at 32:31 Steve goes into a charity shop to find some "old records, and things" and pulls out a copy of Bitter Heart by Seona Dancing! That's Ricky's old band from the '80s! Very clever touch there.
These animations are from a show compiled from the old podcasts....i can't tell if you all are serious about not know where these came from....it was on hbo in the states. This was created by Steve and ricky with karl in the mix. And yes of course ricky is a genius as are karl and steve btw
@@passmybongback so first off erm is not a word I hope you are younger than 35. Second the podcasts often repeated xmf material.....the animated show was created based on the success of the podcasts. The podcasts are what got them the exposure to lock down the animated show funding. I listened to the radio show while it happened in the early 2000s. Then I got every podcast when they were available. Third and most importantly your comment disputing me was actually just incorrectly rephrasing what I said
@@ayyjsanders9319 How do you manage to be in a tent in switzerland while cycling round europe? all of those things literally explain themself... get a tent and a bike?
I’m not afraid to admit I resonate with Karl deeply. As simple as he seems, he carries so much wisdom and is worth hearing out. Whether you see it as his wisdom or what you gain, there are many insights to be found.
The animation enhances the comedy by a factor of at least 100. The part with the Chav worms having teeth was possibly the biggest load of pish I've ever heard.
2:37:15 I've only just noticed, when Karl says "Top brass. I overheard someone say that?" It was actually Steve a couple of episodes earlier when they were discussing Karl's brother being in the army. He says it right at the end of the segment 🍊
That ending was oddly touching, with the music playing as they reminisced about times of old together in their little home together. Such a beautiful story of family and friendship
@@IAmRedherrings I think the why, is Ricky. Because, Karl and Steve met up. But, initially Ricky and Steve we're pals. Then Ricky latched onto Karl as his new best pal. Ricky organized the shows together. So, it looks like Ricky dropped them.
@@elleeme9451 Absolute fucking waffle. They all just moved on, it has been spoken about muuuuulitple times, google it. This was over 13 years ago. Keep your speculation to yourself you mong.
4:16:17 is actually very valid from karl, my body shows stress before i can even think it sometimes, chest pains tight chest etc and my mind feels pretty ok, he isn’t all that stupid
I talked to a guy in the comments section on youtube who lived next to Karls parents in Wales. He said that Karls dad acts just like Karl except hes an old man.He told some funny stories about Karl when he was younger
@@rbeck3200tb40 should've asked Karl's dad how he sleeps at night after stealing from elderly people (and by extension the local shopkeeper) on a regular basis. What a crook.
I used to LOVE this show. Bonded and resonated w Karl’s northern simplicity so heavily🤣 I remember never being able to take my eyes off Stephen’s neck animation, dunnit look like a middle finger?? lmao
Karl’s story about Germany is sort of right. A lot of my friends served and Germans will fight with soldiers from America at bars to prove their toughness
I'm still working on it but at this point I can tell you Karl's IQ is either staggeringly low or staggeringly high. There's no way he's in the normal range.
IQ is a cumulative score of several different types of intelligence. In Karl's case, I think he probably has an average IQ on account of some forms of intelligence (reading and comprehension) being staggeringly low while others (lateral thinking, abstract reasoning) are staggeringly high.
I haven't fact checked this information but another person commented that Karl took an IQ test on a different program and scored an 83... I haven't seen it personally but I can certainly see it being the truth.
Karl is right though, Medical science is often motivated with what has the best return on investment, not what can heal the most people or cure the most.
1:18:10 Karl made a good point, even though he disagreed with what the scientists were trying to achieve, he still understands that it’s taken a lot of hard work to create the project and it would be ignorant of him to just to stop it because he don’t like it. Sometimes I think Karl is actually very clued up but he just doesn’t articulate himself correctly because that’s most likely how he is, which makes most of what he says comical or profound with no in between really.
I've heard these a million times by now, but Harry the soliders story ALWAYS gets me 😆 Ricky - "Harry carried you over the threshold an whispered sweet nothings in your ear" Karl - "No he wasn't like that. He just said Get your Nickers off!" I can be on the brink of falling asleep and it has still made me laugh lol
1:49:07 one the times I’m 100% on Ricky and Steve’s side. There are days where I’ve come home from work after a long day and my partner expects me to cook or cook with them even though they had the day off. I don’t want to come home from work to do more work.
@@simonmitchell60yeah right, and Amy Schumer never stole jokes from Dave Attel and others. And epstein hung himself while on suicide watch while the cameras were off and the guards were having a snooze... 😆
I can relate with Karl a lot:') I tried some things as him. Like watching insects, thinking about strange things and try out weird things what you never think of or embarassed to talk about. I think we would be good friends with Karl
I like the pocket tie idea. It's great for small things like change, or dime bags filled with... whatever substance you prefer in your dime bag. Or a balloon, whatever your.. "substance supplier" gives you I guess.
I don't know how Ricky and Stephen aren't getting Karl's point about Italians more lenient nature. Guess Brits aren't much diff than us rushy Americans.
Who's listening in 2024? 😊❤🎉
Yep discovered this literally last week and it’s now my comfort show
Yooooo
For decades now....soundly crazy in ohio
Always
I started late, only 7 years in 😂
Midway through 2023 and I'm still replaying these bad boys ❤
Always brother. Let's keep it up
Mission impossible 7 is now out ahaha
Amen brother.... Amen.
Err-day...💯
KP looks after me!!
2022 and still listening 😭
Same man,literally right now haha.
It’s my therapy
We'll never stop lets be honest
Same bout to rewatch everything lol
Never stop
Let’s all take a moment to be thankful that Ricky introduced Karl to the world.
I think Karl taught me how to laugh; and Ricky ofc😂
I think there are people in Africa that would appreciate blankets more
Mr K Dilkington for PM is the next move
I would sooner listen to the wit of the main two than Karl's blx.

