"New" XFM Audio Uncovered

 


I've listened to The Ricky Gervais show on XFM so many times, I pretty much have it memorized. But now someone's gone back and re-visited the original tapes(?) and uncovered previously deleted audio.

It's mostly stuff like throwing to commercial, but let's face it, how often are you going to get new XFM material?

Karl's Only Goal

Although I shan't make a habit of deriving blog posts from old emails sent to me, this one seems to make sense.

"The Ricky Gervais Show" on HBO is halfway through its first season and has been successful enough to earn a second season.

But before there was a show on HBO, there was a podcast. And before there was a podcast there was a radio show on XFM, a London radio station.

After recommending the shows to my friend Justin, I shortly thereafter found two new emails in my inbox. Showing trademark enthusiasm, both emails were from Justin, both were about the same subject and both were sent within a span of 8 minutes. Having just started the "fifth" episode, he sent a link to the audio used in the video below. He said, "You gotta listen to it again, I think it's my favorite clip."
