[@rspratt]

I love Ricky and am enjoying the show but listening to the Robin Ince chat I became frustrated that Robin couldn't finish a sentence without Ricky butting in without letting him finish what he was saying. Ricky, you need to listen more and talk a little less sometimes. I hope he lets Dawkins speak when I get there...

[@MrJamesdryable]

Robert Spratt He didn't.

[@aartdevletter5822]

To be fair, Robin has had quite a fair share of speech lol. Sounds like u havent really timed it at all, more like a hunch

[@33hegemon]

Well, I guess as the host, Ricky has the right to interject, bit I do agree he butts in a bit too much. He's always been like that, though, if you've followed his career, I don't think he'll change now.

[@Jimxorb]

To be fair, Robin Ince talks a lot and very fast, Ricky is his mate, we all have mates we have to interrupt to get a word in. It is Ricky’s show and he wants to obviously be in control. Also Ricky may know what Robin is going to say because he knows him so well, we are all guilty of interrupting people when we know what they are going to say.

[@rspratt]

I agree. Ricky did calm down a bit as the show progressed

[@deanwhite1972]

1:02:40 "I've been watching chimps for 6 years in the zoo". "A 5 year old would say that. That's like a 5 year old". Well done, Ricky. Well done.

This is great for anyone who doesn't like Richard Dawkins, you can hear him get interrupted and talked over again and again.

[@georgebradley4583]

Ricky Gervais is the Karl Pilkington in the room. I’d have preferred to have just listened to Richard Dawkins and Robin Ince have a discussion.

[@pgoughy]

Ricky is very confident talking about biology with Professor Richard Dawkins.

[@33hegemon]

Philip Gough Yeah, his knowledge is comparable to Dawkins', at least in his own mind.

[@alexisjuillard4816]

@@33hegemon ridiculous... you clearly know little about him if you think that

[@alexisjuillard4816]

Ricky is a much deeper person then he seems. He has a masters in philosophy and that is something that can be seen in everything he does, even his jokes are frequently influanced by his education and frequently carry a deeper message. And before doing philosophy, ricky was a huge fan of the sciences. He still is, he even started with biology in college before philosophy. So yeah he has a bit of backround, especially as he is passionate about this topic and has continued mearning though his personal research and his entourage. I mean he's friends with so many brilliant scientists, from dawkins to harris and that has really given him a broader and more nuanced view. And saying "professor" like that seems to imply ricky can't hold his own in a conversation with dawkins regarding biology, because dawkins is an authority. Thats dumb. If it were the case nobody could talk about anything. I m in physics, does that mean i can't have an opinion or conversation in biology? Why? I mean i love biology and i have been doing my researches and learning it for 15 years, but i m not a biologist so i can't talk about it? What if i tell you i m currently taking biology courses because what i want to research is at the crossroad between physics and many other disciplines, most prominently biology (want to specialise inastrobiology). Do i need to wait to have finished a course to be able to talk about it? Or a degree? If not where is the line? You see it makes no sense, dude i ve been studying physics for half a decade but if a flat earther comes to debate me i ll treat him the same way as i would an actual physicist who comes to sell a fringe idea like the electric universe conjecture. Aka if the flat earther doesn't know anything about physics believe me i ll see it fast, and he will be the sole actor in his own undoing

[@fblio7146]

Dawkins is a great guest. But you know, deep in you heart, you HAVE to bring Karl back for at least one episode of this.

[@NxDoyle]

I used to love Ricky. But his recent career revisionism i.e. omitting Steve from The Office and Extras, is really galling. He goes on and on in interviews about being an auteur, and even in Q&A's where Steve is mentioned explicitly, Ricky avoids answering. Which is pretty churlish, at best. Especially when you consider that Steve's role at the BBC opened the door for The Office. When I think of Ricky now, I think of him in the context of another highly regarded comedy figure, Armando Iannucci, whose upcoming Death of Stalin has meant that Armando has done some recent long form interviews. Now, _he is_ an auteur. And he doesn't self-aggrandize, nor does he omit integral figures, nor does he squeeze the life out of beloved characters until they are dead. Ricky murdered David Brent.

