Shortlist interview with Ricky Gervais and Karl Pilkington | @Dreamtek

[@Twangabilly]

I’ve listened to enough XFM/podcasts to have been able to play this and get the answers right myself

[@Bellocks1]

Play a record

[@shirtstealer86]

I’ve been thinking we should have a get together and a quiz on RSK. And just loads of questions like “what were Karl’s near death experiences” and stuff like that. I think I would get way too many right 😅

The last bit😂😂😂😂 no one can write that!! That's just comedy gold, came out of wonderful mind of Karl Pilkington 😂😂❤️

[@OctoberCountryy]

so nice seeing karl laugh and having a good time, feel like he’s always playing defense on the podcasts

[@Luke-yx5ve]

I think after xfm radio shows he had to keep it up to remain the same so they really went into the things they brought out in that

[@rahuldahoob]

This is about 12 years ago

[@daniellealexandra237]

It's adorable how Karl thought pet hate means things you hate about having a pet 😂

[@baflabies]

he is to pure ! 🤗

When it shits somewhere and you can’t find it 😂

[@carlmarston1687]

“I don’t have a pet so I’m not bothered”

[@amp4105]

it is fair to be honest, people normally ask "pet peeve" not pet-hate

so glad they didn't edit this down.

[@shirtstealer86]

So nice to finally see this in HD!! Thank you!

[@5608Mjh]

21:34 Comedy gold with out trying. I love Carl's logic. The pet hate had me laughing so hard , my stomach hurt.

[@LiamKOP]

7:29 shows to me that Ricky truly loves Karl as a brother, 'cos who would seriously get that annoyed at not knowing someone's favourite book

[@Carol-bu2ru]

Thk u boys for the laughs. Listen to u all the time.❤

[@TheOldSilverFox79]

The “wonderful tonight” part has me crying, Ricky saying that Karl believes it’s about a disabled fella due to the line “she puts him to bed” 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

[@wesc2524]

Thanks to Ricky for as he says is his gift to the world aka Karl Pilkington, the banter between them is TOTAL COMEDY GOLD! I really wish they'd start doing the Ricky Gervais show with Stephen MERCHANT (the cartoon version) as well because the 3 of them together is just AMAZING!! 😂😅❤

[@BlackJack-sx1jw]

I love these 3 guys. Karl, Ricky and Stephen Merchant are just brilliant.

[@spinny003]

Found it in HD. Nice.

[@MohammedAli-pf9nn]

I never thought I'd see a HD version of this, I thought it was impossible, I had to do a double take

[@TheHighExecutioner]

He makes a scary sort of sense at time 😂 This is brilliant

[@dedpxl]

hahahaha I love the interviewer trying not to laugh

[@user-rd6vf7xk1x]

@20:55 warms by heart when Karl has a laugh

[@Scallion_D]

Tears in my eyes over the end lol. Fuckin hell.

[@TrystanDavies-n5y]

The shapeshifting discussion is up there with the funniest conversations they're ever had hahah

[@kaiparedes3903]

“I think I’d appreciate life more after seeing it through the eyes of a fly” is actually based af

[@hansgielen3511]

I have legit tears in my eyes from the superpower part

[@davern6]

3:43 love how karl seems to not pick up on the “meat and two veg” joke 😂

[@AA-hg5fk]

Karl isn't a little gay fella. Each to their own though, I'm not having a go.

this was fantastic

These two are gifts that keep on giving 😂😂😂

[@eimearoconnor1522]

The pet hate- saves the best and daftest answer till last :D

[@trystandavies2469]

I dno, his shapeshifting answers are pretty moronic even for Karl - and he picked the superpower! doesn't make sense!

[@matteotomaso7204]

That is one of the best interactions I have seen. 🤣🤣🤣

[@bazglsgw1208]

I read Claptons book, he wrote Wonderful Tonight because he was bored while waiting for Pati to get ready for a night out. He picked up a guitar n wrote the song while waiting for her to get ready.

[@syok1107]

wait wait a GOOD quality upload of this has been available for TEN years?! why is the shotty one so popular??

[@amp4105]

"This is coming from the man that puts sausages in a toaster" "Good point..." Hes more self aware than most people

[@user-il9nc9tk6i]

18:40 fast forward a couple years and Ricky plays a dolphin in family guy 😂

[@weekendwarriorprospecting817]

Karl isn't that odd at all. We've all done weird things out of innocence. I remember putting on a Superman 🦸‍♂️ costume as a child and spent about 25 minutes in my grandma's garden trying to fly. She said when I came back in, I wasn't sad but just really disappointed. "I can't fly, grandma." 😂😂

[@daryldooey1]

this is gold

[@BurgerTime7441]

Karl is so funny. Ricky is lucky to have him

[@noeldarby1635]

Kes a great movie me and my pals used to quote it at school in 90s,it was an old film even then

[@michaelcollins3384]

I would have thought that Karl's favourite food would be oranges... because, after all, you are what you eat :D

[@angelajerram840]

My two favourite funny people.

