I think he thinks its soft to say hi or hello. Notice he never has said please, or thank you or never talks about his feelings. Hes more Russian than British
Old comment I realise but this is a proper good point. They were already running on fumes at the end of the xfm run, rehashing old gags and anecdotes, not to mention Steve constantly testing the water on his naff stand up bits. The podcasts really lack an organic feel.
That final insult at 9:18 is just so cruel and you can tell it really hurt Steve's feelings. I don't even find that moment funny, it's just painful. Steve is definitely not the nicest guy, especially to Karl, but god damn did Karl go nuclear on him with that insult.
lol! I'd heard from some UK friends that Smerch had done some Barclays ads. Good to know he finally got that lucrative voiceover work he so desperately wanted. It's money for old rope, as he says :)
Steve is so right about Karl though. Karl is constantly having a go at Steve and never goes back at Ricky (who is clearly more degrading towards Karl). I think Steve is right about Karl knowing that Rick has more pull between the two of them and that's why Karl doesn't wanna piss him off. Ricky just sits back and stirs the pot between Steve and Karl too. Lolol
Rodgerwilco91 I think Karl picked up on the fact Steve would always join in with Ricky bashing Karl. Ricky can dish it out but can also take it, Steve can't looool
+DOGGYSTYL32012 i do, i have surround speakers around my room and i lay in the dark and listen to them til i fall asleep, better than sitting out in lounge watching fuckin batchelor with the girlfriend
You have to realise how good the set up from Karl is on the woman on the train station story. He's already told Rick you see, and probably just mentioned it in passing that they were having a conversation about recognising who was on the poster. But when he tells Steve the same story he adds all this mayo to the story to make it sound like the woman were shocked when they saw Steve's picture.
Aww.. I know what you mean. These old xfm shows have been doing the same for me for many years. So happy to read your comment because that is the reason why I uploaded these :)
I remember when I was really young and I first saw the office. I was about 7 and they were playing it on adult swim, I saw the part where Ricky was doing the dance bit and I watched it for a few seconds and thought it was the stupidest thing I'd ever seen. Now I quite like the office, and it's probably one of my favorite shows. Weird how things change.
I had a similar experience, I saw it at a young age and hated it for years since then. Eventually I came across it on Netflix, watched it and loved it. I even watched all of the US version, times do change !!
There have been people who have coped with depression with the old Xfm shows, I even remember the late RandyAnders (R.I.P) signing off his channel and saying that the editing and production of these videos got him through his insomnia for years. So thanks for uploading these you never know the difference they make, as well as the therapeutic influence of the bald Manc twat!
I love these bits where Steve decided to take Karl on - everyone but Steve can immediately see exactly where it's going to end up. Karl just can't lose this - he has nothing to lose since the show already consists of him being made fun of and him shrugging it off, whereas Steve has this big sign above his head that says, 'sensitive about his looks'. What kills me is that he was probably the best looking at the time, and now has ended up pretty handsome. But he doesn't know that, so it's just irrelevant. xD "And then she goes.... oohhohhh..."
Notice at 6:13 when Ricky says "Phoenix Nights is better than the Office", Karl umps in agreement. Hardly surprising, given that Phoenix Nights is basically Karl's childhood in Manchester, haha
Love these videos listen to them again and again keep up the good work orth82, btw did randyandes who had a channel and uploaded loads of old xfm videos pass away???
do they still do the pod casts and if they do can anyone give me the email address to email in as I have a video I want Karl too watch as I he would really enjoy it :)
I like Carl but this guy is a whiner for sure. He is so lucky that Ricky and Steve see potential in him otherwise he'd still be doing tiles full time instead of a radio show and all the other shows he is a part of. So he is a very rich man thanks to them.
PacificRimNZ I agree that he's not interested in fame much but yes he would care because if he didn't he obviously wouldn't be a moron abroad being laughed at and ripped on by his famous pals. So my answer is yes.
It's adorable how Karl always says "alright" instead of hello or hi., and also at the start of his sentences...

yes...i love the way the brits talk

@@elihernandez800 lol is the hello thing real or a theory
Exchanges like these are what separate the XFM shows from the podcasts.

7:51 Ricky: “Really? That’s weird, Karl, thoughts?”
Instantly sees the opportunity to orchestrate a fight
I laughed throughout but when Steve described Karl as looking like a face drawn on a half inflated party balloon I cried real tears x
I keep going back to around 9:57 where Karl shudders as he describes what a woman on the tube said about Steve's picture. It's a scream.
it was an epic insult by the K-man, for sure :)
+orth82 He hates being called the K man
+CMD Parodies what doesn't he hate ?
+Bsa Inc Household work, moaning and Congress tarts.

