Palin is just so sweet and wonderful....
And one thing I love about Karl is that he talks to EVERYONE in exactly the same way. That is a very rare quality....and admirable in a lot of ways, I think.
Hes just like a child... lol
He could meet the big man in the sky and still find something to moan about.
varun009
how could you not find something to moan about?
varun009 "You added too much water, I mean, jelly fish...what are you playing at? What's the point? What are they doing?"
Brackets
"They're 90% water!..Just add the other 10% and get rid of 'em"
If this had been 7 hours long...I'd have sat here for 7 hours quite happily.

+Keith Beckett Heh, I'd have come back and defended myself from this merciless attack months ago but I was too busy having a life. Thanks though.

Sounds good :) as long as you wasn't doing something too generic and 'low life-ish' like sat listening to something and been quite happy about it.
Same here lol. I watch all the xfm podcast there funny as fuck 😂
Michael Palin comes across as a true gentleman. He is so engaged by Karl doesn't speak down to him at all. I think they both really enjoyed the chat
I don't think Karl is an actual idiot. They dude is pretty bright. This all seems like a stick to me to make people laugh and create an interesting travel show..
Michael Fallon it would be a bit tricky talking down to a member of Monthy Python
@@DavidSmith-ef4eh "Karl, if you could have a superpower, what would it be?"
"But why have I been picked...? I'm just sayin, does anyone else want this?"
-
"He was saying the world is overpopulated. So the system would be: people live til 78, don't know how you can enforce that, right. But when they die, they've got a little baby in their stomach that then carries on.
"You sayin' it's stupid but someone emailed in saying "Oh yeah... that's pretty good.". Just sayin', if that's a no-"
"It is a no."
"I've been thinking what if we do it the other way, right? So if somehow we can inject something in like a body that just died. So, you inject it... in the temple. She sorta wakes up, right. She might be 77 and then, she'll have a birthday, she's 76. Let me just tell you the ending cause the ending works out better. So, when you die, at the age of..."
"78."
"Nine months. Cause that's when you come out. You're not scared of dying cause now you're a baby, you don't know what's goin' on anyway."
Could you say that again? Not an idiot? "Pretty bright"?
@@Nova-tu9xi He's a genius.
honestly, I doubt he enjoyed that. Got nothing out of the conversation at all.
Karl is one of the most honest people i've ever come across.
Emerald City you’ve come across him in person?
And so full of classic one liners... "his super power could have been killed with talc"
@@sammm186 exactly what I thought
@@sammm186 beat me to it.
sammm186 you can come across videos on TH-cam you fools , do you think coming across literally means walk past ?
Holy sh*t, I just realised, Karl is the perfect hobbit. He loves staying at home, creature comforts, hates travelling, always grumpy, yet deep down he has a strength and resilience for adventure. Please please cast him in any future Lord of the Rings
OMG, can you imagine his _There and Back Again_ travel diary entries?? xDD
Would part with the Arkenstone to hear Stephen read them!
Frodo after getting to Mount Doom: "This has been a wonderful treck."
Karl Pilkington as a Hobbit: "wonderful??!"
He’s also very protective of his ring
"Met this little Gollum fella, bit weird"
@@bl1398 🤣🤣😭
I love how Karl is so authentically himself. You plop him down with someone famous whom he likely greatly admires and he spouts out the same old twaddle. It’s refreshing
All I can think of while watching this is how hard Ricky is laughing at this.
AHH HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-ha-ha-ha-ha, HAAAAAAA!
@@jaidev777 play a record
Scrolled down to find and upvote this comment
I love when Michael Palin says "you've got a very vivid imagination" lol
Great shout. I watched it just now, and thought exactly the same thing.
ikr lol he was politely trying to tell him he's using his imagination the wrong way lol he's so polite and lovely!
I searched to find and like this comment.😂
Michael Palin is such a calm person,his voice is so smooth.I could listen him for hours.
