 Frame 105 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 44:00

Frame 105 - Vice Versa. It's been an amazing run of frames since the cameras have been allowed in to capture the action, but one of the players seems to not be himself and the other one seems to be the self that the other one is not. What has happened? It's like someone is having a breakdown. But which one? Or Ones? Some great play and another thrilling climax (and that was just Me1 on his weekend with no kids). Coming soon the Self-Playing Snooker kickstarter. But in the meantime, help out the stone clearers. I know they are your enemies, but they need your support. And without them what would you be? http://rhlstp.co.uk/kickstarter

 Frame 104 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 33:00

Frame 104 - Rode To Nowhere. It's the second frame of this contest to be filmed and it's another scintillating frame of self-playing snooker. Definitely the best televised frame you will see this week and definitely definitely the best one that you will just listen to. There are some fireworks off the green board too and some bad language and sportsmanship, but it's a beautiful ballet of balls on the board and I hope that will make up for it.

 Frame 103 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 33:00

Frame 103 - Sinking Balls, Sinking Economy. It's back! For the first time since lockdown the best sporting audio podcast in the world has returned and it's Me 1 vs Me 2, no frills, but many thrills. Me1 is riding high from elite tournament success, but can Me2 burst his bubble? Or at least shag his wife? If you haven't been watching the months of Twitch streaming you may be surprised by the leap in skill level, beautifully described in audio by Commentator 1. You can watch it, if you care to, in the video section at http://twitch.tv/rkherring or come and see lots of live stuff most weekday nights. And if you are with Amazon Prime you can pay us actual money at no cost to yourself - This video explains how. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WL9jahbh0oA

 Frame 102 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 29:00

Frame 102 - Streaker. It's the only sporting fixture available in the world today, but Me 1 and Me 2 are back with an action packed frame which has everything: good snooker, bad snooker, multiple pitch invasions, full frontal nudity, a box in the way, a confused babysitter and some cuddles. It's a shame and a relief in many ways that we weren't filming this one, but we might start filming some soon. Follow me at Twitch http://twitch.tv/rkherring and if you're an Amazon Prime customer you can link your twitch account and give me $4.95 a month for free by using your one free subscription.

Any gambling companies want to sponsor the event or take bets on it - get in touch. It might just save your business. Thanks to Nathan Jay for the swanky new theme tune.

 Frame 101 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 22:00

Frame 101 - A Quiet Place. Rich is meant to be working, but takes a break (get it) to play his final frame of snooker of the decade. But what if his wife finds out what he's doing? He has to be super quiet, a bit like in that film. Will this be the end of Me1's marriage? And is that what Me2 wants? And who will win? And does anything matter any more? The suspense will kill you and Me1's wife may kill him, which will make future episodes less exciting. Happy New Year Listener.

 Frame 100 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 22:00

Frame 100 - It's finally here. We're made a century break and it's time to find out who will be in the lead at this crucial though completely arbitrary point of the contest. Will it be Me1 or Me2 or will a different Me come in and win it? There's only one way to find out. The Mes have failed to make a profit at snooker this year and the recent live event actually made a loss. But if you want to help and indeed to see that tournament when it is edited together then become a monthly badger at http://gofasterstripe.com/badges In the meanwhilst sit back and listen to this frame with some of the most impressive snooker in the whole 100 frames. Will it be the first frame ever where there isn't a foul shot? Only one way to find out.

 Frame 99 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 23:00

Frame 99 - Commentator Two Is Impressed. We're approaching the 100th frame of this long running contest and both players seem keen to win this not very important frame. And there is some scintillating play and records tumble like frozen fractals all around. The headphones started running out of juice about halfway through so I hope the sound is OK. I couldn't be arsed to check. See Me1 VS Me2 snooker LIVE at the Cockpit Theatre on 4th December. Amazingly some tickets left: tickets here

