BEST OF compilation of the rare moments when Karl Pilkington laughs, chuckles, giggles, and chortles. During The Ricky Gervais Show's run on XFM in the early 2000s, Karl Pilkington rarely laughed, even while saying some of the most ridiculous things imaginable. But every so often, Karl would laugh, whether because he realized his own absurdity, or Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant had said something so hilarious that he simply couldn't contain himself. In these precious moments, Karl's laughter really is infectious. Enjoy!

BEST OF compilation of WHITE VAN KARL, one of the most memorable features of The Ricky Gervais Show's run on XFM in the early 2000s. Stephen Merchant and Ricky Gervais ask their "producer," Karl Pilkington, the questions that the Sun asks someone else in their White Van Man section, where a member of the public is asked their opinions on the week's big political and social hot potatoes. Essentially, the Sun's White Van Man provides the "average Joe" perspective on the week's big stories. Similarly, WHITE VAN KARL provides an avenue to explore Karl's unique perspective on political issues and current events. Some of the greatest moments on the XFM show; e.g., MAN MOTH, HORSE IN THE HOUSE, etc., came out of this feature. This BEST OF compilation is based on the 2-part compilation of WHITE VAN KARL released previously on the channel.

PART 1 of a compilation of the best bits from The Ricky Gervais Show on Xfm. This will be at least an 8-part series. At long last, a comprehensive BEST OF compilation covering the formative years of Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant and, of course, Karl Pilkington. These are the greatest moments from our shambolic trio. On Xfm, Ricky, Steve & Karl discussed the most ridiculous things imaginable. It was a special time, over 2 decades ago, when these three comedy geniuses came up with the most laugh-out-loud drivel ever broadcast on radio. ENJOY!

Listen to this interview of Clemens Dubslaff, Assistant Professor, Eindhoven University of Technology, the Netherlands. We talk about the cultural dividing lines between researcher communities, and of course, how to cross those lines into whole new areas of research. Clemens Dubslaff : "One particular thing I would like to see eXplainable Formal Methods (XFM) do is to revisit the many papers from the early 1990s and so on — papers from logic and programming, where we have many things ready already. I mean, these papers have, in many cases, already discussed explanation, even from the standpoint of philosophy. So, these are just really good papers, but unfortunately more on the forgotten side. That's why I think that connecting that knowledge from the past — say, about causality, for instance — to this new field of XFM will certainly help and advance the research."

Compilation of every MONKEY NEWS segment from The Ricky Gervais Show PODCAST which came after the Xfm show. Once again, Karl Pilkington brings the most newsworthy and entertaining monkey or ape-related stories to his two best buddies, Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, who provide comedic commentary. This is one of Karl Pilkington's most beloved features. Monkeys are near and dear to Karl's simian heart. He spent much of his time during the XFM years sitting at home, looking up spurious monkey facts on the Internet. He would then share this unreliable monkey-related drivel with Ricky & Steve, who, over time, became increasingly irate at Karl's evermore outlandish monkey musings. CHAPTERS: Hit the Left Button (0:00) Monkeys Learn Value of Money (6:09) Monkey Sanctuary (10:02) Chimp Chat Show (17:54) Half Human Half Ape (22:46) Monkey Fireman (29:21) Little Hairy Fella with a Hard Hat (32:53) Monkey Olympian (37:49) Monkey Pilot (43:14) Monkey Jockey (48:34) Monkey Doctor (54:48) Retired NASA Monkeys (59:49) FINAL Monkey News (1:05:05) --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/rskxfm/support

Majorly excited to have Patricia Reed on the pod. This is a beefy episode! If I was looking for a major reset in my relationship to the world around me, I'd start here.Here's a list of the references we make throughout the interview:Here's that e-flux diagram I talk about in the intro, and here's a lecture in which she discusses this diagram. Here's the Diagramming the Common piece, which is older but I really like it. Here's a must-read interview with Denise Ferreira da Silva where the concept of "the end of the world as we know it" is postulated.When Patricia Reed refers to the "logics of worlds" in a Badiousian sense, she's referring to Alain Badiou's work on truth and world. Unless you're down for a real rabbithole, you're likely good with Reed's description here.Reed references Margaret Morrison and the Black-Scholes model in the context of finance.Reed references Sylvia Wynter's work consistently, specifically her discussion of humanism and of Frantz Fanon.Check out Beth Coleman's work on Octavia Butler AI, as well as da Silva's "Unpayable Debt" (inspired by Butler's Kindred) -- and if you somehow haven't read the Lilith's Brood Trilogy after we discussed it with Luciana Parisi, go read it (aka Xenogenesis). It's like idk the most important work of fiction in the last 50 years idk!!!Ofc big shoutouts as always Anil Bawa-Cavia -- this is the book we discuss toward the end of the episode.If you aren't aware of Laboria Cuboniks and the XFM, stop listening and read it!!!

What's DAT? That's DIGITAL AUDIO TAPE - Photo Confirmation - Part 2

POST #2 - Included are 4 more authentic photos of the Digital Audio Tapes (DATs) for The Ricky Gervais Show, which aired on London alternative radio station Xfm from 2001 to 2005. The are tapes for Series 4 Episodes 1 & 2, and Series 3 Episodes 10 & 12. However, the audio does not come from the DATs, as I don't have any of them (yet). Audio clips are included to provide context to listeners regarding the episodes that are apparently contained on these tapes. I've interpreted the tape with "2/01/2004" as Series 3 Episode 10, which would've been recorded on Saturday, 3 January 2004. Either they pre-recorded that week's episode on Friday January 2nd, or the date on the tape is wrong. This date, "2/01/2004" doesn't seem to correspond to any other episode. I'd appreciate any insight you all may have on this question. SEND COMMENTS! I'm working to obtain one or more of the DATs, if permitted (no guarantees). Please be patient as I continue to try and uncover further information on the DIGITAL AUDIO TAPES for the beloved XFM radio show featuring Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant, and Karl Pilkington.
