Seems like you're doing ok to me. Series 2 was only 6 episodes!!

 

Yeah but its an archive of 8 rar files. Then you unzip them and have all the podcasts as mp3s.

 

Need the final part to unzip them all.

1.4gb!!!!

 

I ripped them from the Offical CD box set and then compressed the files down to 172MB. The Sound quality is still near perfect.

I dont suppose anyone can download this file? - RapidShare: Easy Filehosting

 

Its 30MB, its the last part of the archive for the ricky gervais xfm podcasts. I need this part to extract them all.

 

If anyone can download it (keeps saying download session expired for me), then please let me know. If someone can download it and send it to me over msn (woo_5@hotmail.co.uk) I will owe you one, big time.

I used to fucking love the Gervais podcast. I'd heard of Karl before in a few things Gervais had done (he mentions him in his stand ups and he's on he extras) and he was fucking hillarious.

 

However, in the later episodes it just seemed too contrived. Karl knew why he was funny and it seemed scripted which was shit compared to when he was this ignorant moron that Merchant and Gervais just poked at with hillarious results.

 

When someone that stuipid finds out why they are hillarious I guess it's hard for them not to play up to it.

I will stick up for the podcast here. The reason it seems contrived, is because it was, really. All the material on the podcasts (apart from the later released podfather and onwards) were trimmed down highlights frommtheir xfm radio shows.

 

You can download those too, to listen to the original material in it's purest form. You hear them start to ask him the odd question, probe him a bit more, the listen to him become the star of the show.

 

The new ones will be well worth a listen.

I've only heard the original shows, so I don't know how it comes across on the podcast, but I think he's genuine. I think Karl does know why he's funny to an extent, but listening to the entire shows instances occur where I think you can tell that he's being himself - like the fact that he tries to be conciously witty sometimes, and that Ricky and Steve sometimes probe him and get nothing, he just gives a reasonable answer.

Gervais, Merchant and Pilkington have brought out some hour long audio books.

 

The Ricky Gervais guide to.....

 

So far they've released, medicine, the arts, nature and today they've released the guide to philosophy.

 

I listen to these on itunes, but would like them on my ipod - I only have one of the little shuffle models. Is it supposed to take years for a podcast to synch and would it help if I didn't have such a little aids ridden ipod?

I like a few podcasts

 

The Adam and Joe Podcast (Which is actually on a break for a while cos they've stopped their radio show)

Smodcast

The Football Ramble

Anything with Gerv, Merch and Pilk

 

Yeah, the Adam and Joe one is one of the offenders on my suscription list. One of my favs so looking forward to them getting back to work.

 

EDIT: you mean 6 music have stopped the show? Or they are still on Christmas duty?.
