1. I'm A Bad Man, Cos I Don't Give Lungs Away?
Karl is stressing out after Ricky and Steve put him under pressure; despite the two of them making Karl what he is today, he says there's only so much he can give back, he compares it to repaying someone who'd saved his life. Karl recounts his and Ricky's tale of being 'Have-A-Go Heroes', more like 'Have-A-Walk Heroes' by all accounts; apparently being robbed is very distressing, Karl would confirm this, but unfortunately has broken his microphone and thus is on the receiving end of a double 'play a record'.
2. They Do Go Out Late
Karl looks like the Smash aliens, which is not great as he's hungover after partying at an Xfm gig the night before, at which Steve tore up the place with his tip top hip hop mega mix, respect. Ricky listens in disbelief as Steve describes the 'big-ups' he got from three lovely ladies and disc jockey supremo Zane Lowe, all for playing three old records in a certain order. Ricky recounts his conversation with Karl about songs with a story, this leads to a breakdown of the narrative from the Rod Stewart classic The Killing of Georgie, ending with a classic Karl theory, Gays Go Out Too Late. He proffers a story of Suzanne travelling in a cab through Soho at 4am, while it was 'mental' with gays, QED.
