I find both Karl and Steve likeable but I don't think I'd enjoy if it was just those two. Ricky serves as a sort of catalyst for what ultimately makes it enjoyable

Sadly, this news happened more than usual in Southeat Asia. The case I read was about a shaved orangutan. The keeper sold her to drunkards and kept her in a dark room so that they couldn't tell. He also told that it was a girl with downs Syndrom to explain her lack of talking.

No, because he was completely right.

The times, well, ARE they changing? It makes me wonder whether things are the same as they were all those years ago...
In all serious, am I the only one here who's endlessly listened to the XFM shows a million times nearly daily for years? It's legimately part of my life. It's unbelievable comfy.
>>63620030
No, he means popular songs that were played on the show a lot.
>>63619980
Uhh, believe it or not, Spotify actually has a playlist of every song played on the show. It's out there somewhere.
>>63620056
I play it everynight as im going to sleep and when im having a bath
>>63620107
YES, exactly. Then you too know the endlessly comfy feeling of putting it on shuffle and letting it play. c:
>>63620056
Listened since around mid 2011 virtually nonstop. It's largely replaced music when I'm travelling, exercising or trying to get to sleep. It helps me through a lot of depressing times.
I've tried to stop before because it's weird to listen to something for so long but there's enough episodes that it doesn't really get old so fuck it. No one needs to know my secret.

Yeah, I have a lot of memories of bad events, depression, illness... absolutely nothing else could cheer me up like the XFM shows... I think that's around when I started listening, too. And it's an odd feeling knowing I'm not the only one. It feels like such a personal thing. And yeah, it's weird because even to this day I'll randomly stumble on an episode I swear I haven't heard and it's like Christmas, especially when it's funny.
>>63620056

I love it when he knows they're really bad and thinks he can get away with it by mumbling it and it just makes Ricky angrier. Reminds me of the Fawlty Towers scene where he forgets the names of a couple he has to introduce to someone so he just mumbles nonsense and of course it doesn't work.

>>63621272
Ricky keeps coming up with roundabout ways to mention things shrinking, like talking about how he's going to wash his jumper but not dry it because it can cause shrinkage. Steve's cracking up and Karl keeps trying to change the subject, and eventually Ricky brings up the gag order.
I just figured it must be related to whatever happened with Adam Ant as it made Karl very uncomfortable.
>>63621366
"It *CAN* cause that sort of..."
>>63621366
>>63621315
I'm pretty sure the shrinkage bit and the Adam Ant bit are from two different episodes; they're not related.

>>63622005
>>63622053
I believe it but I've always assumed the tank was probably a wheeled armoured car or at most a light armoured fighting vehicle of some kind. To civilians anything with a turret is generally described as a tank.
I don't think Karl ever specified if he saw it firsthand or was told of it either which makes distortion of the truth even likelier.

Gervais was GOAT on the XFM show.
His bullying and annoying of Karl was amazing; his shit stirring between Karl and Steve was Machiavelli tier; his 'matter-of-fact' deconstruction of the absurdity of moments they had were great; and his laugh is one of a kind.
They where all equally as good as each other.
>>63622322
Yeah Gervais was hilarious. Sad to see that he has become exactly the sort of celebrity he used to hate, though.

Someone should show this thread to them, it might rekindle their friendship. I wonder what they would think.
>>63622130
Yeah.
I'm not saying Karl's lying (as far as he knows it's true), but I think Karl's brother embellished the story when he told Karl it.
Just like the story his dad told about the train crash costing millions in damage.
