2 fun facts: 1) there is a clip of Karla brother on a TV show about the unemployed 2) the bird/noises .. I saw the same documentary which featured the Lyre Bird (clip available on KZread) and basically it mates by mimicking sounds of the rainforest. But because of human encroachment they caught it mimicking a car alarm, chain saw, and camera shutter. In typical Karl fashion he didn't listen and made his own reason as to why this bird sounds like a car lol

Because there are an infinite number of numbers, there are an infinite number of different functions you can add to a sine wave to change its timbre even within one mathematical formula. I.e. you can divide some by any number from 0 to infinitely, including fractions But then ontop of that you can multiply an infinite number of ways.

It's true about the horse, they stopped it going in the pub so it had to be served at the window. At the end I think Karl was talking about the Lyre Bird from Australia, it can mimic the sounds of chainsaws, car alarms etc.

The bird that sounds like a car is the lyre bird. It can imitate almost any noise, including the chainsaws that come to screw its environment. it was featured on Q.I.

I always thought Karl was trying to make the point that a finite number of sound wave patterns means some reoccur in nature, but in his classic style he ends up taking about frogs making a noise like a Ford Escort. 🤣

I think what Karl means was that if you take every noise in the world and grouped them up into very similar sounds, each group of sounds would have at least 5 instances of that particular sound in it. So take any sound in the world, e.g. a car engine, Karl is saying you could find at least 4 more occurrences of that sound (or a very similar sound) out in the world somewhere.. But I have no idea where he was going with that, or if he could somehow gleam something interesting from it.

That was a fun one! I've thought about this a lot: When he says "all noises have been used 5 times" I think what he was trying to say is that the range of frequencies our ears are able to pick up are limited, and every noise is somewhere within that range. Maybe that's what he means 🤔 I get the impression he reads lots of science mags and translates what he reads into a way he can understand it 😂 Ricky's exasperation is funny tho!😂

The noises debate. What he means is this, on a daily basis every noise you hear is a familiar one. Very rarely will you hear a noise that you have never heard before

*Mark Pilkington* as seen in *Benefit Busters* series 1 episode 2, who died on the 10th of February 2017.

I think Karl meant that every sound frequency has been heard “at least five times,” like the keys of a piano or colors in the visual spectrum. The problem is instead of a quantifiable factor like “sound frequency,” something we can measure and replicate, he used the ambiguous word “noise” that can mean Ford Escort vroom or Chicken cluck. Also the five times thing is meaningless no matter what he meant lol

Some of the best Karl moments are from there in my opinion. It is only audio however i still think it would be worth seeing your reactions to the episodes in order. Anyway, just a suggestion. Hope you feel better soon :)

Hi Barry! I most definitely will at some point! 🤗

I think I cracked what Karl meant about all sounds being used, it's when he compared it to keys on a piano, I think he meant that every sound that exists has to by default be somewhere on the musical spectrum, for example an animal roaring might be a b flat, and so does every other sound in the world. So there cannot be any new sounds just as there can't be any new musical notes. Is that what you meant Karl? Karl: Yeah 🤣Liar

22:40 Im not a big fan of the Argies (mainly because theyre so brainwashed by their government regarding the falklands and Britain/the British, and their german n*z* past) but them having public holidays doesnt make them lazy, thats such an American attitude drilled into you by big companies. In the uk we get 5.6 weeks (28days) of paid holiday per year minimum. By law. Which can include or not include the eight bank holidays (public holidays) per year we have. (its up to the employer if they want to include the bank holidays in those 28days or not) Four day weeks are often as productive as five day weeks for the company, as the company doesnt actually do four day weeks, just the employees, therefore they're more productive as theyre better rested and not as burnt out. You shouldnt think the way youve been taught is the only way. Many companies here do four days on four days off. Especially in oil companies etc. And they get paid handsomly for it too. 23:08 In the UK we also have limited opening hours on Sundays. 6 hours for large stores. So like 11am-5pm. Smaller convenience stores open as normal though. Before about 1994 basically all shops closed on Sundays. Just corner shops opened for a few hours. Pubs and restaurants and entertainment stuff was/is open though. Its because of christianity. Sunday is meant to be a day of rest. Traditionally here it was spent going to church (doesnt apply anymore) and having a sunday roast, which comes from breaking the christian meat fast from friday (which is why we have fish and chip fridays, fish is alowed) and visiting family. Maybe go to the pictures or do a hobby. Play/watch football etc. In villages and smaller stores , the shop owners going for lunch for a couple of hours is quite normal. And why not. Work isnt the sole reason to live. And even with those limited hours and holidays, we're still a top 6 economy with a relatively generous welfare system. And with a tiny landmass too. So seems to do alright for us. 23:43 Or maybe , government policies and corruption might be reason Argentina is the way it is? The majority of Latin America infact. Chile has a higher unemployment rate than Argentina yet an average income about 60% higher than Argentina. Wasnt long ago Argentina was starting wars to try and distract the people from the terrible job they were doing. If there was a revolution and a European government were installed there then I bet they could turn the country around within 20 years. Resources out their eyeballs down there.

