possibly the nearest person to whom I am in reality, but I am not a comic or a southerner. I am from up north

[@arthurkettle3010]

Best interview in the collection I reckon...very entertaining stuff ...hats off

[@RupertFear]

Time to do another Danny Baker podcast...Excellent!

[@abegarfield7031]

I'm surprised he hasn't got his own podcast. It's like they were created specifically for him.

[@smoothmicra]

Brilliant, I'm a big fan of Baker and Herring, to have both of them on stage hit the spot. Danny Baker is a fine story teller, and what's more he lacks pretentiousness , you always feel like you are having a chat with the bloke next door. Very entertaining. :)

[@abegarfield7031]

Baker & Herring. I'm not sure if that sounds like a law firm or a jewelers.

[@mremppu94]

Probably my favourite RHLSTP-guest, you should have him again.

[@carlskelton5230]

Very entertaining. "Fearless" Fred sounds a right caution.

[@jamespotter3660]

Richard, can you get him on again? I hear he's got more time on his hands now.

[@lukem118]

He's a miserable sod though.

[@grahamlive]

@@lukem118 Fucking hell mate. You could say a lot of things about Danny Baker but I don’t think “miserable sod” is one of them.

[@redstrat1234]

Brilliant interview

[@mikey156]

Still a great listen..... top guy.

[@richardhall263]

Brilliant thank you.

[@MrKaywyn]

The laser disc story is amazing.

[@MrKaywyn]

What a lovely man.

[@seanp8220]

Hi this is me from the future...

[@Michael_Johnson_5446]

Great Metro column today, Rich.

[@nickytanner]

Love Danny

[@musicbybackinnyc1]

yeah his 90s radio football phone ins were the best

[@emmaemma6641]

Danny is everything that used to be right with the world. What an angel 💞

[@-Blackguard-]

Only just seen this. Fantastic. Get him back on Rich.

[@JJBTKD1983]

The plastic garlic bit had me laughing so hard

[@musicbybackinnyc1]

awesome show

[@ianhuckle8101]

Please... please... someone put up a link for the Baker bear on a bike story.... or even better the surreal genius of the " can I reheat the apple strudel " tale...

[@brickscratch]

I should've got a receipt when i watched this last night Chaz ;)

[@Usdi1999]

Love Danny, but this isn't an interview- and with the greatest respect to Richard, who I'm also a huge fan of, Danny is too big to be contained by the interview format. Saw his live show at the New Wimbledon Theatre earlier this year- three whirling, high-kicking hours of jokes and anecdotes all off the cuff. The man's a master of his craft.

[@paulgwor836]

This must have been great for Richard, sit back and let Danny tell some stories. He may overpower a conversation but a great guest none the less.

[@OnChords]

this was an DBLSTP! ;)

[@Occarinaoftime2122]

Get Danny back on! And do 2 hours with him! One-hour on miscellaneous and one-hour slaggin' Martin Roberts off!

[@MarquisSmith]

What a top bloke.

[@ianclarke5404]

Marvellous

[@ohdear671]

I watched him live and it's the same. Really good, and the and the man is a motor rmouth. Herring doesn't have to say a word.

[@LukeMonet]

"Didn't like it? Then you should of put a shrek in it" - new song by Beyonce.

[@timmeekings3492]

Danny Baker must be an interviewers dream? You just need to light the touch-paper and leave the rest to him! Always great value.

[@5irFergie]

No way do I believe Danny was intentionally racist

[@trilobyte3]

The man is a force of nature. Genius.

[@JigjagjugXyz]

And what a great programme it turned out to be. 25:13

[@lukem118]

"The moto of all media is if your not scared, were not doing our job properly"... that is why the likes of Piers Morgan thrives :(

[@sunboy1000]

You know what I like about Danny Baker.. He's just Normal...

[@TheMickyt69]

why has this been uploaded again?

[@hawiiancanetoad]

He wanted you to see that classic, hilarious walk that he did on to the stage at the very beginning of the clip. Had me in hysterics that bit. The man's a comedy genius.

[@danwoodhouse9290]

again? - i havent seen the first one yet

[@ald7157]

Did you enjoy your night off Rich.

[@danwoodhouse9290]

10:53 - wondered how long it would take for the Bakelite to get on to The Bottom Line

[@EddiePedalo]

"I couldn't be a stand-up comic"... halfway through doing an hour of stand-up, albeit sitting down. No disrespect to RH, who is a fantastic act, but Danny could, and did, take the spotlight from most comics, and beat them at their own game.

[@billallen2126]

is this the one where danny baker gets a little miffed at rich? something like: 'you had to make it blue, now my (child) can't hear it.' is what i remember. it's just rhlstp (rhlstp!) deja vu, non?

[@HeatherInFinland]

I think the problem isn't swearing as such, rather subject: DB has never had time for "below the waist" stories on his radio shows.

[@chrischristie1486]

My gawd I’m out of breath just watching him.

[@MrKaywyn]

I forgot how funny weasel and dim bulb is.

[@madderhat5852]

Hey Diogenes, I think we found your honest man.

[@FatNorthernBigot]

He’s quite a chatty soul, isn’t he? 😀👍

[@bonnie43uk]

apparently Danny Bakers garage is chock a block with boxes of Daz washing powder.

[@Lee1978R]

I love Danny Baker, but I am pretty biased being as he's from my neck of the woods.

[@LiquidSpiral]

Watching this video makes me wonder how on Earth Baker didn't have the foresight to not post that stupid tweet.

[@Ernest_Thesiger]

Long-term fans of Danny know perfectly well why he didn't have the foresight not to post that stupid tweet because they know that he avoids news and newspapers at all costs, has zero interest in The Royal Family and that it wouldn't have even crossed his mind to consider that somebody involved in the story may not be white. The reason that tweet was deleted after a matter of minutes was because the last thing Danny would do is make any kind of racist gag, hence him deleting the tweet as soon as he found out that Meghan is mixed-race.

[@royfr8136]

EDGE WAYS OR EDGE WISE?

[@13strange67]

Judith Chalmers had let herself go . . . somewhere !

[@somnambulist1965]

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@garyrigby21]

RH vs DB

[@mrspaghetti7461]

Is Baker on the sniff? Lots of head rubbing, nose rubbing, constant chat.

[@grahamlive]

The constant chat bit is just the way he’s always been.

[@waynethomas4728]

Great stuff - Malcolm Muggaridge badly treated by the BBC bastards. erm sorry, Danny Baker.

[@gazriley624]

i know a bloke just like Danny but he's a Scouser and Funnier

[@sedamaeresera2601]

Who is here after the appalling " racist " tweet?

[@reesemorgan2259]

He said there was no racist intention - but surely nobody is that stupid. He's been in the game long enough. Sorry - he had to go.

[@gazriley624]

what did he say i can't remember

[@michaeldunne3379]

He talks like my wife’s mother, never pausing to take a breath. I usually leave the room.

[@cartoonhead9222]

He must be loaded.

[@JackJarman]

#fired

[@katyyork934]

I bet Richard Herring won't reply xD

[@MatgoStyles]

How much did you bet?

[@katyyork934]

+Matgo Styles 6 pence.

[@katyyork934]

Abe Garfield I forgot all about this comment lmao thanks for reminding me that 13 yr old me was a total loser lol

[@DrOz-007]

Katy, still no reply! How ya doing after all these years?
