As of late I've found myself listening again to the musings of Karl Pilkington.
Who is/was, if you don't know, voted the funniest man in Britain. Except that he wasn't joking. Formerly the producer at XFM, his views and opinions were found so amusing that Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant (co-writers of the hit BBC series "The Office", which spawned the US, German, French, etc... remakes) brought him into the studio to share them with the public. Completely raucous, with frequent baiting and swearing by Ricky and Stephen playing the straight man, egging him on, they make for strangely compelling listening. Look for those clips with "Monkey News" in the title, which focus on Karl's interpretation of archived stories, facts and miscellany about Monkeys. Chances are you didn't know any of it.
