The legendary Rich Hall is this week’s High Anxiety guest. From Saturday Night Live with Eddie Murphy and Billy Crystal through the Carson show, Letterman and turning down a role on Seinfeld, Rich Hall is the comedian’s comedian. His latest achievements are a string of critically acclaimed BBC4 documentaries about US culture and history.

With nearly 40 years in the business he shares his love of running everyday, avoiding stress, staying current and his eagerness to continue his success.

We talk Johnny Cash, Andrew Dice Clay, Wheeler Walker, Ton Waits and BBC4.

The Envelope of Hate this week is not only brilliant but dripping with clues.

In other news, Leon reveals himself to be the world's only subscriber of Deezer. This episode was recorded before his big move to Tidal which he announced last week.

Listen right to the end of the episode as Chris and Leon fumble through an announcement of sorts that is not only badly delivered but completely unorganised.
