AIOTM - Video Series #6

10/2/2017
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 bids a final (surely) farewell to the AIOTM franchise, Emma recounts the tale of a woman who pooed herself in front of a delivery driver and Dan...

AIOTM - Video Series #5

9/25/2017
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 robot is mobile. Plus a special guest direct from Kew Gardens who seems a bit cross for some reason. Best enjoyed whilst wearing clothes from the Red...

AIOTM - Video Series #4

9/19/2017
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 decision to back out of selling him their house has created two very different possible futures (have you seen the film Sliding Doors?). There is some...

AIOTM - Video Series #3

9/11/2017
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 and bamboozled by the specificity of the educational videos that his daughter has to sit through (introducing the big future star of TV, film or...

AIOTM - Video Series #2

9/4/2017
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 embarrassing sexual encounter (though not sure he ever had anything but), goes further into his obsession with making a sex robot, before questioning the...

AIOTM - Video Series #1

8/28/2017
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 part series examining the ethics of sex with robots, and the introduction of Tiny Baby Anus! The video version:...

AIOTM Audio Extra 6

2/14/2017
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 tribute to one that has fallen and a desperate attempt to milk some more mileage out of half decade old material. And what's in Farage's garage this...

AIOTM Audio Extra 5

1/16/2017
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 naughty dog, and who has the best manoeuvre. And for lover's of Dr Seuss and water sports there is a return for Farage in the Garage. If you want...

AIOTM Audio Extra 4: Farage in the Garage. It's the AIOTM (aiotm) team's fourth attempt to give you bonus content and try and tempt you down to come and see a show live - https://leicestersquaretheatre.ticketsolve.com/shows/873548587/events or subscribe to the channel of video extras http://www.gofasterstripe.com/aiotm, but is the tactic working or just putting people off? Dan Tetsell is back after his unexplained absence and the team (even producer Ben) have all been given kickstarter...

AIOTM Audio Extra 3

11/14/2016
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. Whilst acknowledging that the President- Elect is unsatirisable (and yes, Rich is saluting him in the photo - he for one welcomes our new bumpkin-overlord), they decide to give it a bit of a go, before moving on to cat...

AIOTM Audio Extra 2

10/18/2016
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 you follow the Trump ideal of locker room talk, if it's possible to get away with imaginary murder, and looks at some of the most useless logical...

9/12/2016
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 original series. This is NOT what you paid your kickstarter money for. This one (given we were in the theatre anyway) cost us NOTHING. And it sounds like...

The Return

9/6/2016
AIOTM - the Return. As it Occurs To Me is coming back. We're filming six new episodes that will be released next year. 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. But as well as the six super-duper eps (which will be available as video and audio podcasts), we are going to be doing some mini-audio episodes at each record to whet your appetite. So...

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 acclaimed plays and living the life of a millionaire bachelor. But due to popular demand (from himself) he has decided to try to bring the podcast...

Series 3, Episode 6

It's the end my friends. It really is. Really, really. But don't cry, just say goodbye, it could be worse. Rich has stories of CJ from Eggheads and Al Qaeda and is unjustly critical of a charity trying to de-worm orphans in Haiti, Emma has the best poo stories to make you sick, Dan is dressed as Adam Ant and Christian is looking forward to next week's show. Will Pippa Middleton's Disembodied Anus survive? Will King Herod make an appearance? Will Andrew Collins say 'aside' or make an...

Series 3, Episode 5

6/12/2011
It's the penultimate AIOTM (aiotm) ever and Rich smells like a baker. He has had last week's moral maze punishment hanging over his head (see video extra below - but beware once you've seen it you can't un-see it). Emma is back to her scatological best, Dan has been captured by an artist (pictured) and Christian is worried about the effects of nuclear catastrophes. What will Rich do at Lily Allen's wedding? Who is up to star in Attitudeless Badger? What would the 11 year-old Rich think about...

6/5/2011
It's Season 3, Episode 4 of AIOTM (aiotm) and Rich and his forearm are regretting allowing the audience to make decisions about what is moral and what is not. He has been working hard on his punishment and is just hoping there is a 14-17 year-old boy who will be prepared to take the fruits (or seeds) of his labour. Dan, Christian and Emma are all lending a hand and together they have created one of the most horrendous comedy props in the whole of history. This show might actually break some...

6/1/2011
Secret stand-up. As a special once-in-a-series treat, here's this week's exclusive 40 minute set from Richard, which usually you can only get to hear if you come to the show or buy a special CD. Richard chats with the audience, makes inappropriate suggestions to women half his age, reads some of his teenage poetry, does a potential routine for his new show What is Love, Anyway? for the first time ever live on stage, and revives the classic routine 'Give Me Head, til I'm Dead'. But there's...

5/29/2011
It's the 25th episode of AIOTM (aiotm) and the silver jubilee is marked with a new 'umpkin'. If you think it's cumpkins or dumpkins then you have to get with it grandad! And Rich has more than half an eye on the listeners of the future. He has also become disturbed by the Canadian couple who won't reveal the sex of their baby (is it as disturbing as Baby Massage? The babies seem to think so) and has been recognised in Amsterdam airport (but who has he been recognised as?).Emma is...
