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? I think we would all agree with Ricky Gervais, who once said to Karl: "I love your brain." Hope you enjoy this compilation of Karl's weird brain, strange life, and fatuous musings. CHEERS!

BEST OF Compilation of Karl Pilkington's SONGS OF PHRASE feature, for which Karl combines pieces of songs to re-enact "popular" sayings from the show. Originally, Karl called the feature, CROSSWORDS, because he got words and sort of crossed 'em and that... The name changed to SONGS OF PHRASE in response to a fan's suggestion. Listeners try to guess all of the songs that the well-known phrase is composed of.

PART 1 (of 6) of Karl Pilkington's ROCKBUSTERS (a cheap knockoff of Blockbusters). Not only was this one of Karl's longest running features (along with Monkey News), but it was also voted by fans as his greatest XFM feature of all time. Karl Pilkington gives a cryptic clue (it's usually nonsense) and the initials of a famous band or artist (he sometimes gets the initials wrong), and listeners either call, or as the feature developed (unless they were experiencing technical difficulties), email in their answers. The winner gets an arbitrary assortment of tat, often including a pointless DVD…
