Does anyone know what the fuck this is?

Is it a Karl Pilkington channel that has been subsumed by Gervais to do weird ranty blogs? I have no desire to listen to Gervais talk about anything unless it's bollocks with Pilkington, but some random thought slices from Karl could be funny.

Amazingly, Karl's choice of camera angle here makes him look like his face has been cropped out and placed on a green screen background:

Yeah it was a xfm/podcast type youtube channel, but started aggregating Gervais livestreams that started during lockdown.

Jesus shit who wants to watch those??

I watched a few of the early ones as there was bugger else to do and hoped it might be more XFM in style, but it was just the same old boasting, animals are magic shit.

To answer your question though, fuck load of people tuned in to watch these. After Life sycophants mainly.