[@thedrews29]

Mental note..... Don't eat when watching these two, risk of choking 😀

[@lindsayantwine1097]

Ricky is obsessed with Karl and honestly, who isn't? Lol I fucking love Karl.

[@japooskas]

@10:35 Carl: have to be careful with pork .. has to be cooked right Producer: coming from the man that puts sausages in the toaster lmao that got me

[@LHyoutube]

In fairness, Karl was right about the bluebottle/dolphin bit. Shapeshifting as a superpower would only involve transforming yourself into a different shape or creature. It wouldn't also magically involve teleporting yourself somewhere else where that creature thrives or typically inhabits. So turning into a dolphin in the middle of London (whether on dry land or in the nearest polluted river) would probably be much more grim than Ricky's vision of being one out in the open oceans! 😂

[@Evravon]

But you're a shapeshifter. You don't have to turn into a Dolphin in the middle of London. You could become a falcon and fly wherever you want, then go become a dolphin in the ocean...

[@rensbrand5176]

I had never heard of the term blue bottle before, but it seems to be a jellyfish like creature. How would that thrive in London any better than a dolphin would?

[@Evravon]

@@rensbrand5176 He mentioned that it was flying (I think), so after doing some research, he's either talking about a fly they call a Blue Bottle, or a parasite wasp that's sometimes called a Blue Bottle.

[@tazzerdevil98]

@@rensbrand5176 its like a fly

[@2345francesca]

It's a type of fly that is most often seen during spring/summer in the UK, buzzing around food, bins or poo mainly "calliphora vomitoria" is the scientific name of it.

[@theprophet9429]

The dark haired one from Bananarama. Yeah, we all saw the video for Venus, Karl. 😜

[@Daniel-ld5im]

A sloth, so you can dream about being something else. A butterfly, so if you're not enjoying it you'll be dead in 24 hours. A bluebottle, so once you're finished throwing up and being sick on shit, you'll feel better about your life 😂

[@dfrossness]

This is the craziest thing ever - optimising for "in case I don't enjoy it".

[@TrystanDavies-n5y]

How Karl's mind works (or doesn't would be a better term) is beyond me haha

[@paddypureblood6282]

the discovery of Karl has to be the greatest find in history

[@Teckno77]

A Bluebottle ffs 😂😂😂haha. Karls ace!

[@dedpxl]

hahhahaahah 17:00 he'd be a sloth so he can sleep all the time and imagine not being a sloth, or he'd be a butterfly so he can die if he doesn't enjoy it. THAT'S HIS DESIRED SUPERPOWER. hahahah

[@PetroicaRodinogaster264]

It is 2024. So over 10 yrs since this was uploaded let alone recorded but … The trouble with Ricky is…he is brilliant at understanding the human condition and writing about it as his TV series and movies over the years since these days have shown. He has also been generous to many actors since The Office days and so many have gone on to greater accolades. He has stayed true to his beliefs about animal welfare and being a vegan etc and also his relationship with Jayne has endured for 40 yrs which says a lot about both of them. He is now very rich…his own words…but generous to charity. He has strong views on many things including the philosophical questions like religion and god/evolution etc. He is very conversant with certain areas of science and understands many concepts that others don’t. But…and it is a big but…though he believes it is crazy how we have become so sensitive about certain things and taken “being woke” to an extreme; he feels it is okay to poke fun at everything and nothing is off limits; though he ridicules himself even for being a bit over weight etc; he would not for one second allow anyone else to ridicule him while to him everyone else is fair game. It is this one thing that turns me off him as a man. As my mother would have said…if you give it…you have to take it and he cannot!

[@Evravon]

I am legitimately surprised that Karl survived into adulthood.

[@michaelryan2562]

Well done gold ⭐ for you

[@James-semaJ]

Invisibility is the worst super power ever. Purely because you wouldn't be able to see where you was going because the light wouldn't be able to reflect off your eyes. Shape shifting is awesome though, basically the same coz you could just shape shift in to a plant or something and nobody would see you.

[@xuxlabarks]

14:45 Karl is the most down on earth guy. Ricky just like to makes fun of him though. Ricky thinks shafeshifting implies idk flying all over the world. Karl just thinks, ok i have this power, I still have to go to work or home. Karl is fucking intelligent and is set on the parameters of let's say logic. Meanwhile Ricky goes on with that being just a broad question and is just hypothetical. It's kinda shows their personalities, it's not like Ricky is stupid either, it's just that he is more of a guy that thinks that needs to go farther than he should or can, in a way more positive about it. Karl is not that ambitious about that stuff he puts himself more limitations about it. And Ricky like to make fun of him either way...
