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 KZread 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.

Whenever Karl’s says, “Alright, Steve, I’m not ‘having’ a go,” absolute gold follows.

love how Karl said 'got ya' at the start when he asked how much it took to wake up a snail. He must've been so pleased with himself.

I’m pretty sure Karl was head of production at XFM, you don’t reach that sort of position unless you’re a very switched on type of person. His talent and comedic ability is obvious from the various bits of production you hear on these shows. He plays the part well but he’s no dummy.

Karl has introduced like 10 different features over the past few episodes.

I love that when they’re dissing the psychic they say that it was a 50/50 chance the gran was dead and that the person sounded in their mid 30s so the odds were high, while completely overlooking the fact that you wouldn’t ask a psychic to contact your living grandmother 😂

Mammoth?

I have no idea why everyone keeps hating on Steve. Steve is usually the one that steps in to Karl's defense, and is usually pretty fair. Sure he has digs at Karl, but certainly no more than Ricky does. And Ricky is WAY more obnoxious in the way he treats Karl. Steve does banter, and when Karl bites back he makes it incredibly personal, because Karl is just petty. And you know it happens off air too, and Ricky is the one that constantly winds Karl up off air. It really surprises me, cos Steve is so funny, and i dont understand the hate. Sometimes Gervais drives me mad with his shouting and immediate dismissal of Karl saying stuff that sometimes makes a lot of sense.
