Brilliant. Makes you wonder if Karl is truly a buffoon or if he is playing the classic British comedian who plays the dumbest guy in the room but it takes Witt to seem that dumb
Agree! Even Ricky Gervais said that after watching the animation of the Clive 'Warren' Rebecca de Morney film, he really wants to watch the film for real now!
The weird bit is that Merchant acts as if he doesn’t know what it means 😂 kicking above your height is the same as punching above your weight (both common sayings in America).
What an absolute treasure these are. The amount of funny is off the chart and to beyond anything written. Add the brilliant animation - and you've got comedy gold kept on the top top shelf. It's hard to find anything that can still consistently make my laugh out loud to the extreme these to. THANKS to all involved and the post. A wonderful thing I will revisit again and share. Cheers.
“I can’t save you with your glasses off and your knob out. If I ever save you I want you fully clothed with your glasses on.” It’s the fact that the glasses must be on that kills me. Lol
Im reading the comments to see if anyone else noticed that! I’ll be trying to figure out the correct answer all day but I’ll give in and look it up at some point
Wait no I get it now. It does make sense. Because if you ask the devil he would lie and say that the angel would say he’s guarding hell, but if you ask the angel which guard the other is guarding then the angel would tell the truth and say that the devil would lie and say he’s guarding heaven
No he didn't, listen carefully and more importantly, try to imagine what he is saying. He explained it perfectly. Frankly i would mess up the explanation on the first go for sure, he impressed me with how he managed to do it in first try.
"what are those things in Gremlin's called" I assume Ricky finds this funny because he assumes they're called Gremlins but they're actually Mogwais to technically Karl's question wasn't that stupid
@@mikescott8903not to be pedantic(actually exactly that😅) but technically gremlins are the mutated versions of mogwais. Mogwais do not evolve into gremlins but mutate into them.
@@mikescott8903 nope you're not... Mutation is the modification of a gene. The modification of that gene can be both progressive or backward... When the mutation is a progressive modification of the gene that's called evolution(evolving into a advanced state) but most mutation are regressive meaning that the modification of that gene is a return to it's primitive state which is the opposite of advancing or evolving in the case of mogwais mutation into gremlin it's 100% a regressive mutation of the gene so a return to a more primitive genetic state.
@@mikescott8903mogwai is technically a mogwai ...what kind of moron are you? And swinging your tiny micky around about it as well, as if you hadn't just said something do stupid my mind is blowing in the wind. Mogwai is technically a glove on a puppeteers fist. 😂
You’re taking the Mickey, mate. That shrill laughter is like nails on a chalkboard! I wish I could mix his laughter out of these videos, It would be so much more enjoyable.

Would love to see a show of karl living his days.. and Steve and ricky throw spanners into the works 😂 prank calls.. hired people to give him problems.. that would be a funny show .. karl u do help me smile😂
I don't know man, Karl is a sweet dude, with a kind heart, I'm not sure I'd get many laughs off him being pranked and emotionally tortured outside of his workplace. Might be funny for a special tho!
'are you in charge of the brain, or is the brain in charge of you?' --they don't put it like that in neuroscience but that is the constant question, lol. karl is right about things way more often than they give him credit for. he just consistently lacks the ability to give them a cogent explanation for the thing he has sensed that is nevertheless true, rofl.
The Clive Owen idea made an actual appearance in a Black Mirror episode called “Black Museum”. I was so excited and tickled that Karl’s ridiculous idea was made into an actual television episode 😂
You know what’s funny? They actually made a black mirror episode that has to do with Karl’s idea of putting a loved ones brain inside the living persons brain hahahahahah
"TING TONG BING BONG Its tingin its way up the tube..." 2:28:51 My husband heard me saying this and asked where it's from. Lol, how do you even begin that conversation? I really need to introduce him to these. Especially, the animated ones. They are truly a treasure and never get old. I have been watching and listening every night for 2 years straight. I know, I know, Im a newb. Play a record...

