Published by Deret Samer Productions
Fan-led archival & restoration project dedicated to preserving, reconstructing and repairing defective audio; rediscovering & cataloguing missing segments; and transformatively curating original compilations to bring new creative life to the Xfm radio show with Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant & Karl Pilkington. The trio hosted 4 series (2001-2005) of this pointless, mind-numbing Saturday afternoon show on now-defunct Xfm London, a shoddy tinpot station. An independent project to preserve culturally important material. Not affiliated with Global Media & Entertainment Ltd. or its subsidiaries.

PART 13 (and final installment) of a proper BEST OF compilation of Karl "The Brain" Pilkington's perfectly spherical head, which his face is slightly too big for. If you blended up Karl's brain and fed it to someone, would it make any difference? They wouldn't even notice, would they?
