They actually thought that was a good idea. That was the one thing they didn't laugh at. Watch again

@@uhjeff3651 They said it was a load of bollocks and impossible to do

It existed then

Again with this dumbass drivel. He didn't "invent" anything, at most he predicted something which is waaay different from creating a technology that complex, and even then you use Virtual reality with a heavy device within the four walls of a house to immerse yourself in a story or to similar a real life activity. If you don't see how completely different that is from putting on a couple of glasses the size of Ray-Ban while you're driving to see inexistent graffiti on a wall you shouldn't vote on anything ever

@@henemy195 its called AR

“What happens?”

"I'm doing aids!" "....you just wait a minute" Jesus Karl xD

Great observation that 😂😂

@@maximnikolaev6627 "I'm doin' restless leg syndrome!"

I love that the "owl" they use is actually Karl's animal-invention version: the owl-faced, slug-juiced, lettuce-eating thing that hangs about on the walls of people's houses with its peacock feathers on display.

That's not VR. It's Augmented Reality.

@@PrideDefiler potato potato

@@dechezhaast po-tay-toe pa-taw-toe

Do we? There's a growth in people drinking smoothies, but they're not a new thing and it's not as though nobody eats anything anymore. Let's not get too carried away, just remember Karl's number five.

And he gave me the lasting imagine that everytime I listen to Genesis I picture PHIL COLONS 😂🤣👊

😂😂😂

Can everyone but the Big Bang people leave?

Hope you're feeling better now

Me too. 20 years of depression

seriously, that part kills me! I love that Karl stopped and was like "ang on a minute"

It feels like when Karl does the bits where Ricky is pretending to be a character he forgets that he is in fact just talking to Ricky Gervais and not a fictious creation because he asked as if Ricky would know what actually happens and would go into greater detail

Scrimpton is an awful word. That is Karl's point. He was right about this, the space of nice sounding, available words has contracted. Karl definitely read about this. The good example is drug names, where pharma companies pay people lots of money just to come up with drug names.

Karl always had a point😊

@@ChristobanistanKarl never has a point

@@noka1979 he was good at coming up with things vague enough where you could fill in the blanks to make it say basically anything. like mad libs.

He’s not wrong

He's right but, it turns out the fruit has gotten weaker, not us!

@putsome basilonit Look up how fruit has been degrading in protein and vitamin amounts since 1950, it's been 'weakening'.

@@Godwinsname Do you have any articles for that?

@Matthew Hopkins It's not only brilliant. It's genius!!!

Matthew Hopkins on the contrary!

@Matthew Hopkins never call Karl's ideas dumb, we all know some are bad, we heard it enough from ricky

The language thing might be true. Who knows in 500 years English may sound completely different.

Funny. Because Karl was Actually right and Ricky in grand scheme of things looks like a bit of a nob

Not just Huel; think about juicers, smoothie-makers, juice bars. I wonder if this episode was recorded before or after Wall-E came out, because in the distant future portrayed in that film, all of the characters drink flavored meal replacements in cups.

@@juno1752 Wall-E came out in 2008, I’m guessing was before since they started doing XFM together in 2002-2003 but I don’t know when the podcast came out. But I doubt Karl has seen Wall-E 😂

AR glasses exist, but people don't spend all their time in them. Many of Karl's ideas are stuff he read about I think.

He said because we'd run out of words to use. Emojis are just lazy so you don't have to use words

AR, not VR.

And VR like Oculus

@@TxWIll and metaverse...

DJ Caimen Kinder yeah pretty much

Caimen Kinder shut up

no its AR kinda like VR tho

"Augmented" reality. VR glasses that add layers over what's really there.

This comment has aged very well

Rampage bros he’s ears looks like he’s excited to see Karl 😏

He looks like that in real life!

One of my favorite bits ever was that KP Plumbing sketch. I still piss myself with laughter everytime he says FCK OFF.

KP embezzles from the company accounts

On the contrary, in my experience the less educated someone is the more readily they cleave to things based on no evidence.

conversely, the highly educated are the most indoctrinated in the mainstream orthodoxy

@@NeoStoicism how would you tell the difference between indoctrination and literally just being able to understand what evidence looks like?

akin to the difference between scientism and the scientific method

Even though he admits to his poor education Karl still thinks he knows everything . But it's quite clear he doesn't.

"Eyes that pop out of their head... Steve..."

@@TortureWorld he's done ya and he's not even here!

Not quite as Karl described/Stephen interpreted - with AR we see a mixture of real/virtual but using Karl's glasses the real would become the virtual (visually at least).

Yeah, because Google Glass was such a huge success...... 🙄

@@MLennholm google glasses aren't even what Karl described, text on a screen isn't changing your surroundings to live wherever you want to, but yeah Google glasses were shit

Depends on the person. Personally haven't met many that go overboard on emojis unironically. At worst I've seen had a person replace a word with emoji once and that's it.

@@tranidite Hop on tinder and try to get a date, half of the conversation is emojis. (I'm aware that's not the most scholarly place either lol)

Karl*

I rarely If ever use emoji's. If you are an adult you should use your words.

@@pauliewalnuts2527 There's a difference between should and reality

And 2.35% people who have trouble with percentages.

But not much scrimpton sadly.

AR not VR

That would be ar, mixed reality vr is when you see/film a person in a vr program/game

The infinite monkey theorem....

Yeah, no idea what it is but maybe part of it is how he says it like it's the weirdest, most foreign thing ever. Which it kind of is 🤣

They'll stop making trousers, then knickers wearing folk would feel cold, then they'll wear longer and longer knickers and boom we got pants again

The infinite monkey theorem...

@Kyle Robinson Me too :D

but why

Covid too, in a way...

Yes Karl predicted something that's been theorized for like 40 years in sci-fi movies

Karl*

That doesn’t mean it’s not a stupid idea lol

Also blending food. Our food has absolutely got softer, it’s why some people have jacked up teeth. Our jaws are weaker and they’re only getting weaker. Absolutely spot on there

@@jakeapplegate6642 Still, Ricky said it would never happen.

I haven’t seen it but I wonder if Ricky was secretly writing Karl lines for the show? I wouldn’t put it past either guy to be putting on an act.

@@SphericaI funnily enough they actually addressed that very thing on one of the podcasts. Someone emailed in saying they think Karl is basically a creation of Ricky and Steve’s and they responded by saying they couldn’t possibly create someone so ridiculous 👀

KP LOOKS AFTER ME

Dude, Karl is an unapologetic ignoramus. Government is overstocked with such types as it is.

***** Google glass is augmented reality, lol.

***** Good for you.

***** I'm happy for you.

Google Glass isn't even close to what he is talking about you tool!
