"Looks like Suzanne from the back" 😂😂🙊🙊

Love these reactions, im from Norway and i love British humor, and i love Karl 😁, thx for pumping out these Josh, its like seeing them all for the first time.

[@otda3675]

When Karl cooks for the king, has got to be one of the funniest sequences on tv ever recorded, when he gets frustrated for only having one box of custard absolutely kills me, I love that ur American like me but still get Karl and understand why he’s so funny. I cringe when other Americans watch him and say stuff like “I don’t know why people think this is funny” or “why make a show of a guy complaining” 👍 and shared already while watching

[@susanmaggiora4800]

OTDA I’m sure that’s exactly what Karl would say about this program if he were at home, watching another bloke doing this😅 Karl has some very ‘American’ sensibilities..

[@girlsdrinkfeck]

@@susanmaggiora4800 u mean hes simple

[@ethanvallance3437]

girlsdrinkfeck I don’t think he’s dumb but his mind sees things very black and white. “Why you riding a horse, just get a car!” Obviously life isn’t that simple but it’s also true a car is just much better.

[@AfterWorkReactions]

Thanks bud I really love that part he was so frustrated and no one even explain any of their customs to him . When they said where is the meat .that look lol

[@Jason_Van_Stone]

I'm American, and I LOVE British humor.

Karl teaching that class was pure gold! And Karl was upset bout Ricky petting his cat, can’t imagine how he felt bout that hippo getting a massage

[@RM-me7vi]

I get absolutely stoned off my head and sit down with half the food in the house and watch these lol

[@oslafoirausuebutuoy5457]

45:09 The three of them have said in interviews that they haven't fallen out, but that they don't see each other as much now because they are busy doing their own projects. When they asked Karl in an interview a couple of years ago, he said: "We ain’t fallen out but I hardly ever see either of them. One of the last times I saw Ricky he farted on my head so I’m not in a rush to meet with him anytime soon."

[@veronica4004]

I lost it when Karl said, "It looks like Suzanne from the back..." and your laughter gave out 🤣🤣🤣 I keep coming back to this episode....so funny

ive re-watched this show plenty of times, and its nice to watch it along with someone , thanks for doing this.

Literally need to sleep but can’t help watching

[@Stidean]

Karl has never been happier on any of his trips. Between the camper, the hippo visit, the market... he danced 😆😁😁

[@higofyp]

You're absolutely right and I love your perspective on the empowerment side when it comes to charity. I read a report that sadly the clothing donations to Nairobi specifically have destroyed their textile industry because people won't pay for a beautiful locally made garment when they can buy whatever shit we ship over there for pennies. Kind of makes the whole thing feel hollow, knowing that yeah, you're able to clothe people in need for cheap, but those who had a blossoming business and a trade have been squeezed out to cater to our sense of morality and virtue.

[@jimb9063]

Sadly not unique. I remember hearing a big project to "buy every village a goat" backfired when it was realised the goats were destroying the local enviroment. We probably all broadly agree on the end goal on all of this, but the means we use to get there do not always help. It's damn difficult to get it right. I'm not sure that anything short of finding alien life somewhere can make us realise we are one race, on the same side.

[@BlueZoneUK]

Honestly is the most rewarding thing. Spent 4 weeks in a small little town in Kenya and we helped build 4 classrooms for the local schools!

There’s always the XFM radio show, but there’s no video for that. There’s loads of it though, just type tinpot radio into Spotify, it’s all on there 😃

[@SaintPhoenixx]

Karl and Ricky still get along from what I've seen, they just seem to have drifted apart. Ricky still tells stories about Karl and they never chat shit about each other, it just seems like Ricky went off to create more shows and Karl's kind of sunk back into his own life. They've made shows, radio and podcasts together, I'm sure they still keep in touch, they both just have other stuff to do. Edit: Spellcheck sucks.

[@charliegraves2356]

Yeah im just pointing it out as most Americans (people in general) don't get to ever see SA in a good light. Like this they don't imagine we have big cities, 5 star hotels, uber etc. I want people to visit so I just wanted to let you know that this is the equivalent of going the homless tent areas in LA.

There’s something so hilarious about the addition of your laughing! 😂 Keep them coming! After Idiot PLEASE do The Moaning of Life! Karl being unfiltered Karl for two glorious seasons! Also, the guy who does comedy relating to confronting scammers is Joe Lycett. Also James Veitch! Both are fantastic!

