Monkey news, Rockbusters, Educating Ricky, Knob news, Songs of Phrase, War do you think of that then, Do we need em?... how did this not win a Sony? In my opinion the best radio show ever 'created'
When they get foxy on to ask him why they didn't win and he says "It just wasn't funny" really winds me up. I know humour is subjective but this is possibly the funniest show ever aired on a radio anywhere.
Absolutely. It reached people all over the world, including the Netherlands (although we're literally neighbors, but still). There's even people from Finland and South Africa familiar with Karls antics. Mad innit!
1:01:34 he's walking upright, he's havin a tea in the morning... finishing off the day with brandy. gets a bit out of hand, He only tries it on with the zookeeper's wife!
I love the one about the monkey who posed as the lab assistant, what makes even more funny is that Ricky made up Kirsty as her name and Karl uses Kirsty in the story.
There's a slight difference between Ricky Gervais, a household name, bafta winning, couple of globes and acting in some tv and movies who has millions of fans and a mentalist
Man, could you imagine living in englad driving home from school in the back of the car hearing these guys on the radio every afternoon. God it would have been amazing.
i love when karl says "the magician opens the boot and asks the monkey how it is...and the monkeys yeah i'm sound yeah"...and then later describes the monkey as "givin' it some"
The bit from around 1:52:00 "they said...let's do some business with the bananas". Was listening on the bus and thought i was going to have a hernia trying not to laugh.
Time and time again I see comments about people being reinvigorated by these three and their sense of humour. It's literally gold; THEY are literally GOLD
love all of karl and rickys work, never disappoints me! used to watch these videos going to sleep, one of only things that let me drop off haha. very difficult to sleep as a schizophrenic this usually does the job though, got me and a lot of people through hard times judging by comments ect. thanks for the upload!
The amount of embellishment in these is incredible. It reminds me of writing excercises were you start with a line (or headline) and completely make up a story built around it. I'd be interested to see the actual stories and if they are remotely similar.
Thanks for uploading these. I listened to most of the episodes when they were broadcast on Xfm and it's great to hear them again albeit without the music.
I've got a recording of Gervais screaming "ooh, chimpanzee that, he's gone and written it down again - CUNT!" - a jingle for Karl's diary on the podcasts. I get odd looks when it goes off.
40:27 hahahaha you can hear Karl smugly reaffirming the story when Steve reads the article about the "monkey working at a hairdresser's". Little flavourings of "there ya go", "mmm" and other gormless, inaudible Manc mutterings.
1:54:21 "Make the growture...er....make the feature grow...." He combined the two words by mistake, in the reverse order. A little insight into the mind of KP. No more...it's too baffling.
"You are an idiot" hahaha this show's so funny....omg...funniest thing ever. "I think you might be borderline retarded" hahaha Im dying. Karl's a great bloke he's just naive but the idea that Ricky, while getting really frustrated just lets this out....gold.
That was Roxanne by The Police or, as they're now known, Sting. A song there about a prostitute. Doesn't give her surname, must give her a call, though the effects of 23 years on the game would not render her pleasurable to mine eye
The only thing that's pulling me through my 20's life crisis.
thats dope. git me through tons of grief.
Is the crisis over?
Dude tell me you're in a better spot now?
Yea this was a big help for me then too
Did you make it?

It didnt win an award becouse the people who judge it have very "classic" and pretentious approach to what should be funny.
+98smithg2 That was just because they took the piss out of him all the time

@@giles4565 You do realise that wasn't real with 'Foxy' dont you!?? He was in on that 'interview' quite obviously.....
This is, without a shadow of a doubt, the greatest segment of a radio show, ever!

TechnoBambino Monkey drove to spain on its own.....mad init?"
TechnoBambino "awhhhhh DON'T TALK SHIT KARLLLLL!!!!!"
He speaks, highly educated, photographer...
As I read this comment he said it😂
right we'll make im a colonel.
Apparently he's holder of PhD of Physics
This one always gets me 🤣🤣
I was just wondering, will there ever be a boy born who can swim faster than a shark?
"Something's said."
My favorite line from Karl.
Yep, an under appreciated Karl gem.
I lose it every time
@@minniedriver6871 it's a good line but "And someone kept winning 'em" kills me even more.
@@arturobandini4078😂
Haha! What else did you like?
DON'T TALK SHIT. YOU'RE NEVER DOING THIS AGAIN. Cut to next episode of monkey news.
Ricky is definitely Tull of empty threats haha
"So the monkey drove to Spain"
"It was an automatic"
That had me in stitches 😂🤣
time stamp please
In life, simply because of this show, when a friend's annoying me or talking shite, I'll still say 'play a record'.
Play 2 records!
Which part of the world are you in? Never met another Daniel Swan
Educating Ricky: 'There's More Than Swan Of Them'
Karl actually chuckling a bit is the most endearing thing ever for some reason, probably cus it’s so rare
The mask slips from time to time
1:01:34 he's walking upright, he's havin a tea in the morning... finishing off the day with brandy. gets a bit out of hand, He only tries it on with the zookeeper's wife!
Weird innit?
Lol
Me Auntie Nora I love ur name dude.. lol
+David Billa she had wind for 5 minutes, innit?
+Taylor Jamieson ...and a fanny like a ripped tennis ball. x
+BigJamook and tits like old half deflated balloons
Ricky's anger is my favorite
Michele Neri Ian brown !!!
Michele Neri your well pretty
"what that's the end of it?!?"
'THEY DID NOT SEND A MONKEY DIRECTOR!'
DONT. TALK. SHITE.
"20 offers of marriage, does that bother you Steve?!
I love the one about the monkey who posed as the lab assistant, what makes even more funny is that Ricky made up Kirsty as her name and Karl uses Kirsty in the story.
...I can't take this any more, Steve... I'm gonna be sick.
❤
"Mentalists who write websites about themselves all day". Now Ricky has a daily blog and is on twitter 24/7. Funny how times change
Hasn’t changed even 8 years later
@@Owen_005 Honestly thought this comment was from the last couple of years, seems he's been at it for ages.

