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 RUclips 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.
I just came from a XFM video that had, no-bullshit, 28 adds. Admittedly the video was about 4 hours long but 28 fucking adds? That's pure greed, all they did was upload someone elses content.
Happy new year folks. Another year of cycling through the xfm series, and then the ricky Gervais show,then the guides. So I'll catch you guys again at some point when I listen to this one again

wow, I thought *I* was obsessed by just doing *this* :P just kidding, glad you appreciate it. I *really* don't want to rain on your parade, but editing music back in is probably a big risk for getting them taken down for copyright infringement. :( I warn everyone against uploading episodes with music in, at least to RUclips, we don't want this stuff blacklisted en masse. You're 'free' to do what you want on your own pc though, obviously ;) All you'd need then is one of them little Rainman-fellas or Forrest-Gumps that remembers all the ads and you're laughing :P
45:10 - Steve thinks he's in here, offers to help the woman 50:40 - Steve realises he needs to check if the woman's already got a child, which could indicate a partner 51:02 - Now that he knows the woman has a baby, Steve loses interest and wants to stop playing 53:08 - Steve realises that she might have a baby but not a husband or partner, so tries to find out Oh, Steve
I love when Karl is talking about Johnno he says "What I mean is he does his own shopping", I allways think it's some saying or has another meaning but he actually means he does his own shopping
Crom haha I thought that exact thing about 5 seconds before reading these comments. I also love the ones where ricky is just casually like "P.I.M.P, 50 cent. Ricky gervais..."
ShoeLube most of these songs were probably forced on them by XFM. i found an xfm compilation album from 2002 and it has all this stuff on there. Black rebel motorcycle club, turin brakes etc. All the older stuff was probably chosen by Ricky and Steve tho
I must do a loop every 4 to 6 months...cause l see a comment of mine from time to time 4, 6, 8 or 12 months ago....even 2 years....and l think l listened way before that too.
I love how at 12:23 Steve says "Let's... Let's uh.... Yeah Rick should get some of that" all nervously to take the attention off of him for the eyes popping out comment LMFAO
Louie Cafarella in one of the podcasts Ricky says that since Karl isn’t working he has a lot of time on his hands and has more time to focus on his weird thoughts. I kinda buy into that because he seems weirder by the time of the podcasts. In season 1 of the xfm show he actually seems genuinely happy.
yess about Ricky not talking properly that's something I've noticed before lol I watch one of your video every night to fall asleep thank you for loading these
I thought Karl was talking about Georges Seurat Sunday painting, I finally googled Lowry after all these years and still Karl has made me laugh perfectly. A comedian god.
It must be hard to pick the titles for these, there's so much choice: - special frottage - I had some beans on toast - bit of a slippery dish - yer hands need to come off - It's just the right amount
Ricky - “Right we’re going to toss a coin in my head to see who goes first. Sara, ladies first you pick. Heads or tail?” Sara - “Tails” Ricky - “No” Gold😂 46:00
Think i've listened to these shows for about 10 times, but it's the first time i realise Gervais unintentionally 'helps' Steve in getting the right answer, by saying the word 'for' (thinking out loud) EXACTLY after Steve said 'devil'. In any kind of guessing game/brainstorming/creative process, such an association of words works wonders :) and you can see Steve gets it immediately.
11:13 Ricky mentions about being close to libel, which is funny because Jonno would tweet about this episode in 2013, saying that Ricky, Karl, and Steve did Libel him lol
They should do the show again, film it like Howard Stern show, this is their career, they need to make this stupid tinpot radio show for ever, it's unlike anything we've ever heard, it's fucking hilarious !!! Please do the show again !!!
I love the fact that Karl can’t even articulate the tense of his clue and is getting angry. “Why did he take him to the doctor”does not lead to the answer ‘sympathy for the devil’
I think he takes it pretty well considering how freakishly looking he was at this point. Pre 2010’s, Steve Merchant did look like an odd character. Ricky just loves the fact that Karl doesn’t mind pointing it out, it’s what makes the interaction more hilarious.
SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL!! Get me the time machine stat! I never get pop culture things!! Lol - Me older than 30 in 2022 wanting to win at trivia for once🤣
The amount of unnecessary, irrelevant bollocks in Karl's song stories is ridiculous! 😂 "see ya tomorrow, I'll be out again for a drink, see ya then, 7:30 ye" hahah! Love how he tries to defend it by saying he sees them like Columbo episodes, and that the murder happens for 3 minutes at the end, but the rest of the episode is filler....has he ever seen Columbo? There isn't a single episode where the murder doesn't happen at the start, and we see it! Columbo as a show isn't a 'whodunnit', but it's about us watching the Lieutenant work it all out!
You're not wrong Kevin. I really enjoyed the Office, Extras didn't wow me and Life's Too Short was awful. If I had to be on a desert island I would definitely pick these over anything else they have made. Would have Karl's books too.
Steve absolutely fucking loves bullying Rick Waller, he sees Rick as the kids that bullied him in school and you can hear the genuine joy in his voice when hes slagging him.