Two things right away: It is a very popular idea among writers to just start writing and eventually something good will come out so Rick and Steve seem like idiots making fun of that concept and Karl’s film idea almost sounds like All Of Me from the 80”s with Steve Martin and Lily Tomlin where Steve Martin is Walking around with dead Lily Tomlins character controlling half his thoughts. There are a lot of these where Karl is talking about something that exists and the other two are making fun while seeming completely ignorant to the world around them.
There are a lot of these comments from idiots like you who don't understand that Steve and Ricky are intentionally winding Karl up. Furthermore, just because that film exists doesn't mean it's not a ridiculous idea worthy of mockery.
It literally makes me so mad, Karl usually is saying incredibly creative ideas or rational things just in a funny way, and either because its unconventional or they just think it’s funny, Rick and Steve dogpile on him for it
Agreed 👍 an karl wouldn't work without the combo of rick/steve- the perrfek trio- (don't see that choc bar anymore)- timeless gold this ,xfm should have won more awards at the time but radio didn't know how big these were gona be - 😂
"not my hands either" 😂 👌 That's why he's a genius in my eyes tbh 😂 He always thinks 'outside the box' & says exactly what he thinks (before his brain has 😂)
Wait I think I've come up with a different answer for the riddle. If you ask 1 of them the question 'how many doors are you guarding' and they answer anything other than 1, thats the door to hell as the guard of hell always lies. If the guard says 1, then that door leads to heaven as the guard can only tell the truth
The critical bit Ricky got wrong is that you *don't* know that the hell door is blocked by the lying guard. You don't know which door is guarded by which guard. So yes, you can use your question to determine which guard is which, but then you have no questions left to determine which *door* is which.
the fact that Ricky shut down karl about his predictions of the future when he basically said VR glasses, because Ricky thought the idea was dumb and the worst one he had, yet we already have that today, Karl actually did predict the future.
IMO the very best Karl moments are the ones that absolutely nobody on the planet could predict were coming. Kick a duck up the arse... People who's jobs come with a lot of responsibilities, like Bruce Willis... Monkey whizzes by on a tricycle... A few off the top of my head.
It’s not in the cartoon but on the podcasts, they later clarified that Ricky should have said to assume no prior knowledge. Otherwise, yeah, Karl could have just asked any question for which there’s only one answer that anyone would know.
Yeah the point is that you need to decipher which door is which with only one question, so asking about who name is what would get you no where at all. Also Ricky gave incorrect information that “the liar is guarding hell and the truthful one guards heaven”. Most likely the answer to your question of “is my name Karl?” would be, from either of the guards, “I don’t know.”
He is a certain kind of thinker which is a kind of genius ..definitely makes connections in his brain that most people dont make which i think is genius. But by any measure hes not got a high iq. Which i think just goes to show iq tests are stoopid. Papua new guineans are lowest on iq test and jews highest. A lot of jewish are laywrds bankers mathmaticians but if you put a jew in a jungle hes be dead in a few hours wheras a paua new guinean knows every plant every noise every snake of that jungle but no iq test is made by a papua person. Id say a lot of jewish acedemics involved in creating the iq test. But carl would be kind fugged in a jungle or an acedimic situation.
The conversation at 1:16:00 between Ricky and Steve, when Steve says, "Straight back to hosting game shows.", sounds oddly specific. Especially, when Ricky laughs. I wonder who they were referring to. LOL.
good film idea, Black Mirror actually covers this subject on one episode. Also reminds me an older movie with Steve Martin in it. This film can be interesting as a deep psychological drama. I dont mind to use actors have not been around for 10 years or no stars. Acting is not about fame, it is about acting. I probably not use Morgen Freeman, or the others, cn be any good actors. Same case with Black Mirror. You dont know those actors but it is great drama, good acting good directors. So I believe with a good crew this could be a great film.