@@Crashoverride774not for Michael over here apparently.
@@Crashoverride774hi Ricky
1:30:30 I will never tire of Steve and Ricky's uproarious reaction!
Well done. This slayed me straight away.
1:31:15. Karl says "I think it started off quite simple" when asked about how a chimp-owned wellness center came about. lol
The way Steve says 'Rick, I dont know who to believe.' cracks me up.
The fact that most of these monkey news stories actually exists, makes it all that more funny.
someone kept winning em
Weird innit!
Somethings said...
ricky and Steve's reaction to that is one of my favorite parts
Best bit!!
Even Karl knew that one was going to be hard to sell..
Rachel Martin what time was that?
@@fraserdeavoll5717 ua-cam.com/video/neqojZk3HS4/v-deo.html
Karl: "Anyways... It turns out, he was a chimp"
Ricky: "You're Joking!"
Ricky: "Well... Christ all ffffff mighty! There you go."
+Fortune Rioba this TRICYCLE comes whizzing past.......
+Taylor Jamieson 1:38:00 Haha! loved that one.
"There is always one element you can never anticipate" - Stephen
+Fortune Rioba I love Ricky's voice. " Couldn't quite see the cyclist?"
Man, could you imagine living in englad driving home from school in the back of the car hearing these guys on the radio every afternoon.
God it would have been amazing.
This has me in stitches, so funny the way Steve has to calm Ricky down when he loses it, Karl is one of the funniest people in the public eye today!!
"THAT'S THE END OF THE FFF--STORY!!"
i love when karl says "the magician opens the boot and asks the monkey how it is...and the monkeys yeah i'm sound yeah"...and then later describes the monkey as "givin' it some"
The bit from around 1:52:00 "they said...let's do some business with the bananas". Was listening on the bus and thought i was going to have a hernia trying not to laugh.
4 years since I posted this. Still coming back to this glorious story
"FROM THE ROUGH BIT!!"
Matthew King still makes me laugh uncontrollably lol
Well there's no point in getting into a fight with them cause they're harder than we are. So let's do...
his little legs
2:01:30 Not the first monkey news that comes to mind but the delivery is easily a 10/10. Classic Karl
Lmao... this is my favorite one. The monkey bassist
"Right, you'll like this one..."
Just Karl's 'intro' saying these words and I laugh now. x
My sides! I have heard most of these before but they never get old. Ricky gets so pissed off LMAO
Oh God, the 'PhD in physics' made me laugh so hard I actually nearly fainted. Well done Karl!
1:14:15 might be my all time favourite moment from these shows
"Did he go off an' ave a holiday, did he dadada...?"
The Victorian ape woman is one of my all time favourites! Ricky's little add-ons are priceless.
"Just a scruffy bloke who hasn't had a shave in a while..."
He rarely ever laughs when he knows this is twaddle, which is brilliant.
I've must of listened to this 20+ times & i still piss up laughing every time
!!!
I've listened to this 4 times in the last week and it's still as funny as it was the first time
Time and time again I see comments about people being reinvigorated by these three and their sense of humour. It's literally gold; THEY are literally GOLD