Ooo the rest of this run around has a fun little bonus. Man Moth, is the shit. Lots of love, us all.
😊
Legend
Don’t work Mondays like Karl…
What an absolute fucking Godsend you are, Man Moth. Love you too.
There's some uploaders who pack ad breaks into these episodes to make money. Thanks for giving it to us straight manmoth!

King Animal Advertising is fucking disgusting. x
id tolerate 28 ads to hear Karls 'Alright', steves 'sure, sure, sure . . .' and rickys laugh
are there really bastards that do that?
give it to me straight, like a pear cider made from 100% pears
The Man, The Moth, The Legend.
Rick Waller is 38 this year.
Not long now.
39 now.
Almost.
@@pbradics3670 That fat fucker is proving me wrong one day at a time.
Also 10/10 for the Yes Minister reference.
SAVAGE
Feel sorry for Waller
Rick waller is officially dead.
Happy new year folks. Another year of cycling through the xfm series, and then the ricky Gervais show,then the guides. So I'll catch you guys again at some point when I listen to this one again

Oh man we can edit songs back into episodes and it'll feel like the real thing! I'm just obsessed enough to consider doing that. Good work!
wow, I thought *I* was obsessed by just doing *this* :P just kidding, glad you appreciate it.
I *really* don't want to rain on your parade, but editing music back in is probably a big risk for getting them taken down for copyright infringement. :( I warn everyone against uploading episodes with music in, at least to RUclips, we don't want this stuff blacklisted en masse.

+TheOssumPawesome I did this and made a best of, but it's pretty shady stuff

+Lewis Cranston can you put it on sound cloud or something for us to try.
45:10 - Steve thinks he's in here, offers to help the woman
50:40 - Steve realises he needs to check if the woman's already got a child, which could indicate a partner
51:02 - Now that he knows the woman has a baby, Steve loses interest and wants to stop playing
53:08 - Steve realises that she might have a baby but not a husband or partner, so tries to find out
Oh, Steve
"..just had a look at your salamander."
Favourite line of these shows in front of, "that man off Forrest Gump, he was a bit of a nutter."
Haha, yeah; "that man off Forrest Gump."
Who, Forrest Gump? x
+BigJamook
Reminds me of "what were those things in gremlins called?"
This might be the best episode ever 😂 it’s an absolute shambles
And the others aren't? 😂
I love Karl's little noise he makes at 49:48 still makes me laugh all these years later after sooo many listens
Thank you so much
Isn't that Sarah?
@@paddaawehno
'hmmmmm'
A million thanks for putting all these shows on you tube, i have listened to all these shows many times and still love them cheers👍
I love KP's appreciation of Lowry, but SM's quip, "you were looking out the window" was very funny.
I love industrial England scenes, so this Lowry stuff is perfect. Thanks again, Mr. Pilkington! And Man Moth!
I love when Karl is talking about Johnno he says "What I mean is he does his own shopping", I allways think it's some saying or has another meaning but he actually means he does his own shopping
Arran Bradstock this made me laugh way more than it should have
I started doing my own shopping at 23 - am I prematurely aged?
They wouldn’t ever have dreamed or even cared that soooo many years later there’s a community of people loving and sharing these shows.
How many shows did they start with that Feeder song? So far, it's pretty much been every one of the second series.
ShoeLube i kept thinking i was listening to the same episode!
I know, they can't get enough of Feeder.
Crom haha I thought that exact thing about 5 seconds before reading these comments. I also love the ones where ricky is just casually like "P.I.M.P, 50 cent. Ricky gervais..."
Agreed!
ShoeLube most of these songs were probably forced on them by XFM. i found an xfm compilation album from 2002 and it has all this stuff on there. Black rebel motorcycle club, turin brakes etc. All the older stuff was probably chosen by Ricky and Steve tho
"That body's never done a somersault in it's life."
"What do you mean, IF this is rubbish"!!! -Merchant ahahahaha
heyyyyyy as Steve would say. I'm back around again. I hope I'm not alone in doing these loops
I must do a loop every 4 to 6 months...cause l see a comment of mine from time to time 4, 6, 8 or 12 months ago....even 2 years....and l think l listened way before that too.
I can't count how many times now but I have been looping round for 2 years.
"I knew it wouldn't take a while, to come back around!"
Here we are again aha
Been looping since somewhere around 2012. Don’t know how I survived before
These boys are my traveling companions
Travelling, bedtime, general rambling about..always got the boys close by.
I love these. on loop for the twentieth time for all these, the guide to's, podcasts and specials.
should just be called 'fats waller'
I love how at 12:23 Steve says "Let's... Let's uh.... Yeah Rick should get some of that" all nervously to take the attention off of him for the eyes popping out comment LMFAO

