2. '''Cat'''
====1. [[11 January 2003/Transcript#I Still Didn't Stop Workin|I Still Didn't Stop Workin]] ''(0:00:00)''====
<br>''We used to get through loads of cats 'cos we lived on a main road. Anyway we had this cat that was sick all the time, it kept being sick so me mam shaved it...''
Ricky and Steve introduce what they have lined up and ask Karl what he has.  Karl's had 3 days off this week but still didn't stop working on the show.  He's got [[Rockbusters]], [[Acid I Would Sort You Out With Some Science]], a [[Do We Need 'Em?]] on snails, and another [[Ricktual]].  Steve wants to bring back [[White Van Karl]] for one week only. 
====2. [[11 January 2003/Transcript#Have You Ever Seen a Bald Pet?|Have You Ever Seen a Bald Pet?]] ''(0:03:53)''====
Ricky's found a whistle and plays along to The Smiths track.  Karl's been doing scientific research on the web and found out that you can get wigs for dogs in Tokyo ("it's a stressful city").  The only time he's been confused is when he saw someone putting a ticket on some rubbish in Edinburgh. Karl tells the story of when [[Karl's Mam|his mam]] shaved the cat that used to get sick a lot.  It's weird the first time you see it, like when he met Steve.


====3. [[11 January 2003/Transcript#Hanging Out By Stacks of Office DVDs|Hanging Out By Stacks of Office DVDs]] ''(0:09:03)''====
Steve references a scene in the film ''Notting Hill'' because he heard some people slagging Rick off in a restaurant.  Steve only gets recognised by nerdlingers and men.  In HMV, a cashier told him they've had a lot of ''[[The Office|Office]]'' video returns because people didn't like it.


3. '''Slagging'''
====4. [[11 January 2003/Transcript#Another Big Sell|Another Big Sell]] ''(0:13:34)''====
<br>''I was in an Indian Restaurant the other night and they were slagging you off Rick. Saying 'Oh Ricky Gervais he's just like the character he plays.' And I wanted to go over and have a word, say 'Well, you're partially right'...''
The show is going to be structured in the new year, complete with safety warnings, weather checks and news.  Steve reads off the Rockbusters prizes and Karl reads off the clues but can't remember the answer to the 2nd one.  


====5. [[11 January 2003/Transcript#That Would Confuse Psychologists|That Would Confuse Psychologists]] ''(0:18:14)''====
Karl's anxiously waiting for someone to write in to remind him the answer to his Rockbusters clue.


4. '''Rockbusters'''
====6. [[11 January 2003/Transcript#Talkin of Ghosts an' That|Talkin of Ghosts an' That]] ''(0:18:52)''====
<br>''Karl is still confused. He's waiting, he's biting his fingers, waiting for an e-mail to tell him the answer to the clue he made up but can't get...''
Someone's got the right answer, so Karl's relieved.  Steve has another go at [[White Van Karl]] and this time asks Karl about Cilla Black which sparks Karl's story about a woman on a bike who saw herself as a kid.  Karl has opinions about David Blunkett and how we've always had violence, even back to dinosaurs.


====7. [[11 January 2003/Transcript#I Would Love a Hammock|I Would Love a Hammock]] ''(0:23:52)''====
The boys have lots of nicknames today for [[Richard Anderson]] has written in.  Karl's looking at kitchens for his new place, and ordered a "leather-ish" sofa.  Ricky wants a sofa as comfortable as a bed, and a drip to his mouth and one from his nob to the toilet.  Ricky talks about his dad's bed and Karl talks about how [[Karl's Dad|his dad]] tried to solve the problem of too much furniture and not enough space in their small house in Wales.  Karl can't sleep in the bed his dad sawed and Ricky wants to film a new show called ''The Pilkingtons''.


5. '''Ghosts'''
====8. [[11 January 2003/Transcript#This Week, Snails|This Week, Snails]] ''(0:31:02)'' ====
<br>''Did she stop and talk to herself? Or did she ride on by and think 'That's a bit weird, there's me as an eight year-old. I won't stop I'll be late for work.'''
Ricky starts off with a "proper DJ" link and Karl gives the Rockbusters clues again.  For Do We Need 'Em this week, Karl speaks with a snail expert but manages to teach him that they sleep for 13 years and sort out his job security if they get rid of them.


====9. [[11 January 2003/Transcript#A Little Bit of Science|A Little Bit of Science]] ''(0:37:17)''====
Richard Anderson didn't listen last week because he was in HMV returning the 14 copies of ''The Office'' he got for Christmas. Ricky's got a couple [[That's Rickydiculous]]es for Karl which he gets right.  Steve thinks donkey ride checks should be more stringent.  Karl's got some science things to teach Ricky, including a story about a kid who ran away from home and grew so much hair on his body that he was mistaken for a monkey when he went into a shop. This is considered to be the story that ushered in [[Monkey News]].


6. '''Sofa'''
====10. [[11 January 2003/Transcript#Another Barnstorming Feature|Another Barnstorming Feature]] ''(0:45:10)''====
<br>''...I'd have a drip going in with nutrients, 'cos I can't be bothered to chew now, sort of lager with vitamins, and the one going from my knob down to the toilet...'''
A fella had hiccups for 69 years, there's a dog with a wig, and a mouse's brain can reform after being blended (according to Karl).  Ricky and Steve would like some more verified information from Karl.


====11. [[11 January 2003/Transcript#A Head and Body on a Skateboard|A Head and Body on a Skateboard]] ''(0:49:58)''====
A listener has emailed in with an article to confirm Karl's boy monkey story from this week, and Karl has another freak story about a fella with no arms or legs on a skateboard who shaves using his mouth. 


7. '''Snails'''
====12. [[11 January 2003/Transcript#Second Cleverest in a Troop of Monkeys|Second Cleverest in a Troop of Monkeys]] ''(0:52:59)''====
<br>''I love the fact that that you were trying to get an answer out of him by saying that he would be safe 'cos he could look after jellyfish if he gave the okay to destroy snails!''
Rockbusters clues are given and a listener emails in saying Karl is the true monkey boy. Ricky harasses Karl into squeezing the final Ricktual into the last minute of the show but he doesn't finish it.  [[Song For The Ladies]] to end is Joni Mitchell.
 
 
8. '''Rickydiculous'''
<br>''Girls can't throw, because the part of the brain that allows men to throw, in a girl, is taken up by emotion.''
 
 
9. '''Error'''  
<br>''Do you feel let down a little sometimes by our reactions? What are you expecting us to do? Are you expecting us to look at you open-mouthed in awe?''
 
 
10. '''Freak'''
<br>''Imagine a head, with a very tiny body, on a skateboard, shaving with its tongue. That's what Karl was doing...''
 
 
11. '''Picture'''
<br>''Tell you what - Heat. I'm gonna get a picture of you and put it in the radio section of Heat - 'This is what Karl looks like. ''