same helps me sleep too
Barney Lawson i thought i was the only one that listened to this before sleeping hahaha, nice to hear other people do the same.
thank you for all the thumbs up :)
I do the same, always listen while drifting off to sleep👍🏼
Karl, Ricky & Steve
"17th century?"
Michele Neri haha
1970s?
Ages ago…
1:19:56 "THAT'S THE END OF MONKEY NEWS! THAT'S THE END OF MONKEY NEWS!"
My favorite of all the angry reactions from Gervais.
My six favourite words:
It's that time again innit?
Jingle.
I swear I have to stop myself from laughing like an idiot when I'm out and about and this starts replaying in my head
The amount of embellishment in these is incredible. It reminds me of writing excercises were you start with a line (or headline) and completely make up a story built around it. I'd be interested to see the actual stories and if they are remotely similar.
"fella comes in" and "the monkey starts backin 'out" always get me... someone has to deconstruct these jokes for future generations...
Thanks for uploading these. I listened to most of the episodes when they were broadcast on Xfm and it's great to hear them again albeit without the music.
I'm sorry but this by far the funniest thing to have graced the radio or possibly an media ever
SO much better than what made it into the cartoon
I've got a recording of Gervais screaming "ooh, chimpanzee that, he's gone and written it down again - CUNT!" - a jingle for Karl's diary on the podcasts.
I get odd looks when it goes off.
Eyes that pop out of their head.... Steve
I love how he always names the monkeys, even though it’s never relevant
"Something's said."
HAAAHAAAHAAAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
'This happened on Scum' is probably the funniest thing Karl's ever said. Pure Genius.
At what point on the video does Ricky say ‘his little legs’ and Karl laughs 😂😂😂 best bit I can’t find it man!
Around 1:04:30, enjoy! 😂
@@DodgyDan4 Thanks for that!
Best entertainment on You Tube ever.
Seriously is. People don't know what joy they're missing.
God the Victorian Ape Woman one was epic XD!!
Loved 1:40:03! "Ooooohh yeaah...Couldn't quite see THE CYCLIST!" lol XD That was classic Ricky!
Ricky was loving Karl's nonsense during that one haha. Definitely one of my favorites
Lol 13:54 "That's the thing about this feature, its mental."
Karl sums it all up.
"The bit that I haven't told you about....it's actually run by a couple o' chimps."
What did we ever do to deserve such golden content
“Was he holding his hand of cards with his feet”
The greatest line ever 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
40:27 hahahaha you can hear Karl smugly reaffirming the story when Steve reads the article about the "monkey working at a hairdresser's". Little flavourings of "there ya go", "mmm" and other gormless, inaudible Manc mutterings.
When he said "photographer" I almost burst lol!!
Could listen to these 3 all day, sometimes I do.
It's the mammal, sort of, with the pointiest eyes. Eyes that pop out of their head... steve...
Have you got a ruler Rick? 😂
1:54:21
"Make the growture...er....make the feature grow...."
He combined the two words by mistake, in the reverse order. A little insight into the mind of KP. No more...it's too baffling.
From a rough bit of the island 🤣
These three make my life complete every day :)
So they said "Right, we'll make him a Colonel.." XD
I mean, that would explain a lot, honestly.
YOU'RE JOKING!!! UNBELIEVABLE IT WAS THE CHIMP ALL ALONG
"we never do this again"
with a insane laugh 1:41:30
hes only 3 foot, but the trophy is 9 foot in the air... XD
"I was worried we wouldn't have the old magic in 2004, but we're still talking shit"
I can’t believe this content is free
I'd pay more to listen to this than I would for Netflix by an absolute mile
This is clearly the best video on the internet today
"You are an idiot" hahaha this show's so funny....omg...funniest thing ever. "I think you might be borderline retarded" hahaha Im dying. Karl's a great bloke he's just naive but the idea that Ricky, while getting really frustrated just lets this out....gold.
"Sorry, is that the news?"
"Well how much do you want?!"
"Mentalists who do websites about themselves every day"
2023: 👀
"Now, you might think *well that's pretty normal* ... the bit I haven't told you about, is, it's actually run by a couple of chimps."
1:30:25
Listen this or twaddle compilation when I put my head down on my pillow at night! Drift off to sleep smiling!
Supposed to be doing housework, two hours later it still needs to be done. Two hours well spent.
I’ve listen to a lot of TRGS, and I’ve NEVER heard Karl laugh so much. Somewhere around 1:07:00
That was Roxanne by The Police or, as they're now known, Sting. A song there about a prostitute. Doesn't give her surname, must give her a call, though the effects of 23 years on the game would not render her pleasurable to mine eye
“Well the bit I haven’t told you about…. It’s actually run by a couple of chimps” 😂😂😂
"lets do business with bananas" ded.
Still need to listen to this once a month absolute gold!
I feel like Ricky Gervais, absolutely doesn't think MKULTRA and Cointelpro ever existed.
You alright Kirsty?
+rjellcome DON'T. TALK. SHIT!!!
+Graham Gordon You're gonna love this one, Steve
A bit of lippy
She wasn't a looker anyways...
every time karl says "right", i have a drink
"Someone kept winning them"
The bike race. One is the best hahahahahahahahah
"He had a roof over his little head" Its how he tells em!
Karl was definitely winding Ricky up with that follow-up to the bank robbery one.
Richard The Lionheart and the driving to spain one!
"He's called Coco, what I've read about him is - he speaks, highly educated....photographer" Cracks me up every time 33:00
A'right. Turns out, it's a little woman fella. A'right,
i don't know what makes me laugh more - Karl believing this stuff or Ricky getting angry about the fact he does
I've been listening to this trio for over a decade, but I still can't get over how bizarre of a feature Monkey News is.
Gold. Pure gold.
12:56 The rare times Karl laughs at a joke
"There's this monkey, right?"
Steve! Make him go away!!!
Hahahahha crying
