It’s Richard Marsland day today. Free travel for anyone busting a wide stance, while sitting on a hay bale, drinking a Cherry-Anne Kennerley, and doing a tight ten. #ImRichard #GetThis #YarraTrams

I sat in on the Billy West ’07 ep, I secretly filmed bits of #GetThis, recording Richard Marsland recording a Howard sketch etc. I sent this to Rich a week later & he said “If I had known you were filming, I would’ve done a piece to camera for you!”
Total regret.#ImRichard pic.twitter.com/n9pU9HBASu— Matt Fulton (@MattFultonComAu) December 6, 2018
#imrichard I miss you.
He raced down from the breakfast show (after 9) to see me and the two other people who came to protest. It had been a year since #getthis had wrapped. He was so generous. pic.twitter.com/BzjGkUc3qu

It’s been ten years since we lost Richard Marsland, a selfless kind hearted and hilarious human – we still miss you, but the laughs you gave us live on.
