The podcasts came after the end of the XFM shows. Karl left the world of radio stating that he didn't enjoy working as a producer. He debated a number of new jobs including being a dog walker and possibly returning to his old job doing a paper round. Fortunately however he decided, along side Ricky and Stephen, to move the show onto the new format of podcasts and has never looked back. The overwhelming popularity of the show made podcasting a phenomenon. This post includes seasons 1-3 however 4 and 5 are in a later post.
