Every Monday Morning, I listen to The Ricky Gervais Show. Apparently, the show is the “World’s No. 1 Podcast.”
If you’ve not heard the show before, I can highly recommend it to you. You might ask what the show’s about. The answer is “nothing at all.” You’re about to waste a perfectly good thirty minutes of your life by listening to the incoherent drivel of Ricky Gervais, Steve Merchant, and Karl Pilkington.
Ricky himself takes somewhat of a backseat role in this production. Karl is really the star of the show. It’s almost impossible to describe Karl. The closest character I can think of is Adrian Mole, of fictional diary fame. Karl has been elevated to cult-figure status, according to at least one article in Reuters.
You can download the podcast via iTunes, or from http://www.rickygervais.com. There’s only one show left in the series of twelve, but a second series has been mentioned on the show.
It’s gone quiet again…