I really did enjoy this video, the fact that we had a man who wasn't deliberately attacking Karl, just let him make his point. It was really good.
have you listened to Craig Parkinson's 2 shot podcast? They just have a nice normal chat, it's quite refreshing. Much as I find the constant baiting of Karl by Ricky (& Steve) hilarious, you do feel for Karl at times.
Thank you Matt, after reading your comment I looked up that podcast and listened. Very enjoyable and glad to hear Karl just be able to be himself with someone who genuinely just wants to keep empathizing and connecting with him regardless of what Karl talks about.
And I'm with you, it is funny listening to Ricky and Steve turn Karl's responses into something to laugh at (at his expense), but simultaneously it's cruel as Karl was not trying to be funny.
To me, Karl seems to be an example of people who suffer but are left undetected and unhelped. He strikes me as someone with mental health issues, a history of abuse, and/or maybe was born a particular way, any of which may be connected to each other. And I mean those things in only the most sincere way. It's a shame there's stigma attached to these terms.
And yet I'm struck by how incredibly witty, honest and confident he is. I feel it's like he has almost no ego to protect, unlike most people who shape their responses and public image around it. He brings a sort of candid and so,etimes pretty different perspective on things we seem to overlook, his own brand of wisdom.
@@mattgarbutt254 There's a few old radio shows where Karl is helping Russell Brand as well and they really bounce off each other. Russell develops the conversations and gives Karl the time to speak his mind instead of telling him to shut up.
@@jaidev777 I don't think karl is mentally ill, he's just different
Ricky had Karl wrong all along. That's why they're distanced now
Michael Palin's voice is magnificent.
"I realized he wasn't magnetic man. He was just sweaty man; his super powers could have been killed with talc"
hahahaha best comment ever
"That's the closest I get to multi-tasking.." Taking his phone into the toilet. Gold.
"His superpower could've been killed with talc" is one of Karl's best lines
Michael is not talking down to Karl, nice for a change
mm he’s a legit decent bloke
Hes getting to finish his sentences and getting his point across without Ricky and Steve ridiculing him straight away Palin and karl conversed and it was still funny
I really enjoyed this but if Ricky and Steve talked to him like this the pod would only be a fraction as good.
Not much he said going to ibiza is not going aboard
@Drew Peacock Palin about Karl's book: "I'll put that in the toilett as soon as I get home".
Michael Palin - one word - legend.
He really is. A true English gent. My favourite out of all the Monty Python gang.
nice chap no expert though
My foot - two words - leg end.
Karl Pilkington - one word - legend.
Michael Palin - two words - BIGGUS..................................DICKUS!
A great conversation between two very different but very honest people.
Im not trying to be an anglophile here. There are gentlemen the world over but Michael Palin is one of the few remaining true English gents.
Karl Pilkington : "I was cleanin' tiles yesterday."
Michael Palin "Were you?"
Best interview ever
Such opposites of each other, and they are both enjoying conversing with one another.
You can't blame Karl for disliking travel compared to someone else. When he travels, there are two assholes back at home trying their best to arrange Karl's trip to be a complete nightmare for him.
I don't think Michael Palin has anyone doing this to him while he's traveling... lol
Khechari I would love to see Karl just do his own trip on his own terms.
marshalt He'd probably pick the place in China where the littler persons are... again.
Well, who wouldn't?? That's the first place in china I'd go!
And Ricky and Steve owe the success of their podcast and radio show to Karl.
Khechari Karl went out to do his own show after An Idiot Abroad though. His show is called "The Moaning of Life" and it's Karl dictating what to do, etc. No "two assholes back at home" nonsense.
I think Karl and Michael should do a travel series together like when Karl and Warwick Davis did one think that would be interesting.
Sounds too cool to become I'm afraid :-/
These two should do a series together
That's a great idea. It's interesting when you have such different people together... usually on these shows it;'s either a boring actor with people like Palin or someone just like Palin so you don't get that contrast.
