Ricky Gervais Show XFM - S2 , E17

[@wormswithteeth]

Love Clare wish she was in this more

[@sisifromthefuture]

It's so funny when Steve sings because he almost always never knows how the song goes xD

[@trachtaire]

I wonder what happened to that pirate film Mackenzie Crook is starred in...

[@LouieC]

At 0:07 they said no Karl, immediately on to the next one. Sorry lads, but I think Karl had a hand in making Ricky's career, therefor, not funny w/o him. Well onto S2, E18. Laters.

[@SmellySpick]

yes, because Karl starred and wrote the office.

[@LouieC]

I said had a hand in making his career, I didn't say he did make it. So u doubt that he helped boost Ricky's career? No doubt RG made KP's career, but he helped his as well.

[@siwooot]

***** Many of the jokes from The Office sound inspired by Karl though

[@LouieC]

***** and some of Ricky's stand up!!

+G86 Agree - listening to these, they are so much tighter, more consistent, less baggy than the Karl episodes. 'Course Karl's a producer of magic moments so he brings his own unique genius, but Ricky and Steve operate on such an almost telekinetic basis and listening to their babble is like getting a glimpse into the writing process for The Office, Extras, etc. It's a very different style to the Karl episodes but once you get into it it's brilliant. But you're never going to convince some people...a lot of Karl's fans seem to dislike Steve and his style of humour intensely, and never liked Extras and The Office anyway. Some of them(a small number let me make it clear...) are proper blokey, homophobic, misogynistic bell ends. Personally I love Karl, Ricky and Steve pretty much equally so It doesn't bother me...

[@GooglyEyedJoe]

I noticed that when Karl isn't here, Steve seems to take the chance to be the main talker for once and keeps ignoring Claire and just blabbering on to Rick about things, I feel a bit sorry for Claire in this one.

[@thesprawl2361]

+Joey Lock Honestly, I think they're showing off because there's a gurl in the room. It's the same whenever she's there... I think I passed these Claire episodes over first time around because Karl's not in them, but they're still great to listen to.

[@GooglyEyedJoe]

The Sprawl True, that's the odd phenomenum amongst some blokes, when a girl is in the room they suddenly become a lot more louder and jokey, I guess as you say its because they're subconsciously trying to impress. I quite liked the Claire episodes, the one with Ian Camfield standing in for Karl was a bit odd but it wasn't that bad.

[@greengeekgirl]

Smerch sounds like he's on a crapload of coke when he gets free reign to talk. So fast!

[@jonanice]

Mmm pretty boring without Karl

[@bbbbear9]

*you're

[@Metrallata]

It's not good without karl it's best. i wish karl quit here

[@DjRenect]

Skip

[@optifog]

I honestly thought Ricky was going to say that the man in Burger King gave him extra chips to insult him for being fat. It's lucky I'm not famous, because that's the way I'd have interpreted it, even though I'm not fat, lol.

[@TheDrunknz]

Woot, Ive been wating all day for my XFM fix!! LOL Thanks

[@K-J-B]

Cheers for another great episode.
