[@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.

What do you think of Ricky's Absolutely Mental podcast with Sam Harris? Have you given it a listen?

[@michaelsmith-cg5ow]

Jhh

[@seanevans335]

"You were just talking about bird muck..." is low key the best thing ever said on XFM

[@doesitreallymatter23]

I genuinely adore when Karl is in a great mood. Bless him.

[@erizzle67]

1:12 "What were you moaning about, not having enough gay sex?" Steve with the quick wit!

[@Technolgy2]

wonder why ricky didn't appreciate it

Wangers and mash was pretty sharp as well

[@justinkline8437]

"What are you into?" "Galileo's good."

"Forget it." "NO!"

It's so funny that they were allowed to host a daytime radio show. Well, funny and mind-blowing.

It never ceases to amaze me how this was allowed to be broadcast of a Saturday lunchtime. Glad it was though!

[@BigEats99]

Cant believe I've listened to this for 10 years and I've never heard Ricky call Elephant Man news, Trunky News hahaha

[@SD-ym1rt]

Just read this what a great start to the day

[@butmay1893]

spoilers

[@enterthenoid9438]

i always love how ricky bursts with laughter when trying to tell the story about jizzing out the window

[@tauros128]

The beginning of Karl's boiler issues. They would only continue for the next 5 years.

[@HopeVJustice]

Hehe! Officially fixed then? ;D

[@JasperOosterveld]

Classic

[@Sightation]

So true. I love the moment of an organic introduction to a long term issue.

[@dannyboy_dannyboy8274]

I’d like to think he still has boiler issues now even though he’s a millionaire. Karl’s one of those ppl who will give it to you straight. There’s absolutely no hidden agenda. It’s like having a 6 year old talk & answer your questions. Hope fame hasn’t changed him x

[@str8904]

Suzanne, she's had a new floor & a new boiler.

[@Aalborg42]

Romantic music for Ricky is always "Girl from Ipanema"

[@jenanahulu]

right! that's like the 3rd time he's done that.

[@HopeVJustice]

Or Letter To Hermione :p

[@kraken589]

I always consider that to be elevator music

[@omikronweapon]

@@kraken589 I always assumed it sort of half ironic. Isn't it considered a bit of a gay staple? That little crossdresser/gay fella in Idiot Abroad sang it to Karl, didn't he? she? it?

[@w8m4n]

Isn't that where steve lost his glasses and shorts when having a piss in the sea?

[@andrewskylakos3585]

Karl laughing is so funny and genuine. But he's laughed before on air, like when that guy called in begging for tickets or something and Steve got pissed

[@ManMoth]

+Andrew Skylakos Yeah the guy who wants a wrist band and Steve tells him to piss off :-)

[@ste_the_humanps498]

Man Moth Could you enlighten me as to which episode that is :)

[@Candalls_Cards]

yes, i would be interested as well!

[@HopeVJustice]

Also the episode with "So.. you get a bulb, right..??!" ;D and the vietnamese lake worm where there was a picture of the guy smiling, when Ricky asks "Who, the worm??!" ;D

[@kraken589]

He laughed on a semi regular basis in season 1 of the xfm shows

[@matthewbowen517]

54:22 I love the way Steve takes up Ricky's role while he's not talking, "What are you talking about, that's not a story!". Classic Ricky line!

[@matthewbowen517]

Alrite?

[@jcrawley1]

"Well you were just talking about...bird muck" "What a classy show this is!"

[@justinkline8437]

Forget about jizz coming out of windows.

[@AA-hg5fk]

​@@Crunch_Buttsteak there weren't many more after this one.

[@KubbsWickedSoul]

The sex pamphlet story is hilarious every time. Even after having heard it 20 times now.

[@Glozboy22]

I so wish I could find a PDF of that pamphlet. Been trying to find it for ages.

[@liambennion9627]

E.g. a melon

[@Charlieandp]

"Placebo. A song for Karl there, that's special needs."

[@gotgot4]

Charlieandp he says that almost every time with that song I can’t tell if it’s a diss or Karl actually likes the song

[@6663000]

12:40 "whilst we're doing the knob news... I'll just cram this one in"

[@indecentproposal9473]

"I don't know all the ins & outs.."

[@victoriaduffy6538]

PLAY A RECORD!

[@BoxerBoyPilky01]

Bad time for me to take a sip of my drink

[@antwan.]

Ricky would go on to use "cram it in" years later in 'afterlife' , when Brian Gettings describes what he does for kicks in the church scene to the postman - "I just 'cram' it up there flaccid, and wait for it to go.... haard" one of the funniest scenes ever

[@jenanahulu]

I wish I could see ricky at the end when karl is laughing 😊

[@regista4]

I always assume he was getting his knob or bollocks out to put him off so maybe you don't 😂

[@zarzanator1991]

my only wish: to be able to hear these for the first time every time. i love these guys. like having them talk without me(you) needing to respond.

[@ilikerice5208]

I didn’t listen for about 6 years. The best stuff I remembered. But there’s so many of these I’ve forgotten so many little gold moments

[@mrSam3ooo]

Whyyyy can’t they get back together 😪

[@mAcroFaze]

21:46, the moment he just can't control himself and bursts out laughing!!

