26 October 2002 Steve wants tickets for Bruce Spingsteen. Karl explains how to escape from anacondas.
Track Listing
Hook
I've come to the conclusion, Rick, we should never refer to stuff Karl said in the past. Cos it'll just take too long to explain.
Boxing
You reminded me of Frank Bruno, when he was preparing for panto.
Smart
The only thing that would be more enbarrassing is if you had to patrol on one of those bikes the Goodies used to ride. That's the only thing I think that would be more pathetic.
Ticket
-Karl, what's Steve ever done for you?
-Well, you took me to the BAFTA's. Yeah, but only cos no-one else would probably wanna go with you.
Snake
Let's say you've fallen asleep, the anaconda's chewing your feet, you let it eat up to the knees, you've got a knife, what do you do then, Karl?
Electric
He'd be having a bath, and everything would be alright, and then the power would sort of switch on in his body, and the electric in his body made him jump out of the bath, so...
Memories
-What's the first thing you remember?
-What, as a kid? Eh, being in the hall , and having our dog licking me face.
Rockbusters
-It's just that we should have done this a lot earlier.
-why?
-It keeps em hooked in.
Recap
Do you wanna do a little quick reclap...eh, re...rec..oh, I can't be bothered even to say it. I really can't... I'm not interested. I'm just not interested.
Sorry
-What's the 'Song with a story' this week? Just say it.
-It's Gene Pitney, '24 hours from Tulsa'.
-Oww, I'm really sorry about this if you're an XFM listener we've gotta listen to this. Go on.
Ending
He's just a cat looking out of the window at a dead mouse, or something. You can go 'Come here!',and it's just looking at the mouse it could eat. You wanna press the buttons and finish, don't you?
