Karl saw a programme where "a fella was a little lad, and a woman".  Aphrodite?  The doctor probably wasn't sarcastic to the parents when the baby was bornThe baby wasn't sort of well hung so the doctor recommended making it a woman, back in the day when a baby was ugly so they'd make it a boy.
More cock soup discussion....in this day and age they call it that?
 
Karl then talks about seeing a program about a hermaphrodite. Only he thinks the term is "aphrodi-tee" so...lot's of discussion about boys and girls an' that.
====3. A One-Night Trick  ''(0:08:44)''====
what kind of doctor says, let's chop off the knob cause he's a little shortchanged?
Hermaphrodite conversation continues. The teenager years when you look a bit odd. When a penis is attached, do they wack on a dead one?  Donut/donor confusion.  Noel Edmonds is not a man, Keith Chegwin, John Wayne Bobbit. The French artist who cut his knob off for art.

So--you raid Hitler's bunker, and your first thought is....let's take his john thomas?
[[Songs of Phrase]], you might win if you even get two right. It has no fan base and no one championing it.

I Know You're Just 16 But Looking All of 21; That's Because Chinese Look Older. Steve reads the barnstorming prizes - everyone's going crazy for Mower.  The Polyphonic Spree will only make 40 quid each.
Karl remembers a device in Victorian days. He thinks it is a torture device. But it is most likely the device to stop boys from wanking. Karl--there weren't any good lookin women then anyway"
 
"All victorian women...filthy and stinky"
====7. Spandau Ballet Golfy Golfy Golf Cart  ''(0:23:49)''====
Rolling Stones--Beast of Burden. for the first time on XFM
Dominic Mohan is in the paper today, writing about the demise of the Radio 1 and calling upon people including Ricky to revive it. Steve is baffled.  Ricky would bring back some of his catch phrases and comedy characters, including [[Ho-Lee Fuk]] but with no racist accent. A new character named [[Dirty Old Queer]]. Remember when [[Chris Moyles|Moyles]] changed the words of ''This is My Moment'' to "This is My Motor"?  When Ricky and Steve tried to phone up with a golf-related song. Ding dong!  Quack quack oops.
Happy 60th birthday this year for Mick Jagger
 
Songs of phrase this week...
====8. Another One of Them Popular Things Round Our Way ''(0:28:11)''====
"I know you're just 16, but looking all of 21. That's because CHIIIIIIIIIIIIInese, look older" If there's any phrase with chinese in it, it will be phil bailey. phil played twice now, that's great royalties for him.
Elbow is an exception to [[The Stadium Test]]. They haven't taught the listeners anything yet. Karl thinks people listen to Heart to hear Simply Red. On Magic, they do 5 hour shifts and read their own news. Are leaves ever late for work because there's people on the tracks?  For one night only, can we back [[Educating Ricky]]?  Galileo chat. Stop messing with that, make a telly. A fella who said that women shouldn't wear trousers. Leggings are a terrible idea. The woman whose kid had a horse in the house worked on a sex line and wore them.  The people around where Karl grew up who had big eyelids. 
Steve reads the prizes. Play it again Karl.
 
Steve reads a blurb from an article about the demise of Radio 1. And Ricky Gervais is listed as a savior?
====9. Wait Till You Get to Thirty  ''(0:38:32)''====
Ricky could do that. He'd be the furry shreddy. Bring Holy Fuk back etc. Do the wacky jingles and sound effects for the breakfast show. Dirty old queer.
A Chinese listener has written who is often [[The Chinese Don't Age Well|mistaken]] to be younger. Another has a mate named Oy.  A good freaky program is going to be on this week, with a woman with a big head. Karl thinks she looks like a cartoon.  Another chat about how they'd be identified in restaurants.  What does Karl find nice or brilliant with the world?  A nice game of snooker can be ruined when Ricky says "Look at his little monkey hands" or when Steve peers over the cubicle at him in the toilet.  Ricky wants to put The Darkness in a show they write.  
oh hello!
 