It would have been even more interesting if Palin tried to convince Karl to expand his thinking more... challenge him more. You could tell he was trying to kind of placate Karl.
Karl would drive Palin mental
lol he sure would
This should be a series. I'd happily watch these two for hours on end.
What I love about this is its a perfect visual representation of our dual selves; the Karl in us is unimpressed by anything, cynical and realises everything is pretty much the same. The Michael in us is adventurous and wants to experience new things as much as they can.
I love this.
Gay
Just the fact that these guys are in the same room together makes me happy. I could watch them chat for hours.
Was anyone else imagining ricky's hilarious cackle after every pilkington gem?
After listening to all the radio shows and podcasts, you just sort of wait for it.
fackinsaxy No.
gervais talking over karl is a labour.
@J J have u watched Gervais standup, The Office, hosting Golden Globes, Extras, Life's Too short, Derek, After life, Le Bureau, red nose day skits, his movies, celebrity appearances, Twitter, tv interviews with letterman, or Craig Ferguson...and found nothing hilarious in any of them?
@J J fair enough, each to his own. Although watching one episode of each of his best TV series doesn't give them much chance
Pity Steve Irwin died...Can you IMAGINE a nature and/or travel special with Steve and Karl? Irwin's exuberant enthusiasm and vivacity matched with Karl's complete cultural indifference and discontent?!
[Scene]
Steve: 'Ave a go at this! 'Ere's some locals enjoying a snack of fresh 'ot scorpions right off the barbie!!
Karl: But why.....why they eatin' that, then? What's, eh...What's the matter with normal food an' that?
Steve: I dunno, mate- they must like 'em a lot though! [Takes one and bites it] Mmm...Tastes like chicken!
Karl: So eh, why...why not just eat chicken? They're bigger, aren't they? I mean there's just more to 'em, innit?
Steve: There's not a lot a chickens in the desert, mate!
Karl: Pop on over to Cairo, there's a KFC.
Steve: ..........
+Lauren Weber Crying!
Steve Irwin was a fucking idiot. 5 minutes into his first TV program, I said to myself, "That stupid fuck has no respect for the animals, it's all about his ego. He'll get himself killed before too long." 'Nuff said!
I can just imagine the two of them walking down the beach in their characteristic gaits, Steve finding creatures on the beach and showing them to Karl, who just grabs them and lobs them into the sea.
That's not what Karl would do....
No true aussie fucks with a stingray.
"toilet is a big part of my life"
"it's something i look forward to"
"that's the closest i'll get to multi-tasking, that"
omfg my sides!
Poor Karl. He would not have fared well in US Army basic training in the 1960s. Toilets were arranged in a square U form. One was next, imagine close, VERY close, to the other. You could have reached over and touched the guy sitting, (shitting, can I say that?) next to you. As for squatting, that's how I grew up. Way out in the middle of nowhere before indoor plumbing. We spent our days, as children, exploring/playing in the woods. We didn't run back home to the outhouse, we squatted in the woods. I could have traveled quite well with Palen.
"It had an eye in it" I lost it when he said, "Where is the other eye?" Like that is his major concern.
It cracked me up when he started talking about what condition the lamb was in
Karl Pilkington consistently has me in stitches
great chemistry!
***** That needs to be done for Idiot Abroad 4! :D
An idiot abroad season 4
"A Fish ass and a Squid bollock." - lost my shit when he came out with that.
I was going to say that. You can't just let that one slip by
Steven Crane Palin sure did! :)
Such an amazing quote!
Ragora i read this before i saw it, and then i did and i tried not to laugh and burst out spit all over my phone haha
Probably the most interesting interviews I've ever seen with Carl Pilkington. I love how he doesn't try and change personality or try and act is if he's some sort of super cool Hollywood movie star just because he's on tv. Doesn't matter if he's talking to the queen of England or a homeless man on the street, he would still talk and behave to them in the exact same way no matter how big or small they are. I hate how some people think that Carl Pilkington is an idiot, he's not stupid! He's just got a different way of viewing life, and that to me makes an extraordinary personality. I wish there were more people with a personality like Carl Pilkington. It would make the world just that little bit more interesting.
who's this carl Pilkington you speak of ?
