1:00:25 Ricky is so wrong here its funny.

[@radiochestify]

Also it would be great if somebody was motivated to make english subtitles for english learners it would be easier to understand everything because it's not easy to guess all the jokes from the context . I want to say also that Karl is using very well the language actually, to express with a lot of poetry the feelings that he has as he looks at himself kind of dreaming awake. Just try to write your dreams and make it something beautiful that is not easy. He's investigating on his proper mind, observing his subconscious' speech and writing everything down everyday. I call him a real artist. I'm not totally sure that rick has enough respect for him, but as a comic maybe, they make an interesting pair anyway.
