2025-03-21 23:38:45 +0000 UTCI think Karl had been on drugs before the start of this episode with the complete bullcrap he was coming out with, more than usual. Either that or he had suffered a recent head injury.

2025-03-21 20:07:43 +0000 UTCOoohh.. I just heard about them on a nature program or something.. or might’ve been the news because I’m sure it was saying if you buy or get full fish you should check in the mouth so people aren’t eating them🤨x

2025-03-21 19:36:26 +0000 UTCThe one I seen, I think it’s in certain water you get them. It’s not just the throat, they’ve been found in ears and other places😳 The way they get them out is holding something close to wherever it is and grabbing it with tweezers when it pops its head out😥😭x

2025-03-21 19:31:44 +0000 UTCThe bit at the start of Ricky with the list of animal facts, he uses that list in one of his early stand up shows. He mentioned it is from some random website

2025-03-21 18:57:24 +0000 UTCthey arent replicated. they are from a series called the ricky gervais guide to...history, science, medicine arts english etc etc all audiobooks. afew stories were recalled by karl that he had already spoke about during the xfm shows but it wasnt replicated deliberately. The ricky gervais audiobooks are all free now on youtube. it was a series that came out around 2010. :-) I love this animated series, could listen to them talk round a table for hours lol

2025-03-21 17:52:30 +0000 UTCThere are parasitic isopods that eat and replace the tongues of fish and eat their food as they swallow, perhaps the myth comes from that

2025-03-21 17:34:45 +0000 UTCSo a lot of these stories were, supposedly, spontaneous on XFM (radio). Now they are replicated for this show. It's a bit bollocks.

2025-03-21 16:58:50 +0000 UTCThe thing that came to mind when he brought this up was a tape worm- I’m sure I heard they used to starve themselves to get the tapeworm out which sounds horrific 🤣🫣 Now we just take some sort of medicine or tablets that kill it I guess? 🤷♂️

2025-03-21 15:16:27 +0000 UTCI think the throat cancer thing he was talking about was some type of parasite that sits in the throat and comes out a little bit when you put food in ur mouth. I remember hearing it years ago.. the guy didn’t die tho. and wasn’t told not to eat meat😑😂x
