About this listen
Part I: Halloween
Ghostly drivel abounds as Steve consults an SMS-based oracle, Karl experiences a kidney probing, Steve visits Bristol, Karl becomes a Godfather, and Ricky tells of some lighter moments at the morgue. (Includes a CD-giveaway contest that has already expired - sorry!)
Part II: Thanksgiving
Karl is unfamiliar with the American public holiday mentioned in the show's title and launches a campaign for a calendar-free society. Ricky explains the origins of Thanksgiving, prompting him to ask Karl who might be a good choice for a present-day pilgrim father. Steve brings up the sterling work mice are carrying out in the name of medicine. Karl's hypochondria comes to the fore as he describes a recent visit to a leg-rubber who prescribes a toe-based soporific. More readings from Karl's diary; UFOs; the will to live; Madeira cake; Relative merits of gay and heterosexual men's pornographic magazines; Oxfam's extended product lines; and Karl is concerned about the shortage of new sounds. Plus there's a (now defunct, obviously) competition to win copies of Karl's book and the new CD box set.
Part III - Christmas
Karl reflects on the year past and singles out an unlikely highlight; Steve stocks up on yuletide essentials; Karl advocates an anarchic Christmas and complains about his domestic chores; Karl's diary draws to a close with revelations of bothersome footwear, cravat-luggage, not-so-current affairs, bees, beds, and worry-holes; and Ricky provides an emotional exit en route to the orphanage.

What made the experience of listening to The Podfather Trilogy - Season Four of The Ricky Gervais Show the most enjoyable?
Having listened to the vast back catalogue of Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant and Karl Pilkington including their XFM shows and Guide To series, this was an obvious purchase.What was one of the most memorable moments of The Podfather Trilogy - Season Four of The Ricky Gervais Show?
Honestly the interaction between the three friends is the main reason I keep coming back - that and listening to the zany yet often insightful nonsense that constantly spills out of Karl Pilkington's mouth is probably the highlight. That and Ricky's laugh.Which character – as performed by the narrators – was your favourite?
I have to say all three - they work best when they riff off of each other.More nonsense from the mind of Karl Pilkington..
