Extremely annoying to listen to, most of the time all three men are talking at once, and when they’re not it’s simply radio silence. Perfect audio to use as a method of torture and to bring on a headache, but that’s about it.

The best parts of these are Karl Pilkington and when Ricky and Stephen argue with one another.