But let's be honest Steve is so far up his own arse thinking he's smart he deserves what he gets
+m fjdmvdjfn vnfivndfn so is Ricky though.
+m fjdmvdjfn vnfivndfn he's no where near as bad as Ricky...
Gromit Pesley yeah but I bet between Karl and Ricky it's banter both ways. Steve can't take it when Karl gives him shit
Rodgerwilco91 I think Karl picked up on the fact Steve would always join in with Ricky bashing Karl. Ricky can dish it out but can also take it, Steve can't looool
Are u havin' a laugh? IS HE HAVIN' A LAUGH??!?!
Michael Melley It's funny because he's desperate.
Am I the only one who falls asleep listening to XFM or the Ricky Gervais Show? Still to this day!
+ChrisMCR it's the familiarity & the cadence....there's soon many of us who pop this on before a kip
Me too bro. Every night, without fail. I get the shits if I can't find my iPod before I go to bed x
+DOGGYSTYL32012 i do, i have surround speakers around my room and i lay in the dark and listen to them til i fall asleep, better than sitting out in lounge watching fuckin batchelor with the girlfriend
Bro, I've been doing this for months now, chuckling when they say something funny! Plus, Karl's voice is so soothing :D
I go for spells and listen for weeks at a time. I turn on Karl's Diary and zone out.
Steve has the creepiest smile.
jwraft09 I think he would make a perfect Joker.
I think he would make a perfect Ripper
Sex case Steve
Like he’s labouring over a stove having just eaten human flesh.
good lookin bloke that Jonathan Ross? He's a good lookin fella. - play a record.
Steve looks like someone put him on the torture rack for stealing Christmas.
uve made me wanna see a remake of the grinch with Steve having the star role
Whaaaaaaaaaa :D)))
loved ricky plugging his animals dvd
lmao
"arghhhh.............Office.." XD
LOL love Smerch. XD
"sorry.... JOHNEYY DEPP" LOOOOL STEVE IS FUCKING HILARIUS!~
Karl's probably the best looking of the three 😂
RyanKearns9 Have you seen how round his head is?
@@scottjohnevans97 head like a fucking orange
poor steve i just wanna hug 'im
I love that part "I don't like to moan... I'm busy and that" LOL too busy to moan.
Jonathan Ross is good looking?
Alright Ricky, climb out his arse mate.
If you are reading this....play a record.
***** Does it have to be analog?
Only if its vinyl shit.. Slam it on

Am I the only one who thinks Steve isn't actually that bad looking since he grew a beard?
Yeah but his eyes are still creepy af. Cover those and he's aight
PS: Wow your comment is 9 years old. Hope you're alive and well

4:44 nice little Brentism there... Eh?
"I don't like to moan, I'm busy an' that.'
Classic Karl.
that last part was sad

Steve is totally right about the 50p
not really, not for 2 crates of lager
@@sidarthur8706 The lager is beside the point
"Well, she was a woman. I should've known [you didn't know her]."
LOLz...
After karl and warwick held hands warwick rubbed his hand against his knee does he think oranges r disgusting
maybe he thought there was knob juice on them.
Brings a smile to my face after a very hard day. :-)
Steve can't take a joke at all.
I love how Karl justifies the woman being shocked by the poster. It's just what?
I listen to these solely to hear Ricky laugh! lol
Same!
why do i feel im in the dance scene of sixteen candles and u and karl are trying to push steve to the fore front
I love how Karl says Steve's odd looking, as if he's Johnny Depp or something.
Steve is definitely odder than Karl. Hands down
Yeah, but Karl is nice looking. He's just bald. He's not strange looking.
I think Steve used to look odd with no beard, with a beard he looks just very tall in my opinion.
***** Agreed. He looks better with a beard, though I think most men do.
John Watson fan I agree, beards make a lot of men look more masculine and overall better.
Bet that sounded hilarious uncensored 🤣 first time I've ever heard Karl say c**t

hahaha this got so awkward towards the end

"And then she goes.... oohhohhh..."
I was staring at the hands on Karl's shoulders trying to work out who's is who's, then I looked at Steve's grin and now it's creeping me out.
Lol!
I bloody love him. : )
Karl essentially whined himself to stardom. Quite remarkable
That escalated quickly
Notice at 6:13 when Ricky says "Phoenix Nights is better than the Office", Karl umps in agreement. Hardly surprising, given that Phoenix Nights is basically Karl's childhood in Manchester, haha
Love these videos listen to them again and again keep up the good work orth82, btw did randyandes who had a channel and uploaded loads of old xfm videos pass away???
Better than the cartoon
Thanks, Thomas! And no idea what became of that guy, sorry.
sorry johnny depp
oooo hit a nerve at the end Steve was not impressed
Steve is so thin skinned
Have a look at 'unbelievable barclays '.
Real deal.
not besmerched lol xxoo
do they still do the pod casts and if they do can anyone give me the email address to email in as I have a video I want Karl too watch as I he would really enjoy it :)
Yes Johnathan Ross is very cute and his brother
Died laughing
how is Steve the one they call weird looking? Karl is a potato
Dickers died?
Thought Steve was gonna cry at the end there like ffs.
i like onions
Frying them in lots of butter in low heat a long time... yea that’s tasty
Do people really think he looks that weird or ugly? I don't really understand it.
4:44 brent
ant chance all these are a setup?
no. not at all. they cant hold character for 15+years straight without breaking once its really impossible, karl is just that special of a guy.
ImaGinE8341 That was real awkward silence after the tube story, haha.
Is it just me or Steve gets seriously depressed when Karl talk about his looks
Karl almost looks cool in that photo.
I like Carl but this guy is a whiner for sure. He is so lucky that Ricky and Steve see potential in him otherwise he'd still be doing tiles full time instead of a radio show and all the other shows he is a part of. So he is a very rich man thanks to them.
He'd be doing radio mate, he was a radio producer before he met Rick and Steve
***** Do you think he would care? Karl hates fame. Ricky wants Karl to be famous more than he does.
I can't help feeling that Carl would like nothing better than "doing tiles full time".
teetonball1
As long as he had time to take a dog a walk and do his paper round.
PacificRimNZ
I agree that he's not interested in fame much but yes he would care because if he didn't he obviously wouldn't be a moron abroad being laughed at and ripped on by his famous pals. So my answer is yes.
This is the best radio show ever.
Does anyone listen to old Chris Evans clips? No, they don’t.
