Track Listing
1. "I've Never Kept a Diary"
Ricky relays a bit of conversation they had when Ricky came in that morning. Karl wanted to know if Ricky had seen "that Alan Clark Diaries" because, as Karl concludes, keeping a diary will always get you into trouble. Ricky mentions Anne Frank and Karl inquires "the woman in the cupboard?". After Steve and Ricky force Karl to confess his ignorance on air, they explain a little more about who she was but Karl still doesn't think much of Anne (Karl is on a first-name basis with her) as she got caught. For once, Karl is right when he decides to leave it because it might be dodgy material. Karl continues his thoughts on diaries, and Steve and Ricky conjecture what Karl's diary might be like, mentioning his Dave Hill from Slade comment about Suzanne's haircut. Karl concludes that diaries were a way to pass the time in prior generations but has now been replaced by modern devices like the iPod. Ricky suggests "The iPod of Anne Frank".
2. Proclaimers
Matt Lucas of Little Britain[1] fame is listening in; Lucas spoke with Ricky earlier and revealed that his favorite band is The Proclaimers[2] Ricky and Steve are both stunned that anyone could be enthused about the band, citing their singing in Scottish accents as their best feature.
"On Hubbard: Debunking Nursery Rhymes"
Reminded of cupboards, Ricky Mother Hubbard's ryhme is explored by ricky and steve who think it's perhaps based up on a lonely old woman's difficulties. Ricky pukes up some of his "weak observations, poorly performed" on Humpty dumpty, and reaches a hand out to the audience to ask where it comes from, which is most likely about a cannon that fell off a wall.
This is followed by a bit of Jimmy Webb, namely the track "Galveston".
Ricky slags off the dog in the mother hubbard ryhme becaue of it's pipe smoking ability and it's dancing, and delivers a shocker in the form of the dog sucking on a choc ice, which is fine.
Quotes
Ricky: Tell us everything you know about Anne Frank. Karl: Uh.... she was in a cupboard. Ricky: (laughing) Yeah. What else? Karl: If she didn't do that, I wouldn't known about her, seriously. That's all I know about her.
Ricky: She wasn't in a cupboard; she was in an attic. Karl: Alright.... so what was she doing? ""Steve:"" Tidying up. ""Ricky:"" She was hiding from the Nazis. ""Karl:"" But isn't that the first place they'd look? Sort of... work from the top down.
""Steve:""The thing with Hubbard is - funny you just briefly mentioned Hubbard...