@@waynerooney1765 He's a friend of Carl Dilkington.
redbaron1001 ki
@@wriches he's Clive Warren's cousin
Rebecca De Mornay should be in another film too
"They're not nutters, they've been eating eyes for years."
Now there is a line for the ages.
Seeing it in print it looks like a line from Monty Python. Imagine it being said by Graham Chapman only with an exclamation point at the end.
@@0lyge0 I can hear it vividly in my head, intonation and all.
"Squat toilets..."
"can't do it..."
"oh dear.."
Putting these two together was genius
Now a travel show where Karl and Michael go travelling together would be epic
"This is my fwiend, Kawl!"
They totally should 😂
I want a video of Karl Pilkington and Richard Dawkins just talking lol
Epic!
Oh fuck that would be funny.
was thinking the exact same thing all week
Forza Rossoneri They'd get along fine, they're both atheists.
Forza Rossoneri Two people on each end of the spectrum with no clue how other humans work, talking about things humans do. yes. Hell yes. Make it happen.
Karl is so relatable. He's asks simple questions that you would normally think are silly and hence forget them. Genius comedy.
Both Michael of Carl or two of the most direct, pure, and honest people ever! Both lovable and both so direct in different ways. Wonderful to watch them interact.
Palin made Karl laugh!! :)
I'd love to see John Cleese meet Karl.
Two wonderful, so very different individuals having a chat and it’s absolutely brilliant.
Thank you so much for the upload.
Karl you are natural in the sense that you don't put on a front. there should be more people like you. if for whatever reason you find yourself in usa particularly Vermont id love to have an ale with you.
+bill brink Hah! Gaaaaayyyyy!
+bill brink Same here Karl, if ever in Canterbury UK!
The chances are slim, I wouldn't hold your breath
Two great people.
suddenly i have a lot of respect for Karl. eye opening.
Michael palin seems like a great guy too.
Just found Karl this year. Dont know how or why i missed him, literally my new favorite person. Just ordered my first of Karls books.
Palin is a true gent.
Karl is such a legend, he meets Michael Palin and talks about chipping shit out a toilet
A very good interview. Michel very kind , Karl very honest,and God damn funny. As others have said, the two traveling together would make a fabulous video.
Awwww! I loved this!
Michael Palin is so sweet to Karl! I wish this was the entire segment
This is one of the best conversations I've ever listened to.
michael is such a good sport, and karl is on his game, as ever. these two should get their own show.
Karl is the first celebrity to put his ego to one side,that is the magic with him I dont even think he posses one.
''As nice as that looks it's still a squid bollock.''
Karl's version of 'don't judge a book by its cover.'
"It's sort of fish arse with a squid bollock shoved in" - Hahahahahaaa!!!
Couldn't imagine these two together!
sexually?
Karl with Stephen Fry like this would be interesting.
He’s hate Stephen fry
Could have listened to that all day. Travels from different perspectives. Loved Karl’s DVD’s, very entertaining and MP, of course is a true legend.
Oh my god, I only just discovered this, how did I miss this?
This is going to be a treat
I want a TV show were palin and karl travel the world together.
Woah, fancy seeing you here. Small world.
@@Keyecomposer yooo dee! small world indeed haha can't beat bit of Karl Pilkington!
I love how simple Karl is, and he doesn't mind letting people know. Also he seems to keep himself to himself, he's quiet but makes everyone laugh. He's ace
*Watching karl chat with michael for the very first time its like they have known each other for many many years*🙂
Imagine suzanne walking in on carl squatting over the want ads...