[@interglotti3858]

Plus, whenever he gets asked about the podcasts he goes on a verbal ramble slowly changing the subject

[@fsyeah]

No, in the previous episode, there are over 30,000 views and only around 380 comments.. Even if every single one of those comments was about Karl, how could you possibly determine that is what "everyone" wants? It's ridiculous. Just enjoy the podcast or move on. Gervais doesn't need to cater to the vocal minority, there's every episode of their XFM show on here, free for you to listen to, as is this.

[@GhastlyCretin]

Ricky says he doesn't focus on things he hates yet when he's talking to a brilliant biologist he can't help but bring up the tiniest group of people that are stupid enough to think that they have disproved evolution because they haven't seen any genetic changes in chimps after 6 years of observation. Why are you bringing these people up? Even the most passionate creationists usually aren't stupid enough to argue that point. Seems really trivial.

[@TerrorTerros]

thx for this man!

[@925cerberus]

First class, thanks.

[@Sari36YT]

Robin and Richard make this episode. Gervais is so desperate to be liked and to try and prove how smart he is. He says 'of course' a billion times and rushes to speak over to people to say the same things he says all the time. Someone made a good point on a previous episode that I haven't listened to because it's more of the same except with worse guests, episode 2, but Gervais really does seem to have turned into a real David Brent. All he wants to be is liked and he'll say whatever he can to be part of the group.

[@RobSpendelow]

this needs video - its so good! Good to hear Ricky doing an intellectual podcast - it could overshadow JRE and is a much more humorous and listenable take on what Brand is trying to do. Exciting times

[@OfficialFingazMC]

Genuine question: Ricky always goes on about in a few 100 thousand years we won't be Homosapians anymore, I'm sure he's right and I do actually agree. But haven't crocodiles, sharks and jellyfish been the same for millions of years now? IF that is true (and I don't know that it is, hence me asking) then how do we know we haven't pretty much hit our peak? Or is the slightest little thing going to be looked back on in thousands of years as different hominid? Because I've got some mates that really couldn't be classed as even human tbh and I know some lasses that are so close to perfect that it makes me think we may have cross bred with a form of angel at some point ( okay pain meds may be kicking in now, *But my original question still stands* ).

[@snooty217]

Crocodiles aren't the same as say a million years ago, but they have been around (or crocodile-like creatures have been around) for 200-250 million years or so, as man has been around for 250 000 years. Now what constitutes as change can be microscopical and it can be random or specific. Animals do not breed like we breed dogs for example and breeding dogs is not random. Every animal is perfect for their environment or they do not survive, human-animals have changed their environment so that they can survive in it. That is not exactly evolution, as humans have something called social evolution as well, but as humans are a product of evolution, we either change or go extinct. Dawkins has said many times, that the small window of our individual time alive sadly makes it hard for us to comprehend the full scale and spectrum of the world and evolution. We should not let our social evolution and vast (well we think it's vast) knowledge let us get ahead thinking we are somehow more evolved as crocodiles or worms, just because we can speak and sit on the toilet writing long answers to a question no one can answer. I promise you, everything will be different when given time; we have not studied evolution even for 300 years and see what magnificent things we have dug up and how we have learnt to see evolution all around us. Only if we keep an open mind and remember that science is not to be treated like religion, there is no sides to it, no teams to pick. That angel thing is shit. Love from Finland Ps. We might have hit our peak, we just can't tell. But if we have, so what and if we haven't then...so what. Evolution does not "work for the better" in a way that we like to see it (Like Karl Pilkington once said "everything wants to speak and is heading for that goal"...). Humans are however a flagship in the Earths history as we know it, in that we actively change our surroundings and are as bad or worse than a city-sized meteor and that is evolution or has evolution in it, but by no means is it the peak of evolution. We must understand that humans may destroy this planet, but something may survive or then nothing survives, humans may go extinct and then the planet keeps pushing on. I find it hard to believe that humans still exist a 100 000 years from now and if they do, they must have done something different from us and come to their senses or just a handful has survived by changing once again by evolution to live and breed in the horrific conditions we are now inflicting and generating. I will go as far as to say, man should not have left the fucking cave...
