Ricky Gervais, Steven Merchant and Karl Pilkington actually. Its really funny. Ooooh Chimpanzee That! MONKEY NEWS! I wont spoil it by talking about it until you all listen. made me chortle though. podcast link: http://www.guardian.co.uk/podcasts/rickygervais/mp4.xml Ricky Gervais on Guardian Unlimited Starting Monday December 5 2005: Ricky Gervais on Guardian Unlimited, an exclusive series of podcasts that will tackle, finally, the big questions.
Such as: "Jellyfish - do we need them"? And: "Why do you never see an old bloke eating a Twix"?
The brand-new series of 30-minute audio programmes will see Gervais joined by writing partner Stephen Merchant and the man Gervais calls "the funniest man alive", Karl Pilkington. "The trouble is," adds Gervais, "he doesn't know he's being funny".
"I want to do a radio show where I can say what I want, when I want, for as long as I want and that's free for anybody who can be bothered to listen, anywhere in the world," Gervais says. "We didn't want it to just be the best bits of a radio programme you'd missed so this is a show that is straight-to-podcast.
"I suppose we're trying to create an exclusive club. We'd prefer this to be a few people's favourite show than a huge samey ineffectual broadcast."
Come back to this page on Monday December 5 to find out how to download the podcast to your PC or MP3 player, and make sure you get all 12 episodes, which will be made available only from Guardian Unlimited every Monday.

Someone gave me a cd of his radio stuff. Absolutely hilarious. Especially that Karl fella. The Wonderful Tonight bit is funny as fuck. So's Karl jumping the fench at some place that only costs £3 to get in.

Episode one was brilliant... I'll listen to Episode two on the train later... The first one is basically Karl Pilkington, which is no bad thing.

the best bit is when he goes "FUCK OFF!" in his really high pitched voice.
and I like the bit when steven merchant says
"And everyone goes 'ahh I wish they'd stop leaving this tankard around'"
"haha. It must be a pain. A tiny little tankard in a pub... that must be a real grind."
