Wow, it's amazing going back and listening to these old shows. Karl actually talking about things he enjoys and happy times in his life. He even laughs a few times. He always seemed so depressed in the Guide To's and the tv show. Nice to see the more human side of Karl.
I just laughed for an hour straight.! I love how the only thing the kid from his school put about Karl is that he had a pet Magpie and it flew away when he brought it in to show. Incredible.
I like the fact that at this point in the shows Karl is yet to admit that he was the one who made a hole in the girl's dress. Just says 'someone' did it! Cheeky bastard lol!
I think I've listened to all of the podcasts in the past several months, but I love hearing the compilation of all of the childhood bits together. So funny! Thanks so much for taking the time to put all of these together. Absolutely hilarious!
hahaha - I actually remember that windy day in the '70's - coming home from school and my baby brother was in his buggy, my mum told me to hold onto the lampost and my legs actually lifted off the floor!! my mum struggled with the buggy as that was almost blown into the road !!! 100% true I swear !! lol
I used to listen to XFM show everyday and then start over from the beginning after eventually listening to the last show. There's so many that you can just loop it infinitely. But now I haven't listened to it for almost a year for some reason. Now it's almost like listening to it for the first time. This bliss must be what it's like being senile. :)
Thankyou so much for compiling this. I've listened through the podcasts from xfm up to the present multiple times and Karls childhood stories are amongst the best.
Ricky's laugh always cheers me up, no matter what sort of day I'm having. Can't get enough of Karl's anecdotes. Great job on this one. Keep them coming!
So I was listening to this on headphones, paused it and was startled to hear myself laughing out loud. I was laughing so much at this and for so long I actually FORGOT I was laughing.
Referring to Karl getting into bed and feeling so happy that he's tired and the pillows are cold, I also get really excited about that. You're not alone Karl.
Karl's just a very good Northern comedian who never did stand up. Manchester's full of 'em. What gets me is how Ricky balls his head off at material that is nearly the same as Peter Kay material when he has always been so critical of that style of comedy.
It's funny as hell and Karl has done extremely well out of it. Let's leave it at that? I must admit sometimes it sounds like bullying but I still listen to it every morning!
I love that in the part regarding the family with the horse... Karl starts off by saying "I'm just assuming she stole itm maybe that's wrong of me." to "Yeah she stole it.. I think from some stables." Lmao his line of thought is amazing. He truly believes his own stories! (P.S apologies for paraphrasing... I couldn't be bothered rewinding to quote directly.)
It's so weird to think that I've spent a lot of my childhood in Porthmadog at the same holiday park where he was saying he went. I think during An Idiot Abroad or something he went back to the caravan park as a one off at the end of the episode or something and he went through all the arcades and stuff which I probably at the time of watching that had been there not a few months or year earlier. Small world. Decent place to go as a kid if you weren't rolling in the money.
Crying with laughter when he was talking about how much he used to love sleeping ahahahahaha! 'I haven't slept well since I was about.. 12.' TOO MUCH ahahah
I prefer this to the podcast. The podcast is so well edited, it sometimes feels like its artificial. The normal Karl is so much funnier.
Couldn't agree more! Not a fan of the TV show either, the cartoons ruin it!
Of course it's artificial. The podcast is just old jokes used in the radio show, but edited better to get only the best bits.
Also the swearing is funny because you know he's breaking rules.
jimmy2k4o
Aw you must be a child. Everyone swears, Jr.
ethanike on radio between 1-3 on a saturday afternoon, mostly to stress karl out, everybody doesn't do that!
Can't believe Karl was only 30, he talks like he is 43
My Grandma can confirm that the winds were indeed bad in the 70s.
Is anyone else only able to picture Karl's mam and dad as they way they are drawn on the Ricky Gervais show animations?
Yes.
Karl Pilkingtons laugh has to be one of the rarest things to witness.
86
He laughed in idiot abroad season 2 when he had to jump off a structure . He also laugh in the Ricky grevias show animated season 2 ep 13 .
*****
He laughs multiple times in this video.
A1Gentleman1Said And in "The Moaning Of Life" as well, we see him genuinely happy and chipper quite a bit.
Billy Gray watch sick of it if you haven’t already, laughs for a whole episode😂
Ricky: How old were ya?
Karl: 'bout...13..right
Ricky: Really?
Karl: Probably...
Ricky: Yeah?
Karl: 'bout 10, no, about 10 probably...
Ricky: Yeah ..go on..
Karl: 6.

At 13:10 when he says "or is that the... no it did get run over" gets me every time hahaha
"A trip round Kellogs" is perfect
That part about Karl laughing as he went to sleep makes me smile. It is so honest and you can tell how happy it makes him even talking about it.
As a kid I was blown across the road by a gust of wind (circa 1977,south London).So Karl was right!
Are you by any chance a carrier bag?
"Ages ago..." hahahah why does he always start like that. classic
I just laughed for an hour straight.! I love how the only thing the kid from his school put about Karl is that he had a pet Magpie and it flew away when he brought it in to show. Incredible.
CONGRESS TART XD
***** " He's just shoutin' congress tart.."
xD

smg0is0a0goddess xD
smg0is0a0goddess I was thinking the same thing. In the animated story, he says he put a whole in her dress.
it's possible that the version told in the podcast wasn't true.smg0is0a0goddess
+Kit Palmer or perhaps karl just mis-remembered, like humans do? Jeez
This show is pure comedy GOLD.
27:00 - "Sweeping chimneys then 1 hour of learnin" gets me every time 😂
48:30 KARL LAUGHED xD

