Lots of chat about gays including the significance of handkerchiefs in certain pockets, an overheard conversation and Karl’s view that they jump about a lot when it comes to partners.

Karl gets confused about a Ronan Keating song which leads to a discussion about what you would do if you had one day to live and apparently scientists have made a chicken with teeth just because they can.

Karl talks about a monkey in the Guinness Book of Records which has the most protruding eyes of any mammal but reckons Steve should hold that accolade instead.

Goggle Eyes

Ricky: Is there any Monkey News? Karl: I've got some but just because it's not that good something else I found out that I thought i'd share with ya. Ricky: Go on. Karl: I was looking in the Guinness Book of Records, right, coz I thought they'll have somethin in there about monkeys or somethin, right, and there's a little monkey, I think it lives in Asia, right, there's loads of them live in Asia. Ricky: Might just be travelling but yeah. Karl: And something I found out, I don't know if they've got it right and that's why I wanna bring it up, apparently it's the mammal, right, that's got sort of the pointiest eyes, eyes that pop out there head, Steve. Ricky: (laughs out loud) Karl: Now the thing is, right, I thought that's interestin. Steve: Yeah. Karl: Apparently it's the biggest with the sort of goggle-eye type thing. Ricky: (laughs out loud) Right, yeah, go on. Karl: Apparently they come out their head 1.6 cm. Ricky: 1.6 cm, what you mean they protrude? Karl: Yeah, they protrude from the head at 1.6. Ricky: Ok. Steve: How long? Karl: Have you got a ruler Rick? Ricky: (laughs out loud) He's havin a go. Karl: 1.6. Steve: I'll tell you i'd be a little bit annoyed if the monkey's beat me. Karl: Well I don't think it has. Ricky: (laughs) Steve: That's what I'm hoping. Karl: Is there anything we can, I mean what's 1.6? Steve: Drop your trousers. Ricky: (laughs out loud) It's about three quarters of an inch. Karl: What do you think? Ricky: (laughs) I don't know. Karl: Have they got it right or what? Ricky: (laughs) Steve: Maybe I should come down to Monkey World with you next week. Karl: So anyway that's not Monkey News that's just somethin that cropped up. Steve: Sure. Ricky: (laughs) I do know once when we were playin pool in the office I think Lucy was your partner, it was me and Ash versus you and Lucy and you were havin trouble coz his glasses kept slippin down, so Lucy pushed his glasses up his nose but the glasses touched his eye (Ricky laughs) Do you remember that? Steve: Ehh, yeah. Ricky: He started it, he started it. Steve: Well you were the one who joined in. Ricky: (laughs) I know and I feel bad now. Steve: Yeah. Ricky: (laughs out loud) It makes me nervous when he goes "yeah", play a record.