Good eye. Thanks James 👍
not to mention the underwear being pulled out of the charity by Steve....
The person who had the idea to animate this is a genius.
I love 2:19:28 when he slams the window "heavy handed" & the shutter breaks! 😂
It was Gervais
Ricky likely got the idea from hardcore fans who flash animated the old XFM radio shows and submitted them.
These animations are from a show compiled from the old podcasts....i can't tell if you all are serious about not know where these came from....it was on hbo in the states. This was created by Steve and ricky with karl in the mix. And yes of course ricky is a genius as are karl and steve btw

2024 still listening ❤
Ive been watching/ listening to the RG show everyday since 2018
Gets me to sleep nearly every night
Us old'ens have been listening since 2005 and still not bored of it
I've known Karl since 1993 when he was knocking around the racecourse estate with Darren Buckley and Dermot
2023 just discovered these videos. Binge watching with uncontrollable laughter. Thanks Karl Ricky and Steve. ❤
Once you start you never stop haha. Welcome to the club ❤
Listening in my tent in Switzerland, as I cycle around Europe. Play a record.
Cycling in a tent must be hard
learning the route is pretty easy though
You want some sausages ?
Sounds absolutely amazing man kudos fr how does one manage that?
@@ayyjsanders9319 How do you manage to be in a tent in switzerland while cycling round europe? all of those things literally explain themself... get a tent and a bike?
2023 and still damn funny. TY Ricky Steve and karl. This shit just doesnt get old.
Yep.... if you're in the UK check out some of the Opie and Anthony show it's about the only thing that can compete
I've got a mate like Karl, he told me the other day that Mini (the car manufacturer) are bringing out a hearse version.....for midgets.
I’m not afraid to admit I resonate with Karl deeply. As simple as he seems, he carries so much wisdom and is worth hearing out. Whether you see it as his wisdom or what you gain, there are many insights to be found.
Your a simpleton then just like Karl.
Don't talk shite twice
I agree, he's an unfiltered genius, 99% crap but 1% pure gold. Things I'd never think of.
He dosent seem simple he couldn’t be more dim
Could you also eat a nob at night like Carl does?
August 2022! Still bloody listening!!
The animation enhances the comedy by a factor of at least 100. The part with the Chav worms having teeth was possibly the biggest load of pish I've ever heard.
What about blind people? They can’t enjoy the comedy exponent you’re on about. Unfair. Shut it down.
@@joewright9879 They still got the sound effects which I like as well.
This was a missed chance to edit out some of the effing and jeffing -- this is potential Children's BBC material.
@bina nocht they've discussed it themselves in 1 of the xfm shows I heard today. It means to run. Fucking and taking off
@@joewright9879 I read that in Karl's voice
“You can throw a baby out a window and it won’t break its back…”
🤣🤣🤣
2024.. 7 years I've been listening to these various compilations! Can't sleep with out them as background drivell 😊
I just discovered it. Are these actual Karl's opinions? Goddammit if so.
Popping in to give a 2024 salute 🫡
I’m happy that Karl made his money and now is silent. Good on you mate.
"If ya wanna carry anything big buy the scarf version" .... brilliant 😂😂😂
“It’s just a vase, with shit in it”😂
The way Karl is disgusted by the idea of legless people dreaming of being swimmers at 1:15:18 is just utterly satisfying
Don't be stupid! >:(
He is equally disgusted by those with 3 legs that don't swim
@@TheMcPhersonTape dont be a juggler be a footballer, sick of it
So funny😂
Or the guy who fixed watches with his feet. "Crush grapes" 😂😂😂
The animated version of Karl is awesome. Actually all three are.
“curtains are still a-twitching, no one’s a-helping”
I love how Karl goes from "you got to have your critics" to "sick of her" just by Steve and Ricky's taunting.
I have these on dvd but still sat through it all again on here. I feel I shouldn’t be laughing but laugh uncontrollably regardless 👏
My family used to get angry when I watched this at night. I’d wake them up laughing. Now I’m alone. Still makes me laugh!
I still listen to the Xfm and podcast ones. I think i might be broken 😞
I live in Northern Ireland. This is hilarious. Love Karl he's so funny but Ricky's laugh gets me every time😂
3:32:35 He's sort of right; apparently, murals do slow drivers down, so some councils will fund art projects for road safety purposes