I fucking love him, such an accidental genius

Wow; I listened to all of the guide to podcasts and this one hour made me laugh far more than any of them - very good upload thanks a lot.
probably my favourite video on youtube, and it didnt move once
When the winds were bad in the 70's...
Thank you, oh thank you so much for these compilations. You (via Karl) make my life happier.
I told myself I'd go to bed when this hour was up... It's 3:30 AM and I am seriously considering putting on another episode... Goddammit, Karl.
Thank u just sat and listened to it xx
efin and jeffin
+ladedade23 and that
Loving all these compilations nice work mate. Subscribed
Brilliant. I should have listened to XFM when it was on!
Back again all these years later to listen to these comedy geniuses.
my favorite trio!!
the head fella came knockin on the door!
God?
hahahahahahahahahahaha
These XFM shows are timeless, so much quality content. Thanks for uploading btw!
They really are , 9 years ago you posted this hahah i was 14 years old
@@VR46314 Oof, I was just 19 and absolutely nothing's changed haha
@@seanpaul93 great to hear , all the best mate 👍🏼
God bless this channel. It's fantastic.
This has to be one of the funniest things I've ever had the privilege to listen too!
Thankyou so much for compiling this. I've listened through the podcasts from xfm up to the present multiple times and Karls childhood stories are amongst the best.
Binks you're brilliant for this
Ricky's laugh always cheers me up, no matter what sort of day I'm having. Can't get enough of Karl's anecdotes. Great job on this one. Keep them coming!
thanks for this made my day
Nice compilation!
So I was listening to this on headphones, paused it and was startled to hear myself laughing out loud. I was laughing so much at this and for so long I actually FORGOT I was laughing.
I laughed myself to sleep with this too aha ;) nowadays I can't sleep without these guys :)
Thanks very much for uploading these, Binks, you fucking hero.
Best Pilkers compilation on RUclips!
"outside the salon from round the corner?" Steve is hilarious
Binks you are a fucking legend
Referring to Karl getting into bed and feeling so happy that he's tired and the pillows are cold, I also get really excited about that. You're not alone Karl.
I love how Karl still remembers all these things.
One hour of learnin!
Karl's just a very good Northern comedian who never did stand up. Manchester's full of 'em. What gets me is how Ricky balls his head off at material that is nearly the same as Peter Kay material when he has always been so critical of that style of comedy.
OMG! I've listened to these shows countless times and I NEVER caught that before :)
Tee hee!!
First I've laughed properly for a while Karl mate I love you dearly
Love it
Pure comedy gold.
thanks
Proper crying with laughter.......... just brilliant
It's funny as hell and Karl has done extremely well out of it. Let's leave it at that? I must admit sometimes it sounds like bullying but I still listen to it every morning!
Listen to Karl vs Steve and you’ll see how Karl bullied Steve.
"black beauty was on" LOL!
So, so true. I've listened to the podcast on my iPod while in bed even!
i love how steve says "don't take the mic out of karls hair that's a bit harsh" because he knows that karl will destroy him later lol
Ricky's laugh at 24:16. Just cracks me up every time :)
I love that in the part regarding the family with the horse... Karl starts off by saying "I'm just assuming she stole itm maybe that's wrong of me." to "Yeah she stole it.. I think from some stables."
Lmao his line of thought is amazing. He truly believes his own stories!
(P.S apologies for paraphrasing... I couldn't be bothered rewinding to quote directly.)

Karl never has any idea what age he was in any of his memories haha
1 hour and 9 minutes and 20 seconds well spent sir.
I look so crazy when I'm laughing on the bus the the podcasts :')
Karl is actually addictive :)
Crying with laughter when he was talking about how much he used to love sleeping ahahahahaha! 'I haven't slept well since I was about.. 12.' TOO MUCH ahahah
i laughed myself to sleep
'Fill out a check, pay a bill and er I think I had a trip round Kellogs.'
I couldn't decide wether to revise for my test or watch Karl, Ricky and Steve videos on youtube..... I think I made the right decision :-)
Steves reactions to Karl's stuff makes it so much funnier as well
I started this video thinking: 'I'm just going to listen to a few minutes of this'. I ended up listening to it for the entire hour.
his childhood sounds so incredible, mine was nowhere near as crazy as this.
I never get tired of life according to Karl!
2001 I hadn't a clue who Ricky was. Love hearing this after the fact. :)
Just amazinf
When the winds were bad in he 70's. The fuck. Lol
"This is great this, I'm going to sleep" hahahahaha xD
fuck the world this shit makes me laugh my head off
CONGRESS TART!!!
From Series 1, 2nd March 2002
Where is Hugh Fays? I need some potato's and bread.
I thought it was Uphase lol
Love the horse story
Karl: “so I was walking along this estate”
Ricky: *w h e e z e*
lol thank you uploader, just wondering, could you not find a more recent picture of these 2? :D
Thought i had heard every episode but ive never heard the friends reunited one. Can anyone tell me what series and episode it is?
An incredible childhood
I am. This was back in 2010/11 when they had long since gone off the air.
no matter what happens, we’ll all always end up back here
BEST HOUR OF MI LIFE!!!! xD
the photo is one one of the publicity shots they did for this original radio show.
this is really good to do work to
Am I the only one that folds over when Gervais creases himself?
Ram pack "eurgh" gets me everytime
LOL A trip round Kellogs.
My favorite part is when Karl almost starts laughing, he never does that nowadays hes too pro.
This is 10 years old jesus
