“The only way snooker should be played. On your own, in a loft, on a wonky green board, live streamed to a bunch of losers. SPSF forever!”

“TIL about a SPS scene in the 1985 New Zealand cult classic The Quiet Earth. Played on a no-regulation 12 by 6 board by the looks of it so I quickly lost interest.”

“Great to hear that I was not the only one that played and commented like this (though as a child)
Great nostalgic podcast
Thank you Richard.
I look forward to listening to a morning and evening podcast daily (if not a few more) over the coming days.”

“I hate regular snooker but this is something else. Self playing snooker should be an olympic sport!”

“Me1 or Me2? Referee1 or Referee2? Commentator1 or Commentator2?
So many characters. So much fun.
What will the room be called today??
Highlights for me are when one of the cats jumps on the table. Now we have a baby too. It's gonna get good when she starts jumping on the table.
Love it.”Read full review »

“Is this podcast genius or madness, who is to say. What is to say is that it is a podcast where a man plays snooker against himself while commentating on it, as verious verisions of himself, and I love it.”

“I’m a big fan of self-playing snooker, I’m so glad there exists a platform for this excellent sport, especially via an audio medium, the only true way to experience the game. A lot of people on here seem upset that this isn’t a comedy podcast but I don’t know why they would have that impression,...”Read full review »

“This really made my afternoon today. Richard Herring's friendly cheeky humour is just the medicine for a depressing January Wednesday. I think with all Rich's shows and podcasts, this is too long. If it was 15 minutes it would be way better and his live shows should be an hour rather than...”Read full review »

“I've been trying to find a podcast of a man playing snooker with/against himself on a 6 by 3 snooker board in his utility/basement room - and also introduce, commentate, referee, invigilate & interview it all himself. I can't believe this is classed as comedy. I am aware that Mr...”Read full review »

“As a long term listener, I like the self playing banter. The longevity of this podcast proves what a genius Richard is. Talking to himself so often in an entertaining way will never be surpassed. Please keep playing yourself (even after you move house!).”

I had thought RH had done a couple more then given up am simultaneously impressed and worried that this carries on.

“Frame 8 seems to be a turning point, with the commentator admitting that he’s finding the game boring and Me2 threatening to ruin the life of Richard Herring the comedian. Time will only tell whether Me2 will escape the basement or if the referee will find the courage to stand up to him.”

“After listening to the first six frames of this podcast, I have come to the conclusion that if you weren't a snooker-loving, sloping 6x4 snooker-table-owning (complete with Pioneer chalk) child of the 80's, then it just might not be for you. Thankfully, I was that child and I am already...”Read full review »