At 1:16:02 ... Ricky needs to shut his gob about the pain involved in kidney stones. It is horrible pain. The pain can feel crippling... Making it hard to stand or straighten up.
Love this.. never gets old, sit the phone down and listen and laugh ma head off, no need for the amination (just my opinion) never the less it's comedy gold!
3:26:11 "Did you know that the first Matrix was designed to be a perfect human world? Where none suffered, where everyone would be happy. It was a disaster. No one would accept the program. Entire crops were lost."
I wish ricky recorded the live version and released it. The cartoon is hilarious and I bet it would be even funnier actually seeing them have those conversation 🤣
Yeah you’d know who was telling the truth and lying but you still don’t know who is guarding what door. The original riddle don’t say the truthful one is guarding heaven or vice-versa.
@@DannyBReviews Ahhhhhhh that makes more sense. The way Ricky words it the honest one is always guarding heaven and the liar is always guarding hell which would mean you could ask pretty much any obvious, black and white question
For non UK viewers, Munchies is not a generic term for a snack and not a chip/crisp as shown in the cartoon. Munchies are small square chocolates, with a shortbread base and caramel centre. Edit:- Well I didn't anticipate how many idiot potheads would chime in. You are WRONG. There is no debate, Karl has even said so himself Munchies are the sweet/candy. He is not referring to Monster Munch, He is not referring to being a pothead and wanting food.
@@handlesarefeckinstupid OP is correct when Karl talks about munchies he actually means the chocolate munchies that used to come in a red tube liked shape like rolos but they are cube shaped. Now you can get them in pouches usually around a £1. They’re amazing. But yes munchies can also be a term used when you’re hungry for snacks in general and is usually associated after smoking weed and getting hungry hence the term “I’ve got the munchies”
Karl's movie could make sense if he changed it to the following. Clive and Rebecca plus one more person are scientists experimenting with this brain swopping thing, but so far they haven't had any human volunteers. Then C and R are both in an accident. The left side of her brain is badly damaged but the rest of her is fine. Everything But the left side of C's brain is damaged so he will die. Their scientist collegue, knowing they would agree, then pops C's half brain into her, and then the story works... not that I would watch the peice of crap. :D
There actually was a movie made in 1971 in Czech Republic (fine, Czechoslovakia). Called 'Pane, vy jste vdova!' (Sir, you're a widow!), it's an absurd comedy about botched assassinations and brain swaps... and it's only bloody brilliant. And as with many more things, we Czechs were actually first to do it (at least I hope). I know I'm necroing, I don't care. Do yourself a favor and try to find it with subtitles. If you like intelligent, yet wacky humor, you won't regret it. And so even though Karl is technically second at best to come up with the idea, this concept actually works really well.
2:16:17 my friends and I did this back in about 2000 or so. Stegacondobisaulrusichu. Stegasaurus, condor, bison, warlrus, picachu. I love the giant scorpion though
Karl is a top human being. You can tell all the way through Ricky is intimidated by his honesty. I dont think i could have sat there for 5 mins without punching Gervais in the teetth.
Hes such a nob ed. Ive grown to hate him less i found him so painful at first now they dont seem so bad. I guess you get used to him over time. But hes still a nob.
In my humble opinion, Ricky demonstrates that he is actually very envious of Karl's flair for humour. Karl is *effortlessly* funny, whereas Gervais has to plan and put thought into his comedy. And I remember in one particular episode of the RGS, Karl was absent, and Steve and Ricky were struggling to keep the show 'as funny' without him. It annoys me when Ricky is blatantly bullying him and being awful to him. It reminds me of a guy who used to bully me when I was 13. One minute he is your best buddy, but then will mock you and put you down in front of others. So yeah, Ricky can be a real **** at times.
@@LS-ot6vd totally it still bugs me when Karl says something true and Ricky laughs and also the way when he mocks Karl about something like evolution he then goes on to mumble something about genes blah blah almost incoherent because he actually doesn't know either. But I try to think of it as just a charecter hes playing ⁰