"You're looking alright but your hands need to come off"
I thought Karl was talking about Georges Seurat Sunday painting, I finally googled Lowry after all these years and still Karl has made me laugh perfectly. A comedian god.
Lowry was class, in fairness.
Thank you for your input. Appreciated.
Proud to say I immediately got the Sympathy for the Devil part lol
"Are you the woman?" ...you can just hear Karl saying that hahaah
A slippery dish
"...disabled people walking about"
"That's not real then"
😂
Still here man moth. Thank you again! :)
51:23 SORTED 😂
best
Haha I sent "sorted" as a text one time, with the intention of it being read as Karl says it here.
@@capnhawkins lol I've said this and sent texts with it for years. Me and Karl have something in common.
It must be hard to pick the titles for these, there's so much choice:
- special frottage
- I had some beans on toast
- bit of a slippery dish
- yer hands need to come off
- It's just the right amount
Did Steve's true love get crushed to death having an affair with Rick Waller or something?
@smalla weyhey11 sounds like a line from Shakespeare or somet
Steve's true love got off with Martin Wells because he was wearing his trousers around his head
@@WOOOPdoctorFROGhere was he dancing in his underpants
He was bullied by a big fat kid when he was at school..
Man moth, thank you! really appreciate it
It blows my mind that karl is 29 in this episode. It seems like he should either be 40 or 14....
Mind of 14, body of 40.
Is he asian?
@@noddy3007 more specifically Chinese
yes its bizaree thinking hes the same age as me here hahaha ridiculous
He didn't look 28 last week
Might not be a popular opinion but I like Steve just as much as Ricky and Karl
Different people for different,, stories 😂
Ricky - “Right we’re going to toss a coin in my head to see who goes first. Sara, ladies first you pick. Heads or tail?”
Sara - “Tails”
Ricky - “No”
Gold😂 46:00
The feet for hands conversation had me belly laughing. I love these 3 blokes
Rick Waller. A legend in the XFM community.
Steve’s ultimate nemesis.
I would love Waller’s take on this.
Think i've listened to these shows for about 10 times, but it's the first time i realise Gervais unintentionally 'helps' Steve in getting the right answer, by saying the word 'for' (thinking out loud) EXACTLY after Steve said 'devil'. In any kind of guessing game/brainstorming/creative process, such an association of words works wonders :) and you can see Steve gets it immediately.
is it just me or does rickys guess "savior...devil...forlater" make u burst out laughing
My fourth or fifth time round? I left it a good 6-9months between my last listen 👍🏻
It's alright if you take a long break like that...we forget most of it don't we? Theres a shitload of material.
I lost count. Been on loop for 2 years. It is the only thing that gets me through the work day.
I don't think I could go a week without this twollop
Been a couple of years for me. Never gets old though!
Back again
17:14 "I'd love to work under you"
I was waiting for Ricky and Steve to make a joke there.
Still waiting for a hidden camera show in Karl's house
Boiler's still knackered! ;D
It is going to happen, he's got some grouting to do first.
Just don't let his head get near a fruit bowl.
I would for real watch ‘The Pilkingtons’!
11:13 Ricky mentions about being close to libel, which is funny because Jonno would tweet about this episode in 2013, saying that Ricky, Karl, and Steve did Libel him lol
Running into work with four feet made me laugh til my heart hurt.
They should do the show again, film it like Howard Stern show, this is their career, they need to make this stupid tinpot radio show for ever, it's unlike anything we've ever heard, it's fucking hilarious !!! Please do the show again !!!
Jason Eaton I think they should do one when they're all above 70 just grumbling and reminiscing
😄😄😄👍🏼
I actually think Sympathy for the Devil was a very good clue/answer. Ricky is just annoyed that he didn't win
Groin Strain Ricky only complains when he does not get it
i always thought it’s more the point that the first 99% of the rambling story is completely irrelevant
To be fair the whole stuff about the grid is kinda irrelevant, but that's part of Karl's charm
2025 and here I am, things will never change.
"Barbecue to Doctor" hahaha
Sorry for taking ages to upload more, my broadband has been a shit but as soon as it's back up I will get back on the case with the rest.
Man Moth e
Thanks for these. They keep me smiling.
when you read, there is a man, ten feet under ground pulling women through a chube, you have to sit down and ask yourself some very serious questions.
great honor.
From the Midlands!
I say toob
29:50 crazy that I’m currently working in Mansfield listening to this show 22 years later
Karl thinking that someone in their mid 30s is old is truly incredible. He talks like he's old himself even when he's 30 lmao
I would love to see Ricky and Karl playing football
God yes
Haha, definitely. Although I give it about 30 seconds before Ricky tackles Karl to the ground and tries to teabag him or something.
I love the fact that Karl can’t even articulate the tense of his clue and is getting angry.
“Why did he take him to the doctor”does not lead to the answer ‘sympathy for the devil’
If you disregard the first minute of the clue, it’s actually brilliant.
It’s all there!
A stick man with eyes on stalks!
“That’s not real then.” Low key funniest line of the whole series.
K - "A bit of a slipperey dish"
The guy with the mini on his head was called John evans, lived round the corner from me when I was a kid in a little town called heanor, local legend
2025 and this still slaps
Steves laugh in this haha class
Devil in a Grid by INXS!
49:50 "What do you mean 'If this is rubbish'??" 😂
"What's that in the background?"
"It's Rick Waller, catching up!"
Steve can always dish but never take. As soon as someone comments on *his* body, he's instantly offended LOL
I think he takes it pretty well considering how freakishly looking he was at this point. Pre 2010’s, Steve Merchant did look like an odd character. Ricky just loves the fact that Karl doesn’t mind pointing it out, it’s what makes the interaction more hilarious.
Who’s back here after they were taken of Spotify?
12:05 Top ten laugh from Ricky after Karl says the title phrase
35:02

