XFM The Ricky Gervais Show Series 2 Episode 22 - Colon then, educate me

[@ManMoth]

Hey guys, sorry for pinning this comment on all videos but I want to give you an update on the channel. I've been slowly adding a show archive to the videos including a full transcript added as sub titles and a full track listing (with links to KZbin videos for each track). Pilkipedia archive link has been added as well and I've been having fun illustrating some of KP's best bits, I'm adding these to a shop incase anyone is interested: www.man-moth.com/ It's taking me a while to update the archives, especially as I don't work Mondays so please bear with me as I chip away at it. Lots of love, Man Moth.

[@Glozboy22]

Ricky's reaction to the pork chop story is amazing. Genuine bewilderment transforming into irritation, then full on rage.

[@jasoneaton4520]

38:45 "play a record"..... - l couldnt believe it "Stop the record" 😂😂😂

[@tmsplltrs]

I fell asleep to the podcast then woke up hearing Ricky say "THIS WOMAN had a pork chop stuck to her ass for 5 years?! YOU MENTAL CASE". God I love this show.

[@Christoff070]

Passive aggressive is his reaction to almost everything though lol, he's always hungover eats too much cheese and doesn't drink water lolol

[@AA-hg5fk]

I think this is the one and only time they stop the record!

[@Pillysrule]

I was listening to this on massive road-trip in 2014 and had to pull the car over I was laughing so hard I thought I was going to crash the car. What a radio show.

[@travisclayton9448]

tim t​ haha i went through a rough break up and it helped me take my mind off things. There's something about these conversations that just work! Its perfect way to take away the stresses of the day and help you unwind and eventually drop off. I actually feel like I NEED to listen to sleep now haha

This is hands-down the single best episode of the lot: the birth of Monkey News, the Jamaican accent rock buster, getting the clue wrong, the pork chop story. Incredible

[@conorkennedy3304]

Congress Tarts

[@studkickass513]

It only turned out it was a pork chop that she'd sat on 5 years earlier and it'd stuck to her bottom. That sentence, in the accent of an exasperated Mancunion, is one of the funniest things that humanity has ever had

[@capnhawkins]

33:53 When Karl said "Ages ago..." I was expecting them to say "17th century?"

[@BoxerBoyPilky01]

They might not have said it but I sure did. Thought the same thing.

I literally said “17th century?” in my head with that bit

Who's listening to these again, this time during the COVID-19 quarantine?

[@teebs2724]

3rd way to through in lockdown, don't know how many overall. Have been working in a very quiet office with them on every day in my ear, the few who are here always a bit puzzled when I burst out laughing.

[@chrisnam1603]

[@Sightation]

I did 3 or 4 rounds years back & when I knew it all by heart felt empty & bereft. Now I’m back and have forgotten just enough to absolutely love it all over again. I find it beneficial to my mental health in this mad and depressing world. These Three are to comedy what the the Fab Four were to music.

[@HaydnG266]

@De Profundis same, but they are extra special during the China Virus

[@sladey31]

I’ve been listening most nights for the last 17 years. Wether it’s XFM or the numerous podcasts and audio books. Ricky Gervais deadly sirius. One way or another I’m. Listening to one of his shows 🤩

[@Falcon24588]

11:16 "they get on really better." I can't believe that went unnoticed by them

[@studkickass513]

I have always laughed at that. So strange.

[@user-sk5qo7qm2u]

Every episode they were getting more an more desensitised to his none sense

2019 and this show is still the best thing to binge listen during any occasion. I do wish the three of them would reunite for another series of podcasts, but I guess it’s like lightening in a bottle.

This got me through Lockdown 2. I have not recovered, but these XFM shows were a great companion.

Karl spouts absolute bollocks, insect expert woman disproves it with well articulated scientific fact, Karl "...yehhhhh but..." absolutely classic Dilkington

[@arun279]

She’s the perfect foil for Karl

[@Vingul]

Karl was right about the 18 knees, the lady was very arrogant.

[@RossMoore777]

I just looked it up and Karl was right. For insects, a knee refers to any hinge joint in the leg. Cockroaches have 3 hinge joints on each leg, so they have 18 knees. Also, she's right that cockroaches breathe through spiracles in each of their body segments, but they still breathe, and certain species have been shown to hold their breath for up to 40 minutes. Mad world innit?

[@stopdropandroll]

Yeah...but do we need em?

[@petergiffen100]

Steve's always sayin "that's what happened Rick, let him finish Rick! What are you talking about, it's the news ! It's the news Rick!"

[@jenanahulu]

I love Steve, they all compliment each other perfectly.

[@erica5624]

I think it’s because he was abit rude with the caller in this one

[@JD-Media]

Steve is the odd one out of the three, he feels like he's only there because of association with Ricky. The show has always been about Ricky and Karl.

[@kitpalmer1583]

James Dean strongly disagree. Steve is the most intentionally funny, Ricky is more just the annoying ringleader who met the right people

[@AA-fn9xz]

I think what makes the XFM podcasts just so re-listenable is that, you tend to listen to them when you’re doing other things... I listen to them in work, at home when I’m cooking, cleaning etc. So you never pay 100% attention for the full hour. That means when you listen to them again, you’ll probably hear something you didn’t catch the first time.

[@cartmanofsp]

They are great background noise, but there's never any boring parts or bits where you think ''ahh i'll skip this.'' It's so amazing how they managed to keep it fresh both on the radio and on the podcasts for 10+ years.
