Despite having spent the better part of his adult life working for a radio station, not to mention being the man responsible for the long-running music quiz Rockbusters, Karl is not a particularly big fan of music. He shows nothing but indifference to most of the songs played by Ricky and Steve on the show, and has said that if he owned an iPod there are only a handful of tracks he would put on it.