(er) When I said

“the stumps.”

*yep.*
I think, secretly, he decided on the feet.
SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL!! Get me the time machine stat! I never get pop culture things!!
Lol - Me older than 30 in 2022 wanting to win at trivia for once🤣
XFM secretly owned by Feeder.
"that's a lot innit.....for a human" 😂
That woman's 3 month old baby is 18 going on 19 now.
Weird innit.
good jesus hahahaha hard to hold a slippery dish haahahahahahahaa
It genuinely is a shock Rik Waller is still alive. Incredible that his organs have managed to cope for that long.
Thanks man moth
Rik Waller's Gums. The stuff of nightmares.
Rick is still alive at 41
"are you wearing a nappy?"
"yeah... i can't wear tuxedos"
Anymore? Thanks for posting!
Love to hear Karl sighing when he's fed up and this episode is packed with it
It's hilarious that Steve of all people makes fun of how others look 😂.
All ricks jokes are something Karl said
'take that down, get the salamander out and jus pop those back in your trousers'
38:50 Karl must have had a plate, some cutlery and a small pan to warm up the beans in.
Surely it wouldn’t take 25 minutes to wash them up?? 🥣🍴
16:00 Crazy how Steve predicted exactly what is happenning right now, but instead of sumo wrestlers we have posters of plus size models.. :D
One observation - why would a demon be suffering with burns? Surely they're built to withstand extreme heat, being hell beings and all?
the core of hell is frozen in dante's divine comedy
Don't forget, it's all in your head
He's using his fables!
48:13 Karls right, its called a grid
I got Sympathy for the Devil in about 1 min It really wasn't that hard!
One of the few "cryptic" clues I actually got.
Yes same too be honest but most off them were nonsense lol
I know righht!
Had a look at your salamander
Is that a euphemism?
Lol they should've done this head to head with callers more often than they did.
Lock down sanity, Thanks Man Moth
The amount of unnecessary, irrelevant bollocks in Karl's song stories is ridiculous! 😂 "see ya tomorrow, I'll be out again for a drink, see ya then, 7:30 ye" hahah! Love how he tries to defend it by saying he sees them like Columbo episodes, and that the murder happens for 3 minutes at the end, but the rest of the episode is filler....has he ever seen Columbo?

"Your TV show's so good, why is your radio so..."
how to feel exactly the opposite way about it I do
You're not wrong Kevin. I really enjoyed the Office, Extras didn't wow me and Life's Too Short was awful. If I had to be on a desert island I would definitely pick these over anything else they have made. Would have Karl's books too.
He's made all sorts of TV appearances, but this is the one thing he's done everyone has come to appreciate.
Steve absolutely fucking loves bullying Rick Waller, he sees Rick as the kids that bullied him in school and you can hear the genuine joy in his voice when hes slagging him.
Yeah, he's got a platform now where noone can get to him and tbf if Ricky wasn't there he wouldn't do it either.
14:23 hear the whispering lol
