It's the last free one, but they're continuing next week for a small fee. [[Ricky]] tries a bit of admin and he and Steve remind the listeners that [[Karl]] needs the money. The boys have just had their photo taken for the Guinness Book of World Records for the most downloaded podcast. Karl's not bothered, but is impressed by the fella with the most ear hair. That's commitment. People ask for a signed picture of Karl's ''head''. Karl has a head like a fucking orange. | It's the last free one, but they're continuing next week for a small fee.

They are making their way through the emails. What's the most romantic thing Karl has done for [[Suzanne]]? Luckily she was ill on Valentine's Day. Karl's advice is "Treat 'em when they deserve it". He once dragged her to the supermarket when she had a fever, suggesting she stay in the frozen foods aisle. How would Karl chat up a woman in a bar? The story of how Karl and Suzanne met, and that she's never asked for the 20p back that she lent him for hot chocolate. Karl is 40p up. Ricky tries to explain to Karl why a he and a lion wouldn't understand each other for such different frames of reference. A worm underground has nothing to offer Karl. If Karl was to have a go at God, he'd say He added too much water. Fish have more rights than us. | They are making their way through the emails.

Ricky asks Karl what he thinks it's like being a crab and then a slug. Karl's never read ''Metamorphosis'' (surprise surprise) but Steve discusses it with Karl. If Karl was a normal-sized beetle, he'd ingratiate himself with the rest of the beetles. He wouldn't feel bad shagging a beetle if he were one. You've got to get on with it. A slug is always on its own, it's a lonely insect. Next it's on to what Karl would do if he were a baby wasp in a spider. Karl would try to sleep. | Ricky asks Karl what he thinks it's like being a crab and then a slug.

If it was Karl's last day, he'd be worried and just stay in rather than going to a fair. The fair option amuses Steve.

He doesn't talk to his dad about history because they reckon something similar has happened more recently. An island in the Indian Ocean where tribesmen are still living like cavemen. Karl speculates that perhaps modern life existed far into the past. The tribesmen wave their tackle about when they want you to leave. | Time for [[Karl's Diary]].

Karl: Even if he's English?
Karl: But what I mean is.. I don't know what I mean.
Ricky: It's official, there's two buttons on this space ship: Banana Dispenser, and Everything Else.
Karl: But just 'cause I'm not doing the news, look it up. It's all out there. Don't be ignorant.
