1. 9000 Points If They Cut Peter Stringfellow’s Hair (0:00:00)

The boys prepare us for the arrival of some posh lads, who are scavenging for charity, by analysing their challenges.

2. The Twat In The Hat (0:03:08)

We learn a little about Suzanne - she's a journalist, but not like a proper one, she's upset with Karl's new found fame as an 'idiot', this prompts Karl's telling of the Little Donkey story, the highs and lows of drumming at his school nativity play, including how to contact alien life forms with 'Oggy, Oggy, Oggy'.

3. What Were The Things In Gremlins?(0:09:23)

White Van Karl gets underway, Kylie Minogue would make a good looking old lady, increasing taxes to pay for the NHS is good, Karl wouldn't have worked in radio, if it weren't his dad being in hospital and the infamous Gremlins discussion takes place.

4. Skoe And Belch (0:14:20)

Trendy posh boys joins our heroes to discuss their scavenger hunt challenge and what kind of music they like - rubbish music, they give a big shout out to S Club 7, in the hopes of getting on stage with them, did they - we don't know or care.

5. Snakes Are Deaf

White Van Karl continues, Karl is pleased about the British Olympic gold medal for curling, but not the hype that's followed; the world's tallest man has just turned up in Neasden, he should get his tumour sorted according to Karl an d finally the British climate is changing, making it hospitable for more exotic wildlife, Karl is not pleased, he'd rather have bad weather and avoid deadly snakes.

6. Bad Lyrics By Good Artists

Steve thinks corny songs are preferable to pretentious twoddle, Ricky and Steve break down the plot of Enrique Iglesias' Hero video. Followed by adverts!!!!

7. It's That Point In The Show

Song For The Lovers Ricky introduces Jimmy Webb and his lovely arse. What?

8. They Just Wheel You Out

Steve hopes nu-metal fans can appreciate these classic songs, Karl tries to plug Ian Camfield's show - to the displeasure of Rick and Steve, Karl gets upset, Steve orders him to switch his microphone off and stop interrupting Ricky telling us about Camfield, he does, they forgive Karl, more ads!!!!

9. English Quite Good

Karl had trouble filling out a job application, misunderstanding the 'language' section, but he's making an effort, by nearly remembering the name of Slobodan Milosevic. We learn that Karl never got his GCSE exam results, he thinks he took English, Maths, Art and Physics, but can't remember it well and he doesn't believe in revision. What's bugging Karl, is how do you put down a snake? You can pick it up because it's deaf, but putting it down? Who knows. Back to academia and next week, on this very show, live on-air, we will find out Karl's exam results... oh yeah, he didn't collect them because he had to use gold ink in his printing job that day.

The book 'They Died Young' - about people that aren't really dead // Bruce Lee faked his death - working for the government in hong kong as undercover cop "if you're gonna use someone undercover in Hong Kong, I suggest using the most famous Chinaman of all time", "you look a bit like Bruce Lee" - "No I don't, see this moustache?" KP - "Not trying to offend anyone here, but they do all look the sa-" RG - "RIGHT! NO NO NO! ...I'm so sorry".