I've noticed Ricky laughed almost every time Karl made a good point.
It's like laughing was his way of avoiding defeat.
I think Ricky is amused by the fact that through all the nonsense every know and then an actual credible idea is accidently formed by Karl
@@hubertcumberdale3063 even a stopped clock is right twice a day
Yep
_Mission Impossible 7_ IS actually being made concurrently with _8_ . . . Karl did it again!
Eight is really going to be a twist with Bryans Brian driving Tom Crusies body
Actually really like Karl's film pitch
These vids have helped me a lot when I've been sick or feeling down throughout the years. Timeless!
4:16:17 is actually very valid from karl, my body shows stress before i can even think it sometimes, chest pains tight chest etc and my mind feels pretty ok, he isn’t all that stupid
correlating yourself to karl does not make you or him valid. just proves 2 idiots
I still listen to hours of their podcast at work.. If only my boss knew I was listening to Karl...
Same haha, I love it when im at work and everyone around me is all serious while I'm listening to a story about a hairy Chinese kid
Same hahah have to hide my grins
Are you my doctor? 😮
Karl has more feelings and empathy for a slug before a human being.
Vanthemam. So true self pitying selfish weirdo
Not reallly, just dislikes, family, people and noise?....Me too!
Understandable.
He's closer to them evolutionarily.
He tried to put slugs in room 101 because he was worried about getting a bit of sluggage between his toes when he got up to use the bathroom at night.
if anyone wants a bit of a laugh, change playback speed to 0.5 and pretend the boys have been at the pub all afternoon. Absolutley hilarious
Or speed it up to 1.5x and pretend they’ve been sniffing coke

Thank you so much. I’ve watched this about 30 times since you’ve uploaded it
"Careless Whispers - " "no that's George Michael" lmao

58:31 it actually is true. It happened in the 70s, actually happened twice with 2 women in separate crashes
Suzanne putting the cold ashtray on his belly when he gets stomachache from too many plums!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
the bitterness in steves stabs at Karl. Clearly a bit of jelousy from him there.
I am the same as Karl about socks. I will always wear them if going out but around the house I find them uncomfortable.
@bina nocht socks 🧦 cut off your freedom
Freezing in silence for the Avon lady was a thing in our house too! 😂
Again, thank you so much for saving and uploading these.
Karl’s story about Germany is sort of right. A lot of my friends served and Germans will fight with soldiers from America at bars to prove their toughness
Can't blame 'em after Dresden and Reinwiese lager.

Say what you will about Karl but some of his ideas are bang on.
Velcro boots in the Army is a revolutionary idea.
Until the velcro gets full of mud and it dont stick any more🤣
Or until you need to be quiet. The amount of noise revealing your position would be insane.
@@mikescott8903 they use Velcro on everything anyway what difference would it make