“Alright”
Every conversation Karl has ends up in him being interviewed
These two together are brilliant. Need to make a show together
This is amazing, both Karl and Michael have travelled the world, both in the world of comedy, both legends, yet totally different to eachother...love it.
I was overjoyed when this popped up, I could watch this for hours
😊
two of my favorite people in the same vid, Palin seems like he'd make a good friend for karl
I lose my shit every time Karl says "pottering about".
Keep it wrapped up in newspaper then
Thanks for this - two people who have slightly different views but really KNOW travelling of the oft-beaten track. You could see a connection of understanding between the two.
2019 August. This is superb. Like comments from maz an if it was 7hrs long I'd still watch all. Totally a great meeting. Karl is just himself even in the presence of legends,. Lov it
this should be showed in school.... quite a contrast, both with valid points. quite interesting.
This is so lovely to listen to.
Two of my favorite people in the world. Grew up watching Palin in the 80’s doing traveling shows. Many years later I learned about Monte Python. Then there’s Karl, everyone loves Karl.
Great chat! Was cool to hear them talk about and compare their travel experiences 😎
I am so like Karl. I always avoid uncomfortable places, prefer quiet holidays and other people, relations mock me when I turn down foreign holidays to stay home. I'm also the same age with the same hairstyle
steven ewart Karl quote
"its not a style"
Penthox "It is nature, that's exactly what it is. This bit fucked off and this bit stayed."
Great to see an absolute legend of comedy sit down to have a conversation with Michael Palin.
What a combination, could have watched this for hours, 10mins went like 10secs , brilliant👍
... love you dude, the fun, laughter, and joy you provide to people. ✌🏽❤️🙏🏽😊
I dont think Michael quite knows what to make of Karl.
He said in a separate interview that he honestly believes Karl enjoys travelling more than he thinks, otherwise he wouldn't of done 'The Moaning of Life'. I like the fact he's genuinely interested in everything Karl says, even about the smallest things in life.
@@Harvester236 Karl was pretty open that the money is a factor too
@@vampmode9132 True, although in the old podcasts he mentioned the best job he ever had was as a postman. Regardless, Karl is the best entertainer.
@@Harvester236 paper boy!
Karl is Zen
Andrew Seddon No he’s not
The conversation I didn’t know I needed!
i loved this. so much i could comment on but just want to show my appreciation.
" thats horrible that " when he sees himself in the mirror lol
Two legends together ❤❤
When I was a toddler I used to watch both of them on the TV. Big inspirations
This was laugh-out-loud funny. But charming, too. Quite wise, between the laughs. Made my day. Tnx for sharing.
Karl is the type of person that will tell people things that everyone else is to scared to say
This man cheers me up no matter what ,its his expression .. natural genius :D
I love listening to Karl talk....I always get what he's on about and he talks to everyone the same. I'd love to see a show with Karl, Karl's dad and Brian Blessed talking 😁
oh man , it was worth the viewing at the very last moment . Hilarious . Have to say that bowel motion and cellphone use is about as close as any of us get to multitasking ! Priceless .
this is like a meeting of two great minds.... on completely different ends of the spectrum XD
Karl Pilkington, you've gotta love him.
This is gold. Cant believe these two got together.
This is Dynamite, the best I have seen in years
Deleted scene on the Dhall sailing out of Dubai. "Sit down, Michael. Have Monster Munch..."
"his [magnetic] superpower can be killed with talc" That's why Karl is so... interesting to watch.
*towel
+Opus 0 ...no...it's talc. Talcum powder. Maybe actually listen next time before making wrong corrections.
+Opus 0 Shut up.
***** I know, you idiot. That's why I told him to "shut up". Look at whom I'm responding to.
+varun009 look to whom I am responding* IDIOT OMG
Anybody could have a conversation with Karl for days....he's just such an easy going, funny down to earth bloke
Equally amazing or more, to Karl's unchanged attitude no matter whom he talks to, Michael's cool and respectful attitude towards Karl is utterly charming! Love love Michael.
