On the last episode of series 3, Karl learns of a new fan in the form of short actor Warwick Davis. Karl reveals the mystery of the one face man, whilst Ricky teaches Karl about determinism. The boys listen to Karl whine about his horrific kidney experience, and the diary reveals a deep dive into the UK's national health service. A new poem emerges, and Karl receives bad news about his father (or so he thinks).
The time has come for Karl as his first book, 'The World of Karl Pilkington', is officially published. Karl explains how Shakespeare invented a lot of swear words, Steve explains the difference between Karl's diary and that of Samuel Pepys, Karl describes the man who's skull has fell off. The boys also chat twaddle about toenails, scrotum relocation, Steve's nightclub experience, a bridge toll monkey, and a depressive slug.
Ricky and Steve have had it with Karl and his laziness. This week, Karl goes to a museum, some flies have a fight, Karl pitches his new idea, and the diary speaks of absolute drivel again. Oh, and Karl makes up yet another word.
Karl has had a kidney stone, not sure if you've heard. This week, the boys talk about survival and evolution. God help us all. And Karl treats us to a whopping 3 poems! The boys talk about what a story is, and Karl has a go at an octopus again.
This week, Karl has had a kidney stone, the boys talk about animals going up against each other, Karl makes up a word, and he writes another poem about his day.
The boys are back in town, but the twaddle has not gone anywhere! This week, the boys discuss what Karl has been looking at in his weeks off from podcasting, depressing moths, fat families, heavy eyelids, and body swaps. Karl's diary is back, and ladies and gentlemen prepare yourselves, because Karl has written… a poem.
It's the last episode of the season! But that won't stop the lads talking complete and utter rubbish about topics such as flashbacks through time, old tortoises, Karl's brain duality, and the moon landing. Steve asks Karl a series of questions from Inside The Actor's Studio, Karl kicks an octopus, and the boys discuss famous philosophical quotes. I need a break after that.
This week, the boys talk about Sigmund Freud, the world getting old, more saying and phrases, animal facts, Noah's ark, and we hear of Karl and Suzanne's magical trip to the Cotswolds. Yes there is also Rockbusters, but I usually tune out at that point.
