Karl Pilkington on the Pointlessness of Birthdays! | Sunday Brunch 

Manmoth?

@William Moore It's "Steve"!

"I'm not putting it on".

What, as me or as a worm?

Karl: "I learnt some interesting things lately" Ricky: " Yeah, like what, what did you learn about?" Karl: " I watched a documentary about scorpions in the desert" Ricky: " Riiight. Go on then, what did you learn?" Karl: "Well nothing cause it was all in Spanish" 🤣🤣🤣

Exactly this.. he is like a guy you'd meet in the pub, just a completely normal dude that isn't trying to overly sell you his shit, he is just genuinely concerned if people will like what he is doing.

@@jamief6507 I don’t think fake tv presenters are used to such a real guy.

and they laugh at him saying real things thinking hes trying to be funny, its a little sad

Together with Larry David

@@jochem2710 imagine a curb episode with karl playing karl😂 hanging out with leon

Absolute Muppet he’s a legend, who else would do that?

Watch it when you want? 🤣

You put any northerner on telly from being a working man and this is the response you’ll get.

and I think that's exactly why people will buy it hahah

@@robertstraw9881 aightt and only when youre in the right mood, alrightt

I threw it in the bin

still waiting for that letter

This made me howl hahaha

Hahahahahahaha so good

@@seanrooney170 Did you close the bid lin, the lid bin, the bin lid

some of the things he says are very wise but the way he words them and his bluntness is hilarious

he's got flashes of brilliance but mostly he's just a round headed moron. Nonetheless, he's one of the most interesting idiots that humanity has ever produced.

He’s got life sorted out, he knows what he likes and hates and is happy

Simple wisdom.

@@manolotejeda8209 hate responses like yours swear half of karl fans think the blokes actually dumb you can tell hes smarter than your average bloke he actually has the mental capacity to question things in life most people go home and watch eastenders go to work repeat

He’s a genius.

Bang on

@Greig91 Oh God, I hope he grows a moustache. It needs to happen!

haha true

was just watching an old video of his, then saw this and god knows how hes aged so much in the last few years?

A Questionable Username yeah but Karl believes in just letting them make their own mistakes, his kid would probably get ran over or choke on a skittle.

None of this now needed, baby dead!

Styles Bitchley hahaha

Ricky knew that winding Karl up = entertainment, but all the fans love to see Karl actually smiling/laughing/happy. Imagine a wildlife programme where Karl and another presenter go and explore and find cool animals. Karl actually said in one of the radio episodes that he would like to do something like that.

@@jayuppercase3398 Do we need 'em tho?

That's actually a genius idea. Well done.

Maaaaarrs bar bar bar!

I'll be honest, this kinda sold me, I didn't know him, looks like my youtube recomendations are going to be full of this person, so there's that

@@dinecas5002 I'd highly recommend watching the ricky gervais show its on youtube and its honestly hilarious

@@dinecas5002 Start at the beginning. The XFM shows. There's over 100 hours of them.

2:44

He is selling his show and going to great effort toz

Yep theres plenty of talent working on the radio stations back 20 years ago when he was discovered by ricky and steve. Steve used to work with a fella called rufus on his own radio show who was equally as funny in a different way, but just never got the same opportunity

@@josephkeen288sadly many people don’t get the chance

@@greenbanana1001 know that all too well in our own lives no doubt 😂

He’s been like that since he was a kid

Ryan English “Me mom always said I was an old baby. She said I could frown before I could walk.”

@@michaelbroyles2601 lolol. Great quote.

9/1/2

@@michaelbroyles2601 didn't say much just sat there listened..my eyes moved about more than i did

John Doherty Best thing Ricky has ever done

lives*

To be fair, Karl coming into Ricky's life is probably better for him than for us. He got to squeeze his head, inflame his imagination, use his genius musings as inspiration for his comedy shows, and laugh at him for the last 20 years :))

John Doherty and Stephen merchent

The only useful thing Ricky gervaise had done in his life

It's excellent. Genuinely changed my whole perspective on Karl and even the effects of his relationship with Ricky

'Who is Karl Pilkington and why is he allowed on TV? He said "we know too much"... Someone clearly doesn't know enough!' 😅😅😅

only true fans know

But the people who run those musems their just as sneaky poping all sorts of fingers in their pocket 10000000 bits of stuff

🤣😅🤣

Play a record.

who's let him in

Why is this still funny. It was years ago when I listened to the podcast. I feel old

@@fifihey still listening to them most nights on repeat, then repeat again etc

No. You’re not havin anotha sandwich

"HE DIEEDD!!!!!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I pray this happens

Pray his boiler breaks.

