This is an audio version of Richard Herring's Warming Up blog, available to read at www.richardherring.com/warmingup, but there might be a few little extra surprises thrown in as well and exclusive audio blogs. Warming Up is thought to be the second longest running consecutive daily blog in the world, having been started in November 2002. Richard Herring is a comedian and writer and podcaster who you can also hear in the Collings and Herrin podcast and AIOTM

This is a story about life. This is a story about light. This is a story of how some men are the product of their lives, and some are the prisoners of the choices they have made. This is a story about sin. Joseph Leighton is on the cusp of adulthood, his university days stretching before him with the luxury of rose-tinted foresight. David Leighton is Joseph's father, a grumpy, vicious sour man. Or is he a snake-hipped guitar god, with a shot at the big time? John Leighton is Joseph's grandfa ...

AIOTM Video Series #6 - Repo Mann. It's the final episode of the series and there's a hostage situation to resolve. I expect they will manage that. And, if they do, then you can will get to see the first kniforkoon off the production line, the true story of the Song of Sixpence and how Richard's obsession with toaster robots resolves. Christian bid…

AIOTM Video Series #5: Orange Beads. Rich has been dreaming about a movie star and also got a bit cross with Hitler. You won't believe what he's done now! Also he takes a look at an old Nespresso advert and wonders why we have frozen peas. Plus poo stories, Christian takes on Trump (is he still going?), Tiny Baby Anus and Gemma the toaster sex robo…

AIOTM Video Series #4: Barbara. Has becoming a dad meant that Richard has lost his comedy mojo? Only you can decide (but the answer seems to be yes). Having finally got rid of the dead wood of Emma Kennedy and getting back the dead wood of Dan Tetsell, Rich turns his attention to how constitutional revenge porn is and meets the couple whose decisio…

AIOTM Video Series #3: Kniforkoon. We're a cast member down and the new young blood on the team seems to be plotting a permanent takeover. It reminds me of something, but surely there can't be a Shakespeare parody in the middle of all this rubbish about poo and robot sex? Richard is furious about a slight he has received from a young house guest an…

AIOTM Video Series #2 - Average. In the second episode of this groundbreaking series, Richard wonders about the consequences of sending soiled toilet mats to strangers, discusses his (as yet still unbroadcast) third appearance on Pointless Celebrities, introduces a new cool cast member, tries to flog a new Christian Reilly album, recalls an embarra…

AIOTM Video Series #1: Warsaw Indiana. It's taken some time, but here it is! The kickstarted video episode (also available as this audio) of AIOTM. Rich assembles the old team and they reveal where the money has gone. Plus there's news of Richard's holiday in pre-Trump America, a President who is less interesting than his hat, the start of a six pa…

AIOTM Audio Extra 6: The Tigers Come at Night. It's been on helluva slog, but we're nearly there. And on the final audio extra before the completely different video series begins (hopefully by May 2017), Richard is concerned about tweets from Jeremy Corbyn, who is more popular Morgan or Rowling and why we have a Doomsday clock. There's a moving tri…

AIOTM Audio Extra 5: Hootenanny Lies. It's the penultimate AIOTM of the series, but the videos won't be out for a couple of months at least, so enjoy this bonus topical podcast which predictably is mainly concerned with a piss-covered President elect, but there's also time to cover Last Of The Summer Wine, washing baked bean tins, the return of the…

AIOTM Audio Extra 3: Dan has been mysteriously replaced by Matthew Crosby and everyone is trying to process the week's incredible and terrifying news, and Rich wonders if he can get back to the alternate Universe where Trump got dumped and see how things turned out there.

AIOTM Audio Extra 2: Richard's usual plan to write AIOTM at the last minute very nearly comes unstuck, when he is betrayed by the thing that he loves. But somehow he pulls it out the pan (in both senses) and constructs a topical bonus podcast (that is not the same show that you Kickstarted - that will be out in 2017) looking into what happens if yo…

AIOTM Audio Extra 1: Ram-Packed. After 5 years apart, the AIOTM team are reunited and it's like they've never been away. As well as recording the kickstarted video episode of the show (which will be released in 2017) the whacky funsters put together this bonus, topical audio podcast, created under the ridiculous last minute structure of the origina…

You can buy tickets to see the studio parts of the show being recorded here https://leicestersquaretheatre.ticketsolve.com/shows/873548587/events - The first one is on September 11th. Aptly.

AIOTM: The New Class??? It's been five years since the AIOTM caravan closed its doors, all the cumpkins and dumpkins and minted cumpkins are mouldering in a corner, Emma and Dan have not had any work since and Christian turns up at the Leicester Square Theatre every Monday night, just hoping. Richard in the meantime has been off writing critically …