Stay safe guys.xx

Omg, that would be on my bucket list without a doubt. Gorillas are my favorite animals. I want my Dian Fossey experience. Such incredible animals. They look strong and chill at the same time. Koko the gorilla knew sign language and met many stars like Robin Williams, Mr Rogers and Flea (Red Hot Chili Peppers). And she looooved kittens. She had her own pet kittens. One day Koko got angry and ripped the sink off the wall. When her care taker asked who did it, she signed the kittens did it. lol.

[@joshuachapman4039]

Completely agree with Josh’s views on charity and how it’s necessary but needs to be accompanied by larger scale help to better communities and help people help themselves. Look forward to watching these each night

[@tbone35453]

When I first watched this, I was a bit of a Gervias/Merchant fanboy and basically agreed with everything they said. I joined in, laughing thinking "look at Karl, he's so stupid." Now, 9 years later, I agree much more with Karl, and Gervais and Merchant come across as a couple of arrogant armchair commentators.

[@rhysdrakefordbennett6818]

Literally been waiting all night for this hoping you'd upload the next episode... not long about to go bed & here we are again. I'm prepared for alot of laughs, killing it on the channel at the moment buddy. Your subs are rocketing at the moment, keep hustling my man ✊🏼⚡

They havent stopped being friends, they just all went on to other things and time and distance can make it hard.

c mb Ricky literally was talking about Karl a few days ago in an instagram live. You can watch it on KZbin.

[@jonnycwell]

@@cmb741 they didn't fall out. They're just adults with multiple friends and if Ricky was expected to talk about everyone he has worked with then he'd have no time to breathe. They're almost certainly still friends and Ricky spoke about Karl recently in a livestream

Yeah you're talking garbage mate.. He was talking about him the other day and said he was on the phone to Karl.......

Karl was on The Lorraine Kelly show a few days ago (the clip is on here) talking about if he would work again with Ricky or do another series of his own show, doesnt sound like the fell out just went different directions, which could be a good thing, you know leave on a high.

[@xandervampire195]

I think Steve misunderstood Karl. Steve seemed to think he was saying that it's pointless but I think the message Karl was actually trying to convey was that he felt like his contribution in building the house wasn't enough. He saw how big the problem was and wished they could do more. He only mentioned his charity donations when Steve took it the wrong way and implied that Karl didn't want to help. Just look at his face when he's describing it to Steve, that's the look of a man who wants to help more but doesn't know how to.

Well Ricky mentioned Karl not to long ago in a live video he did so I don't think there was a massive falling out, I think they all just went and done their own thing. Stephen said not long ago he saw Karl recently and loves him which was nice to hear! 😊

[@adamellis6785]

I feel like Karl really doesn't get what he's done by helping to build that hut. He looks at the "600,000" left to go, and feels he's done nothing. While no one can make everyone's world better, he did make that family's world better. There's a quote from Spider Robinson that goes, "Shared pain is lessened; shared joy is increased." The happiness he gave that family will spread, not only to their friends and family, but also to all of us! I looked at their new home, imagined the pride they must take in it, and was made happy by the thought. I only wish Karl could share in the joy he created, but it really seems that he doesn't see it.

[@twyckoff87]

Karl: "No, this isn't a style. I'm bald. I didn't tell them take that bit off, leave that. ... Do you want to play on a bike?"

i love this channel, i laugh until i cry at almost every single thing, but this one when karl's in africa and he gets nothing from the experience of volunteer work, thats made me cry tears of sadness 😥 ive spent time in africa doing volunteering and it was the most amazing thing i have ever done. being british and classed as living below the poverty line, i can hand on heart tell you that until you visit places like africa you have no idea what poverty really is! 97% of the population in the area i stayed were HIV positive, one of the tasks i did was helping in an orphanage, there was approx 100 babies (0 to 18 months old) the youngest was a 5 day old prem baby, most were there because their parents had died from aids. when the older kids arrived back from school theyd fuss over the little ones then within minutes set off trekking with water containers to the local well. so sorry this is turning into an essay 😞 my main point is throwing money at an issue often makes charities rich, being hands on genuinely matters and helps. sorry for the rant xxx
