With so much time on my hands yesterday due to the snow storm, I fancied a wee surf in the iTunes Music Store… I was in the market for some new Podcasts. After some fruitless searching for anything that really caught my eye, I noticed a listing for the most popular podcasts pertaining to the number of downloads - the #1 spot was held by The Ricky Gervais Show. If you’re British, Ricky won’t need an introduction - if you’re not, he’s the bloke behind the UK version of The Office - that’d be the funny version, not the fucking American rip off, starring Steve “Fudgenugget McAssbandit” Carell.
[back to point]
So I decide to give Ricky’s podcast a listen to - and bare in mind, I have a very limited podcast library… just one, to be exact - which is the PGRevolution.com PSP Podcast. Seeing as I had the extra space on my Nano, I felt like downloading the entire list from iTunes (which was the most recent 4 episodes) and load ‘em up.
The Ricky Gervais Show Podcast has 3 chaps sounding off - Ricky Gervais, Steve Merchant and Karl Pilkington. From listener e-mails to readings of Karl’s personal diary, this podcast is the funniest thing I have ever heard. If you have a mp3 player, download it. If you don’t have a mp3 player, download it and play it on your PC.
Just so we’re clear, download the fucking podcast - Ricky, you personify comedic genius.

I will be listening to it on the way to work tonight as it is just about the right length heh. Since I loved the UK version of The Office, I am pretty certain I will like this as well =)

I think Karls ramblings make this podcast. Make it your mission to find the earlier shows. His theory on how to curb over population cannot be missed.