Awesome idea. Love that show too 👌

Or strictly

@@arzemagic that would put a smile on my face now that you mention it.

That’s what I’ve been listening too recently. They are brilliant !

I've been falling to sleep listening to the xfm shows for 5 years now lol.

Same here. I have heard every xfm show and podcast probably a hundred times and find it comforting

@david have you started adding "and that" to your daily vocabulary yet ? I cant stop saying it lol

Xfm stuff is out of this world when they play out KP plumbing and his staff get snowed in. The best 3 minutes of my life listening to that

I sometimes eat a Twix, just to prove that I am not old yet.

Jellyfish...next one please :)

I could eat a knob at night

@@bruhd4560 great one. Classic.

@@hedgehog1965uk people who live in glass houses....... Gotta answer the door...

a problem solved is a problem gained

That's because Karl is the smart one. I preferred that show with Tim's Dad in it.

You're right. He is like a 28 year old chinese man

James Dean probably hasn’t had a Twix in years either

He used to have the hair of a Chinaman... Weird innit?

G dog no definitely younger than that you never see a sort of 35 year old one😂

@@USER-G291 That middle ground?

Jamie Reeves Don’t encourage him, he can eat a knob at night!

Me too. Me and Karl are very like minded 😂😂

Would be great. The problem: They both hate travelling to other countries. Making filming together virtually impossible.

That, I would watch.

I think them days are long gone 😔

they fell out. violent fighting

@@arjanpatel4895 when did that happen? Any source or details?

Sounds plausible to be honest

Niandra its true

He can only eat a knob at night though lol🤣🤣

It would be entertaining and imagine him telling ant and dec I'm not eating that rubbish I would rather starve lol

flexin on sea turtles Just Karl and Richard Yee would be best.

@@Ranger1812 whose that?

flexin on sea turtles Producer on An Idiot Abroad and The Moaning of Life, you often hear Karl talk to someone off-screen, calling them "Richard", and that's him. He also co-founded Me + You productions, who made AIA and MoL, and directed and co-wrote Sick Of It with Karl.

I'd love to see Karl on QI

no danny dyer he's a fucking mong

😂

So true

It's actually gotten rounder and bigger..

@@themightyapefish Head like a fucking Cantaloupe.

Head like a big bald fucking orange

Karl and Suzannes parents have to have met by now they've been together for like 25 years

Dynasty Heroes Yeah, to be fair I was quoting a line from maybe 15+ years ago

😁

Even when they're just 16, but looking all of 21..

I know you’re just 16, but looking all over 21.. THATS BECAUSE the Chineeessseeee look oLdErrr.

@@abigailnewall8301 Miss Newall, I like you

Ahh dickers

@@lukenluken Randers

DICKY DOCKY DOO!

He'll come back with his tail between his legs

The dick machine

Nah, that's in the past and none of them need each other anymore

They might not need each other but they sure make for some great content when they come together and it's quality entertainment for us lol

Steve just said in an interview recently that he is friends with Karl and they met in LA. Steve said Karl is lovely etc

yeowart yeah I get the feeling that the main issue is Ricky, in that I think he’s fallen out with Steve and Karl. Steve and Karl probably don’t have any personal issues because i don’t think they were that close in the first place.

@@Paradiselost316 Ricky was a bully, to be honest. It was often very funny, and I would probably have put up with it too if I was getting work from it. But I can definitely understand that once he got offered the chance to do a TV show without Ricky, he would take that opportunity because it would be less stressful. As for Ricky and Steve, I think they probably prefer not having to compromise with another person. Ricky likes to have his own way. And he was probably difficult for Steve to work with at times. I'm speculating, though.
