Best Of XFM - Karl Pilkington - Ricky Gervais - Stephen Merchant by Gdog

[@harleygator]

If you ranked the 100 funniest things ever said on radio, clips from RSK on xfm would be all 100 of them. Imagine if you were driving, listening to this live, and you heard Karl say "it was like a ripped tennis ball"... I would've crashed.

[@YusiDJordan]

Honestly, I don’t think so. I’d pit maybe 10-15 moments from the show in top 100, and 2-3 in the top 10. Anthony Cumia, Louis CK, Jim Morton, Patrice O Neal, Bob Kelly, Colin Quinn and Jay Mohr are sickeningly funny on radio. Heck, Ricky was funnier on opie & Anthony than on this show. What made this show excellent was Karl.

What a load of utter drivel​@@YusiDJordan

[@YusiDJordan]

​@@jbri1 Ratings-wise they demolished the Ricky Gervais show in both terrestrial, global and satelite numbers. The only place the Ricky Gervais show really did very well was in podcast downloads and in the HBO syndication. but you're entitled to your idiotic opinion.

[@PaddyRoon7]

The horse in the house is still the quintessential Karl moment for me. Just says it in passing like it's nothing out of the ordinary. Definitely get why it's Steve's favourite moment.

These guys get me through so many drab and depressing days. I even bring my mobile into the garden with my coffee to listem to them. Also first thing in the morning.

[@danr573]

I was in physical pain laughing at the horse in the house story, a comedy writer couldn't come up with something as genius as that

[@conorkennedy3304]

where did they get a horse Karl?

Wow, a video where you can actually hear Karl without having to boost the volume every time he talks.

[@shanilemeow2942]

And then Ricky's laugh tears your ears in two.

[@BoutYoungAnnaLee]

I don’t think he had a mic of his own in the early days.

[@FutureAbe]

@@BoutYoungAnnaLeeyea he did. He was actually in a separate booth or sat opposite them. He just was shy

[@FutureAbe]

Steve’s reaction to “it’s like a ripped tennis ball” is pretty amazing

[@Jack-xy3pm]

pork chop tumor probably the best of all time. i was breathless when i first heard that.

[@mini_mozzer]

its the way he doubles down after saying it that gets me

[@fetalspawn635]

Thanks for feeding my Karl addiction!

[@veronica3986]

And mine!! I listen to these podcasts a lor...inc going to sleep & any boring moments during the day....😂

[@cerevor]

Karl is always all over the place regarding animals. Sometimes he's ridiculously empathetic to some insect, imagining it thinks like a person, other times he's like, "what is so bright about them" or "let's get rid of it". Or the perfect example is in this episode. Ricky says a Bonobo is the smartest monkey (supposedly), Karl who created "Monkey News" (at least the content), where monkeys behave like cartoons and little people, wonders if a Bonobo could do anything that makes them comparable to a human. All over the place.

[@EddieKM]

That's what makes him so .. interesting. There is no logic to his thinking

[@veronica3986]

​@@EddieKMno karl discovered that if you open your mouth & talk, words come out !! Lol 😂

[@FutureAbe]

It’s so confusing.. He’s alright with monkeys starting businesses or being photographers or having PhD’s.. But writing Shakespeare? No way

'A baby that had a baby' is such a great, memorable comment. It just sounds almost musical.

1:06:18 this will never cease to shock me. Karl's dad is SUCH a little scoundrel. Manc thief.

[@gn-gary4864]

Loved this

[@davepratt9132]

The infinite typewriters thing has me crying every time. And the guy that writes in is wrong probability reaches 1.

[@charliegraves2356]

Dave Pratt he’s right, as the probability of the monkey typing Shakespeare correct each attempt is not 1, so you can’t be certain it will ever happen

[@lockyhocky2]

@@charliegraves2356 but given an infinite amount of time, the probability of it happening is 1

[@potatosarenice3286]

Some of this stuff isn't from xfm. Its just from ricky Gervais show

[@Ripplin]

They're so young looking in that thumbnail. Well, two of them, anyway.

[@HeatyFrog]

I'm pretty sure that guy with the A-level is wrong. The more trials you have, the closer the probability of some event happening gets to 1. So if you have infinite trials, the probability is 1, so it happens

[@RickyVWorld]

But it's totally possible to go an infinate amount of time without doing something right?

[@frusciantesplectrum7980]

Ricky Wheeler it depends on what time you was making that statement as time needs consciousness to perceive it

[@NotaFollower11]

@@frusciantesplectrum7980there is no point where consciousness can perceive the fact that an infinite amount of time has passed because infinity never passes it goes on for ever and ever, therefore you can never say it hasn't worked because an infinite amount of time would not have passed. The probability is always 1

[@frusciantesplectrum7980]

@@NotaFollower11 ahh yes. I stand corrected.

[@lindatruderung9378]

Rick and Steve keep complaining over the numer of holidays or days off Karl takes. Considering the shite those two put him through, he deserves them! Truth be told, if I had to put up with them, I'd ask for twice as many days off!