 Frame 98 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 23:00

Frame 98 - Recycled Art Exhibit. It's 17th November 2019 and the news is full of the antics (or not) and the sweat (or not) of the Grand Old Duke of York, but I doubt that that will get a mention in a serious sporting contest like this. But the snooker board has to be cleared of rubbish before the play can commence, which is apt as this is almost certainly the most rubbish snooker that has been witnessed in almost 100 frames. Who will be ahead at Frame 100 and does it matter? Does a foul on the final black ball end the game? All questions that must be answered in the next 26 minutes. See Me1 vs Me2 Snooker LIVE at the Cockpit Theatre on 4th December. Tickets here

 Frame 97 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 22:00

Frame 97 - Wasp Mortuary. It's been too long, but Me1 and Me2 are back on the old green board for a quick frame, even if they floor is littered with the bodies of insects. There's early controversy as one player gets away with knocking and replacing a ball, but then it's pure high-adrenaline snooker where only one player can win unless it's a draw. Who will emerge victorious as Frame 100 looms. Don't miss the chance to see Me1 Vs Me2 Snooker live on December 4th at the Cockpit Theatre in London. Tickets here - https://www.thecockpit.org.uk/show/richard_herring_me_1_vs_me_2_snooker Be quick because who knows if they will sell out?

 Frame 96 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 24:00

Frame 96: Dizzy The Mes are all ill having been dizzy and in bed all day, so perhaps it was an unwise decision to rise from the sick bed to play snooker. Or perhaps it was the best decision of all time. Although there are some lapses in concentration from the commentator and the referee that might have severely affected the result, the records were tumbling on the old green board and it's an amazing game of snooker. Who won? You know how to find out. Keep an eye on richardherring.com/gigs for news of the upcoming live frame. If you want to give to the RHLSTP kickstarter head to rhlstp.co.uk/kickstarter

 Frame 95 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 25:00

Frame 95: A Broken Man. As the 100th frame approaches, the contest to find out who will be ahead at this arbitrary stage is really heating up. But this is an awful frame of snooker, both players tired from late nights, with half an eye on baby monitors, under the dim lights of unshaded light bulbs. You are lucky you can't see it and just have to listen. And the victory is hollow and empty today with the loser broken and the pointlessness of the tussle maybe finally becoming clear in his mind. At least none of the people involved actually listen to this. Imagine how much lower than them you are.

 Frame 94 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 22:00

Frame 94: Bung. Back from Edinburgh and the old slights literally forgotten in the last month, Me1 and Me2 return to the green board to try and settle this like men. Well like a man. Taking on two fairly similar personalities, both of whom aren't very good at snooker. Or are they? Some spectacular breaks await your ears and also some fouls. But hanging over it all like a ghost at the feast, the possibility of corruption. How is this still going on?

 Frame 93 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 27:00

Frame 93: Mr Broofing. Welcome to Frame 93 of Me1 Vs Me2 Snooker, this week sponsored by MRB Roofing (http://mrbroofing.co.uk) for all your North Herts roofing needs. And it's a controversial grudge match, as the enmity between the two players increases, which might lead to fisticuffs in real life, but it just means fireworks on the old green board. After a voided frame tensions are higher than ever, but who will win. And who will sponsor this showcase for the UK's fastest growing new sport next. Contact herring1967@gmail.com to get your company or name above this well-roofed arena.

 Frame 92 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 28:00

Frame 92: Snooker Egg. Welcome to the newly names Pliny Memorial Nest (like a bird's nest) Arena, renamed for our sponsor Pliny, a fictional crow who died on TV exactly 20 years ago to this day. And as the Tories battle it out to see who will lose to Boris Johnson, Me 1 and Me 2 are also at an epoch defining stage of this contest and the repercussions could echo down the ages. Who will win this tussle? The snooker is dirty and bad, but you can not fault the entertainment value that you will get in this frame. It will have you on the egg-de of your seat.

 Frame 91 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 23:00

Frame 91: Dying Air Pods. There is still a lot of bad blood between the two players after the denouement of the last frame, but who will come out on top in the psychological thriller? And will the uncharged AirPods last the course of the frame? Plus which player is the best runner and how many drugs and Tories references can Commentator 1 get into the frame? It's another absolute thriller of a contest between these two snooker lightweights which will send you reeling this way and that and taking nose cocaines like a Michael Gove.
