“Lighten up, love!”

I love U Ricky Gervais. Come to Italy ASAP.

Ricky seemed quite snobby and clueless about the life of a stand up. Most people when they start out do loads of shitty gigs for little or no money. If not for th exposure then for the experience. I tried it myself and was lucky enough to be paid as early as my fourth gig but I worked with people who gigged for for for years. Ricky was already a successful comedian before he tried stand-up so him talking about gigging to most stand ups is like an actor who got a hit single on the back of their fame talking to a grass roots band about life on the road. I still respect the man, he just doesn't fully understand the subject.

Ricky we know you don't need the money anymore but stop telling us every time mate. Sheesh.

10 points to Gryffindor if you can count how many times can she say “yeah”

Brett is boring AF

Jesus no one's going to be downloading these ten years on. Same stuff every episode! Some good moments in each but lots of repetition.

mildred!? you still got thrush? we wanna make some flat bread

yeah.... yeah.... yeah.... yeah....

Everyone in the comments seems to be hating on this episode of the show, yet personally I thought this was one of the best so far. Its interesting, entertaining and isn't filled with preaching about atheism. Last episode (07) he sounded like he and Ed were not really friends lots of dick-measuring contest comments it was funny but the air seemed thick with competition... At least he sounded like Brett and Roisin get along with him! I like this, it feels more natural and insightful. Don't get me wrong, I will listen to all of these as I like Rickys humour if they continue this way. =)

This is a particularly boring episode

Was Ricky already a bit famous when he first did stand up?

Such a pity Sirius XM is supporting the likes of Steve Bannon (Seth Rogen refused to appear there) and such a pity the great Ricky Gervais would rather block people who speak out against it than give a reason why he is not leaving the show in protest. Could it be money? Entire career making fun of people and now he's playing the liberal and helping Bannon. When will we find out he doesn't like animals. "Oh I can't have a dog cause I'm always away" yeah right...

yes i guess so, but mostly for laughing at how little they know about politics. Good thing he never named one of his shows on a subject he admits in this he "knows nothing about" lol

I'm sorry Roison is worse than Ricky for not finishing sentences and getting ahead of herself and assuming everyone's got her point so stops talking and moves on before finishing.

46 minutes in I think Ricky is going to change the topic but no, he says "right lets talk about comedy as therapy" Ah. No no no. Please stop talking about stand-up and or your jobs.

Nothing wrong with the guests as others have tried to say. The guests are fine. I just think it needs a LOOSE set topic every week OR in some way or another they need to stop talking about the miniscules of stand-up every week So Much. It doesn't need much too make it good. Trust me Ricky (if you see this). A loose set topic and you can still do the stand-up talk as well(but not quite so much).

how are the guests fine? how about a dissenting opinion? i actually think he should stick to what he knows and have different comedians on to talk about comedy but more in depth. Strange to talk for so long on the subject and not fully delve into the area of censorship and Silvermans and Schumers downward spiral and Tosh's rape joke etc. Of course he could keep pretending he is a philosopher and have Stefan Molyneux on to embarrass him lol

28 minutes on Ricky says "lets talk about bad gigs we've had." I'm like "no, new topic PLEASE PLEASE, a different topic" We've had this same talk for the last 4-5 weeks. Please do a different subject every week or something or have a subject for 30 minutes every week and then do random chat about whatever

Also bit confusing but was he famous before or after stand up ??

I really like Ricky and all the guests he’s had on so far but hearing a bunch of comedians sitting around over intellectualising telling jokes like it’s the most important thing in the world really makes me roll my eyes after a while.

Love Rick but he needs to talk less and listen more.

eurghh i hate it when people put voices on. this brett guy talks like a child trying to sound cute and humble and he's using the cadence of a bunch of other celebrities and comedians but i cant but my finger on who at the moment.