It happens only very occasionally but those segments when the laughter just keeps building with every moment are so epic. I was riding that with you lol and the moment the owl/slug/peacock made a return appearance was the final straw for us both haha. Nothing makes me laugh more than this show and you enhance it perfectly. Soooo much fun and enjoyable to view, thank you so much for that 🤗 Oh and i'm similar to Karl in that when I was a kid I kept speaking to a ghost too while visiting the same county of Cornwall. I also don't remember it but my Mum tells the story about it so it's exactly the same haha. Also, I totally got what he was saying about the noises, he's just simply saying that there's so much noise going on that every possible noise that can possibly be created by soundwaves or however it is created has happened and is happening and therefore no new noises will be heard in the future. Finally, I feel quite proud to say when I'm similar to Karl about something 😅🤪

Haha, love it Daniel!!

From what I understand, Karl means there’s a certain range of human hearing (like notes on a piano) so we associate existing sounds with ones we know already. And the average number of associations is 5. But Karl’s mind reduces it to “Every noise has been used 5 times”

Karl completely misunderstood the noise thing The idea is that there are a limited number of frequencies which humans can hear, therefore over the course of all time, every frequency will have occurred, therefore every possible sound will have occurred. He's thinking that in order for every sound to have occurred that noises get used up and therefore anything new we hear can be compared to a previous noise we've heard.

My guess with Mrs Battersby is that Karl just had a vivid dream he thought was real and told his parents as if it really happened. When my nephew was around 6 he asked if I wanted to see "the pelican" and dragged me upstairs to show me it. I thought he was going to show me a rubbish drawing he did of a pelican. But then he started looking down the side of the bed for a real pelican. Then I realised he must've had a dream that he thought was real. I recall similar experiences as a kid with my own dreams spilling over into reality.

Totally disagree on your "coming to work even though everything's snowed in" take. Because your reasoning was that if Karl could come to work everyone else should. Which *only* makes sense if all the workers live together in Karls place... You don't know how much worse it is snowing where she is compared to Karl, you don't know how much further away she lived compared to Karl, he could live in a walking distance away, you don't know if public transport is going where Karl is but not where she lives etc etc. Great reaction though, hope you'll feel better soon!

Agreed. Anyone who does or has lived in a region like the UK where most of the time there isn't any snow, so that isn't adequately prepared infrastructure-wise to deal with it when it *does* snow, will know that often it's dangerous to even drive at all in it. So some people in more remote areas are "snowed in" literally. Also, one should work to live not live to work IMHO anyway, I feel it's a healthier attitude.

For example if Karl was fed up with Sheila because she is always pulling something, like she tried to pull the same thing in Summer and couldn't get to her car because there were too mamy birds outside. Lol

They had 2 House episodes about that, the other one was where they cut that brain matter bridge between the two and both sides couldn't communicate and his left hand would do stuff that the one that could talk wouldn't understand. Left side is right brain, right side is left brain.

I think Karl heard two different things and created his own theory based on it. First the thing about sounds being frequencies, and how humans hear a finite range of frequencies (not understanding that one frequency doesn't mean one fully produced 'sound' like a bird chirp as sounds are combinations of many frequencies) and secondly he probably saw the Attenborough documentary (he mentions him often) where they show the Lyre bird doing perfect imitations of car alarms and chainsaws.

On noises, I think a way of putting the point in a way that makes sense is we have a limited hearing range and only so many ways of describing noise (eg this new thing makes a noise that sounds like an existing thing), which could be a fun debate on the limits of language... (and he nearly gets there while staying so far away...) Karl, however, is talking like noises are literally keys on a piano, there're a fixed amount, and it's absolute shite 🤣🤣

@@MandyCaneLane No worries. You recognised some home truths in what Karl was saying and needed to vent. It's healthy... also entertaining... and a little educational too.

Mandy towards the end of this vid, someone seems like they was going 'p themselves'...hmm Mandy "E-mama-mama. E-mama-mama, ma" 😋😆😆😆😆😆

28:56 Here begins... the '5 sound' rabbit hole. Good luck!

I've never seen you not bubbly and fun. Do you have other modes? Hope you're feeling super soon.

Yes, I have bitchy mode, (usually once a month) and I hate everything mode, but that one is quite fleeting. Comes and goes in a few hours. Lol 🤪

I have a teal green guitar that looks blue in videos and photos. Waddya gonna do?

Tom Hanks had a particularly round-headed friend called Wilson in the movie Castaway (or even Cast Away).

Lmao!!!

The noise thing: He is thinking of 'sound' as if it were an alphabet (I don't know why, that's where his mind went) as opposed to say like the infinite possible numbers between 0 and 1. So because it's a finite list in his mind, he is assuming that there are more entities & objects in existence so ergo it's inevitable that a 'noise' from that finite list would be used multiple times by different things because there are no other possibilities outside the list. Like as an analogy an orchestra of 36 people with only 15 kinds of instruments available. In case you missed it, Karl never really had an education of significance, so whenever he indulges in intellectual or abstract thought it won't pan out for him. Also I'm not sure, but I think in one of his shows he had an IQ test & he scored around 95 or something, so so don't be too annoyed if you don't understand something he says, it's probably because there's nothing to understand anyway. Bless him.
