The Ricky Gervais Guide To... Medicine is an audiobook released by Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant and Karl Pilkington. It was the first audiobook released in the Guide To... series.

New Format

With a new theme tune and a new format, after the disappointment of the NME Radio Show it was apparent that the show needed an update. It was decided that each new audiobook would feature discussion around a specific academic subject. The first, of course, being medicine. Ricky and Steve discuss a specific aspect of medicine and ask Karl his opinion of it, which normally results in non sequitur nonsense.

Track Listing

Release Date Controversy

While the original audiobook was intended to be released on New Year's Eve 2008, it was released a week early on itunes and audible.com, much to the delight of American and European fans. However, Pilki-fans in the UK were unable to get the shows as it had yet to appear on the UK itunes store or audible.co.uk.

Quotes

Karl: "Today's cure is tomorrow's legache."

Ricky: "And this, doctor, is what a swift kick to the bollocks feels like."

Karl: "If your brain was in your foot it would takes ages for you to saying anything."
