21 September 2002
21 september 2002 Ricky, Steve and Karl discuss obesity and art, and Karls 30th birthday leads him to think about the best thing he's ever done.
Track Listing
Rubbish
I listened to an old show and I listened to me, and I sounded like the most inarticulate, braindamaged old drunk I have ever heard giving a show.
Fat
The fact that he featured on the Ordnance Survey map should have been a clue that it's time to stop eating!
Jonno
It's funny, cos he does a breakfast show on 'Heart' when he's wrecking his own, it's a bit of irony...
Mouse
They fed a mouse a load of cake and he went a little bit chubby and he said 'right, stop a minute' and then they gave it this drug that makes you lose weight. And it's weight went down, but the only bad side effect was it's eyes were popping out.
Sumo
You know what an apprentice sumo's job is? they wipe the sumo wrestlers arse cos they can't reach, they literally can't reach...
Football
-We played football, didnt we?
-Well, I did...
Art
Lowry, It's real, innit? You look at his pictures and you see, like, little disabled people walking about...
Frottage
I think they mean 'footage'. If you're buying it for 'frottage' you are gonna be disappointed.
Record
There's a guy up north, he's in the Guinness Book of Records, for being able to put a car, a little Mini, on his head, and you think "Oh, that's good!" But... without the engine in!
Upset
When you read there's a man, 10 ft underground, pulling women through a tube, you've gotta sit youself down, ask yourself some very serious questions.
Text
I was washing up, and I picked up the plate and I thought it's amazing, innit, the human body, the way you can just sort of, you know, "I wanna pick that up", and the way your hands work, you've got five little digits, but it's just the right amount to do what you gotta do, right?
Karls Quiz
-Karl, if this is rubbish, I'm never working with you again...
-What'd you mean, if this is rubbish?
