Synopsis
In this pithy and hilarious book, Karl Pilkington is in conversation with (the often bewildered) Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, the writers and stars of "The Office" and "Extras," unwittingly outwitting even those comedy Goliaths as he struggles in vain to make sense of the world around him., When The Ricky Gervais Show free podcasts were first launched this past winter, they racked up a record-setting 4 million downloads. And when the creators started charging for the podcasts, they went straight to number 1 on bestseller lists in the US and the UK. Now, the best of these podcasts are available in this snappy hardcover, featuring full-color illustrations. But who is Karl Pilkington? He is, on the one hand, a radio producer who worked with Ricky Gervais and his long-time writing partner Stephen Merchant on their highly popular UK radio show. He is, on the other hand, a brilliant mind, locked inside a perfectly round head, and uncluttered by the unhelpful constraints of logic or common sense. In this pithy and hilarious book, Karl is in conversation with the often bewildered Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, the writers and stars of ?The Office, ? and ?Extras, ? outwitting even these comedy Goliaths with his takes on such contentious issues as monkeys in space, the lack of Chinese homeless people, reincarnation, and favorite superpowers. Read it and be educated'or horrified'and certainly amused., In this pithy and hilarious book, Karl Pilkington is in conversation with (the often bewildered) Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, the writers and stars of The Office and Extras , unwittingly outwitting even those comedy Goliaths as he struggles in vain to make sense of the world around him. Unencumbered by erudition and impervious to logic, Karl ambles down a heuristic path to enlightenment under the edifying influence of Ricky and Steve. His pronouncements on such diverse and contentious topics as population control, simian affairs within human society, the sartorial deliberations of solitary spacemen and how long you can stay alive with your head chopped off, are matched in the vehemence with which they are proposed only by the degree to which they are ill-conceived. Featuring Karl's original illustrations, imaginative scribblings and the best conversations of the world record-breaking Podcasts, The Ricky Gervais Show , this is a unique trip into the world of one of our most innovative thinkers, visionaries and prophets, or as Gervais knows him, "the funniest man I've ever met."
