+Mike Shuttleworth I think it's more Ricky Gervais and his utter arrogance that pushes to make Karl out to be an idiot. Frankly Karl has some good ideas. He is good at looking at things from a different perspective. He analyzes things that others take for granted. He may be a little ignorant on things that are common knowledge to others but he more than makes up for it by coming up with ideas of how things may work from the knowledge he does have.

​@@haleynic I've been listening to the podcasts recently (yet again), what I put it down to is mainly Karl's vocabulary. He has said this himself that he has trouble expressing his thoughts clearly into the right words and struggled with school, we still understand what he means, but the slight errors cause confusion with Ricky and Steve who didn't struggle with school as much. But the hilarious thing is that Ricky and Steve see themselves as intellectually superior due to their 'academic intelligence', which is mainly the ability to retain knowledge and regurgitate it back. Karl I would argue is just as intelligent (if not more) than Ricky and Steve, it's a natural, curious, intuitive intelligence, and he can think laterally in a way that the others can't. TL;DR: Karl is living proof that you don't need to be well-read and academically gifted to be a very intelligent and perceptive person. It was most likely it the schooling system that has led him and others to perceive him as less intelligent, it's a shame because he's actually brilliant

What are y’all on about…? laughter is when something diverts from expectation, who here can tell where a Karl story is going to end up once he starts talking? It’s the pov he has that differs from many other people that draws people to Karl. Ex 4:50 how many people would consider what he said to be a positive/motivating thing if he didn’t explain it? He purposefully went against the grain, which is why he’s appreciated by those that understand his thought process. Just my 2cents

He's great and reminds me why I left the posh part of Sale (AKA Altrincham) in 1968. Brilliant! He's spot on with the tourist tat - I've travelled to many countries and not seen most of their tourist traps but really enjoyed sitting in backstreet cafes and wandering right off the beaten track. But the Taj *is* awesome in the true sense of the word.

***** And to be clear Karl was the one implying that its obvious and that everyone agrees that the icing is not the best part. I am sure most of the inhabitants of the world would rather eat the icing but Karl thinks we just need to think about it and then we will realize that its not the best part. Thats what makes him different. Maybe some people don't like the icing (I am sure its a minority), but those who do like icing are very certain further study is not needed.

I genuinely thing that he's a good person and he's entertained me so many times. I'm totally different from him, but I understand him. Thanks Karl! I wouldn't want to meet any celebrity, Hollywood stars, I don't care, but I'd love to go for a walk with him.