Ricky recaps a story about how they tried to call Moyle's show just to say something stupid about golf-related songs on Moyle's-ies show. Wasted 40 quid on the phone.
====10. I'm Thinking of Being Homeless Outside the Royal Albert Hall ''(0:43:40)''====
Elbow--Fallen Angel.
Steve is livid about having been approached by a homeless man from Liverpool. A programme about Oxford Street showed The Salvation Army's room where they collect clothing, including a load of ties. Karl doesn't think it's a good plan to send spectacles to Africa, lest they realise how rubbish it is around there.  South Africa are in a load of debt and that's without any shops. Who just spent a billion quid in Dixons?
"Would you please welcome to the stage--Elbow"
 
"Ladies and gentlemen...the Boomtown Rats"
====11. Your Dreads are Awful ''(0:49:02)''====
Halfway thru...Karl what-do ya think? "It's all right"
Steve supports a musical festival in Bristol, this year featuring Robert Plant. Steve wants to give some massive props to the St John's Ambulance people.  Ricky thinks the Salvation Army is great, playing that bloody tambourine rain or shine. Does the Salvation Army get called up if needed?  Who's the best person there is?  Ricky will check with Carol Vorderman or Esther Rantzen, but Karl's annoyed with Carol's show because other people might deserve new kitchens.
Magic's DJs have five hour shifts, and read their own news!
 
And their links are awful...aw, bless 'em.
====12. Just a Little Monkey Getting On With It ''(0:55:30)''====
Karl read a little this past week on Galileo. He doesn't understand all the hubbub about Galileo. "We need a telly!" Karl brings this back the following week in the songs of phrase about galileo and science. but we need the telly!
What was Ricky doing in 1978?  Songs of Phrase answers and a winner from [[Bognor Regis]].  [[Monkey News]] is about what happened to the astronaut monkey after he went into space. They didn't even bother to bring Laika the dog back. Steve inspects Karl's source. 
and a French fella said women shouldn't wear trousers. Rubbish. "That's a bit daft, innit", says Karl
 
These things don't pass as education.
==Quotes==
"If I read it and it gets me thinkin' that's a good little piece." says Karl  
'''Ricky''': That is mental, Karl!  It's the most convoluted, ridiculous - ''racist'' - piece of material, ever to be uttered on radio! <br>
Karl again recaps the woman down the street on the estate--the house with the horse in it. She used to wear leggings. They're a bad idea. Apparently another tidbit about this woman. She used to work one of those phone sex lines. Another thing--she had big eyelids. And there was another whole family there with big eyelids. Billy Joel's family I guess. "they suffered with big eyelids, they could hardly open their eyes."
'''Steve''': Play it again!<br>
"What freak town were you born in!" says ricky.
 
The woman with the big head..."it looks just like a cartoon" says karl
==Songs of Phrase==
That show was on this week.
'''I Know You're Just 16, But Looking All Of 21, That's Because The Chinese Look Older'''
Karl can't play snooker with Ricky. Or go to the toilet. Steve can peer over the cubicle partition and interrupt karl's bathroom goin'
 
Homeless talk. Steve confronted by someone who says, "I'm from Liverpool, and I'm homeless." Steve--well there, that's your problem! You're in London!"
<br>Waterfront - "Cry" (I know you're just 16, but looking all of 21.) ''Mistakenly referred to as 'Hue & Cry' by Karl.
More homeless and charity discussion.
<br>Dean Martin - "That's Amore" (That's)
The Bristol festival...Steve recaps it and talks about the St. John's Ambulance Service people. Big props to them!
<br>Jane's Addiction - "Just Because" (because)
Songs of phrase answers and now monkey news: the monkey astronaut who got his pension from NASA,was made a Colonel, trained other ? did he train Neil Armstrong? got his pension, died in 1969, was buried with his wife....
<br>Phillip Bailey - "Chinese Wall" (the Chinese)
Did he learn to take off or dock or press buttons?
<br>Roxette - "The Look" (look)
Ricky--I'm pretty sure he was tied in with electrodes and was there to study weightlessness and see if he got sick under 40g's.
<br>George Michael - "Older" (older.)
 
==Trivia==
Ricky's proposed Radio 1 nickname, "The Furry Shreddie", is a reference to DJ Dave Lee Travis who dubbed himself "The Hairy Cornflake" when taking over as host of the Radio 1 Breakfast Show. "Quack quack oops" was a popular sound effect used on his show.
