====1. [[10 May 2003/Transcript#We Didn't Get a Sausage|We Didn't Get a Sausage (0:00:00)'' ]]====
Ricky starts out with a rant about how they didn't win a thing in the [[Sony Awards]].  Xfm is beneath Ricky and he wants to know who was on the panel.  A montage of show clips is played.  Ricky thinks there must be something different about their radio show than ''[[The Office]]'' and wants to have a think about what it is.


1. '''Disappointment'''
====2. [[10 May 2003/Transcript#Better Luck Next Year|Better Luck Next Year (0:03:35)'' ]]====
<br>''his show was deemed not worthy of anything. Not a look in. The panel looked at it and said 'No, definately not.' It didn't get a vote. That annoyed me on so many levels...''
Ricky and Steve win awards for ''The Office'' but Ricky, Steve and Karl win nothing for the radio show. Karl made sure mostly Ricky and Steve were on the compilation so they can't blame him. Ricky thinks it's a slap in the face. Every clip was a funny phone call. Have someone on the panel phone up and explain. [[Richard Anderson]] has emailed in his condolences and groups Steve in with their comedy characters. Should they give up or try harder?  Ricky wants to give a month's notice but Karl says they need to stay longer.


====3. [[10 May 2003/Transcript#I Hope Sony are Happy|I Hope Sony are Happy (00:08:24)'' ]]====
People are already turning against Karl.  Karl won a silver for doing his proper job - who's the weak link then?  [[What Price Karl|How much would it cost]] Ricky and Steve to pay Karl to have a shower with another bloke?  This started off with how much it would cost for Karl to rub Dale Winton's neck.  Would he give Ricky a foot massage?  For 20 quid a foot, he'll take off his shoes and socks.  More chat about Karl in the shower but it must be filmed.


2. '''Indignation'''
====4. [[10 May 2003/Transcript#Just Like Workin in a Shoe Shop|Just Like Workin in a Shoe Shop (0:14:32)'' ]]====
<br>''I actually think it's a slap in the face. I want to know who the panel was, I don't know what Sony are thinking, just handing it out to the same old people - every clip they played was a funny phone call...''
Chris from Coldplay is in the studio.  Karl doesn't want to take off Ricky's socks but relents because he's so annoyed. They make Karl say Ricky has nice ankles and Ricky doesn't like it anymore.  [[Suzanne]] reminded Karl about when they bought their first flat near Manchester and Karl bought a bed without a mattress and got one off from the back of [[Karl's Dad|his dad]]'s.  Would Karl swap pants with Steve for 50 quid? 


====5. [[10 May 2003/Transcript#I Thought We Weren't Doing This Anymore|I Thought We Weren't Doing This Anymore (0:21:46)'' ]]====
[[Rockbusters]] clues, and Ricky and Steve are dejected.  Karl never had a bag in school.   


3. '''Bargaining'''
====6. [[10 May 2003/Transcript#Ear Plugs and Matching Tie|Ear Plugs and Matching Tie (0:23:58)'' ]]====
<br>''We had a meeting yesterday, we thought we'd better plan it a bit; we're gonna offer Karl money to do stuff. That's the quality of the ideas!''
The best things in the show happen when the record is on.  During Radiohead, Ricky made Karl a new uniform of toilet roll.  The cartoon Ricky made of Karl went for £350. Ricky's got an idea: film behind-the-scenes on the show and call it "X-Men 3".  Steve feels justified in his criticism of Ricky and Karl's ideas.  The public are not interested in Karl.


====7. [[10 May 2003/Transcript#Xfm Biros|Xfm Biros (0:29:00)'']]====
Fifteen thousand women are walking through London in their bras, and Steve's no longer at a loose end.  Ricky's going to play a song for a listener in attempts to be interactive.  Chris from Coldplay is still in the studio.  A listener's brother met the man who posed for a nudie pen in Hong Kong in the '70s.  Would Karl pose for an Xfm pen?  The embarrassment of being caught masturbating to one of those pens, or looking into a mirror.  Karl hates being nude.  Rockbusters prizes including ''Wild Weather'' and an album signed by Fatboy Slim.


4. '''Capitulation'''
====8. [[10 May 2003/Transcript#His Name Amused Me|His Name Amused Me (0:34:52)'' ]]====
<br>''Why won't you do it? It's ridiculous; you won't have a shower, you won't take my shoes and socks off, you won't do anything! You won't give Dale Winton a rubdown, what will you do?!''
Ricky recounts what they've done so far in the show, and Steve selects [[Gerald Preston]] as the Rockbusters winner.  Karl brings up the [[infinite monkey theorem]] because he read about eight monkeys left on PCs for a month who didn't type anything coherent. 


====9. [[10 May 2003/Transcript#More and More Things are Annoying Me|More and More Things are Annoying Me''' (0:40:20)'']]====
Steve's got an update on his future relationship with [[Dido]]: so far, nothing's happened.  Karl didn't enjoy the Sonys.  An old fella in the toilet "farts, he just farts" while Karl was in there.  Karl farts near Suzanne so he doesn't have to rub her back, but Mr Pilkington has never farted in front of [[Karl's Mam|Karl's mam]].  She won't go to the toilet unless people in the house go out for a walk.  When Karl was in a nappy he'd do his business in a corner of the kitchen and didn't like people looking at him.  His mam also taught him a toilet trick involving matches.


5. '''Dejection'''
====10. [[10 May 2003/Transcript#Always Put Your Best Stuff Out There|Always Put Your Best Stuff Out There (0:48:10)'' ]]====
<br>''This is terrible. I mean, we didn't even say what the prizes were, we weren't gonna do this. The phone's going. Look at the phones; they're going mental.''
[[Chinatown Is Not A Town|Chinatown's not a town]] and Karl was propositioned by a 80 year old prostitute.  [[Monkey News]] is about a monkey who had a gig at a hairdresser's. Karl had his hair cut by a man on a railway track and also by some wanna-be gangsters who sold hot goods on the side.


====11. [[10 May 2003/Transcript#No One Likes To Pick On An Invalid|No One Likes To Pick On An Invalid (0:54:27)'' ]]====