[@chrissweeney5354]

I love this episode. The last few seemed to have genuine tension and Karl hating it. They all get on really well here.

[@CanUDigItSuckaaaaa]

Listen to these everyday in work. Thanks for putting them up. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@Rossboe1]

Steves quip ""Last time I banged a boiler it cost me 90 quid"" was one of the greatest lines of the series!

[@AA-hg5fk]

There's no way Steve would cough up £90 for a lady of the night.

[@Zonday88]

We will never know what Ricky was doing, to make Karl laugh.

[@MichaelOrr1984]

No, Karl was laughing so Steve stepped in to let him laugh off the mic and ricky trying not to laugh to make Karl laugh even more.

[@nueee8878]

Just for everyone passing through, picking an episode, this is THE SEX PAMPHLET episode (starting around minute 21:00). Man Moth, I think this would be a better title than "vegetarian". Cheers for the uploads!

You deserve a knighthood. I'm on my third run through them (by the third uploader- presumably they get taken down for copyright reasons) and the others must have missed this episode as this is the first time I've listen to this one! Great surprise and great ep.

[@ung_anthat]

Can't believe they all missed it when doing knob news and Karl said "just cram this one in" 😂

[@shaunmcnally3064]

Love that Karl didn’t even think to mention he was mates with Darren Campbell at school....Olympic gold medalist!

[@Scallion_D]

I can't believe Ricky and Steve didn't even ask who when he mentioned it!

[@omikronweapon]

not to mention he trained him!

[@markgallacher4217]

I love how everytime Karl mentions bizzare magazine as a source Ricky casually mutters... 'sure' it's like an automatic response

[@re20bt]

The pamphlet skit in Ricky’s stand up is the absolute BEST skit he’s ever done!

[@Emil-kg7fq]

Thanks man moth, I've been getting a lot of mileage from these

[@1989stoneroses]

going from left to right, getting battered all over the place 😂😂😂

[@NxDoyle]

10:36 Steve called the woman at the centre of the 'penis in the goulash' story "Sophie Something Something Something Something" because he found her surname too difficult to pronounce. I don't know how many times I've heard this episode in the 15-odd years I've been listening to Gerv/Smerch/Dilk. Dozens. All those years, I just assumed that Steve's four 'somethings' meant that Sophie's surname was way too long and way too difficult to try and pronounce. Today however, I decided to find the story, just to see the surname that Steve thought was too tricky to attempt. Matlala. Sophie Matlala.

[@HaydnG266]

But 3 seconds he later, he does then pronounce it right. It's not the easiest surname and I think he was just rushing to read it

[@oscarsmall6370]

It's not the most simple to read at speed tbf

Hahaha.. Andy I almost died too. For everyone else that wants to see her i did some research. Here she is... www.bbc.co.uk/ouch/writers/victorialucas.shtml

[@dalemcmahon4130]

In the complaint she made, she wrote about subjects that was spoke about just before the bo selecta comment and she quotes Karl as talking about the elephant man and ‘little midget fellas’ haha makes it even more funny

[@jakopars]

Anybody have a link to the complaint?

[@YourFriendlyNeighbour]

the whole segment from 21:20 onwards had me laughing so hard but the problem was i had just finished frying some noodles and was trying to lift a heavy wok with one hand and scoop it into a bowl. i felt so weak and the wok is so hot i though i was going to drop it but i was laughing so hard.

Did that just go out..?

[@deaks98]

25:35 you can hear Karl go ‘WHATS WHAT?’ Under his breath! Not realising Ricky is doing a bit and then he goes! ‘Ooooh’

[@whobootlegs5825]

Karl was never worried about perfection. That's why this show works. The awful Rockbusters clues. The terrible grammar of the Songs of Praise competition. It works cos Ricky slammed it whilst listeners lapped it up and ultimately it came from a genuine, irony-free place (Karl's mind). These shows need time-capsuling or sending to Mars or summat.

[@adammercysystem6450]

Out to the mothy moth... Thanks for this one sire!

[@Sightation]

Karl is LAUGHING!! It’s a miracle!!

[@truely12]

I love how Ricky is clearly just reciting something he remembered reading on the internet about the fridge, he hasn't got a clue. He's just trying to show off.

[@truely12]

+mario luigi yep, that's the one!

[@truely12]

+mario luigi okay, maybe go ahead and listen to it again and how he actually tries to explain about how a fridge works. I wasn't talking about the joke he made.

[@truely12]

+mario luigi found it, it starts roughly on 35 mins! He tries to explain after the joke. But it does sound like just saying 2 sentences he's read on the Internet about it doesn't it? haha

[@truely12]

+mario luigi it's cool ahha, but yeah that one you mentioned is the worst of the lot! I'd just love to hear Ricky and Steve say "I don't know" for a change!!

[@kevinflemming5928]

The constant sniggering is so contagious. Makes me laugh every time. 😅

[@mcharles1814]

The question is, what in God's name was Ricky doing in order to make Karl literally laugh on air for at least 90 seconds.

[@LyingSecret]

Using the old Jonathon Ross trick, whack it out on the desk for all to see. "There's some testicles, there's a penis, so...... do what you want with that".

I'll have to correct myself, he laughs several other times. It can be hard to detect.

[@kraken589]

He laughed in season one a decent amount.