I'm not sure if there are other fans here of both podcasts, but having Russell Brand and Matt Morgan back together and them having the same chemistry, as funny as ever, is highlighting how bad this self-indulgent, tedious wank is, and how vital Karl was to the podcasts. Without him and Steve this is just Ricky's ego running wild, talking over people who endlessly agree with him and it is boring. Treat the world like a head.

no mate this is too much fun, literally NEVER have i read and posted so many comments on a YT vid, but i just think back to what Rick said on the pilot about wondering if he still HAD IT and would talk about the big issues, I knew at the time that Rick knew jack shit about politics and the culture war and it would descend into a liberal echo chamber but fuck me this is even worse! How about YOU tell me what you enjoyed or got out of this episode cos you didnt mention anything in your comment ;)

1. Get better guests 2. Get some structure 3. Talk about more than just stand up 4. Cut it all in half

Too quiet.

Oop there it is at 2:25 ... Ricky reminding us for the millionth time that he didn't actually start out as a stand up as he was already famous! Sorry, Ricky, I love you and admire you greatly but this podcast is getting a little bit stale... The first few episodes were okay but it's starting to die.

Brett Goldstein is so fucking hot - I’d let him ride me like a bucking fucking bronco! 👊🏻💦❤️

Sweetpea Sugarplum one of the few comments not shitting on these podcasts and its about having sex with one of the guests😅

If this is a podcast about comedians dissecting comedy, that's fine, just present it as such. It seems like some of the people commenting are "obsessive haters", some might be, but many of us felt we were promised something different. It's fine having younger comedians on, but the podcasts have been better with David Baddiel and Robin Ince on because they don't have this reverence towards Ricky that younger comedians have, so there's more rapport there; they're not afraid to give it back. That said, I understand this is a weekly thing, so sometimes you might end up having the same people on.

Fans need to chill, it’s the start of something new. Just calm down.

These episodes are free, right? Seems like some entitled folk feel ripped off for some reason.

The Milk Cult of Sisyphus . Why would someone pay for fake positive comments? That would be like paying for a drop of food-colour and hoping it changes the colour of the seas. These comment threads are always full of the same types of people. It’s rare that anyone mildly satisfied has a voice - hence why I commented. As for being paid to do so, I wish. It would be infinitely lucrative!

Lugh Summerson i had been expecting good banter and other fans of ricky to banter with on this comment section we are both disappointed.....

Without getting into how boring Ricky has become, how awful is the audio quality

Is Brett taking a nap? I reckon he's experimenting to see if the host will actually ignore him for the entire duration, or at some point will he realise.

Ooph. I hate to admit this, because I've always championed gervais with everything he's done. Including this. But, yeah. The criticisms are pretty spot on here to be honest. This has already become stale Rick. You need to start diverting what this show is to keep it fresh. Start going on the attack against hack comedians or something. That'll be something everyone could get behind. Where are the jokes? Where's any insight into your personal life? There's nothing to this. You're just repeating the same things every episode. They're once a week, it's not too difficult to think of something new to bring up in that time.

This series started off with great promise. Now it has become monotonous and stale.

Why did he think that a radio show without Stephen and Karl would be any good? I'm bored of these already.

Every episode is boring

One of the better recent ones because thankfully Roisin was talking over Ricky so she could actually say something new. I think at this point we could just have recordings of Gervais from previous shows stitched together and no-one would know.

He won't read them but can the people paying him millions to make these tell him what all these comments are saying. ANOTHER hour talking about stand-up? I can't finish this... I'm off to listen to the old xfm podcasts.

I dunno, I wouldn't have expected anyone to ignore what was happening in Nazi era Germany in the late 30s. One of the greatest strengths of comedy is to poke holes in the all-powerful and therefore reduce the power they have over people.

Weve had two episodes of ricky showing off to a scientist and the rest talking about comedy with his friends. Stuart goldsmith has done like 200 podcasts of comedians talking about comedy in depth and behind the scenes of comedy just isnt very funny, i like ricky but he talks always about how he loves to laugh and surrounds himself with hilarious people, this podcast is not evidence of that.....
