Story
There is no bigger public health story now than the collapse in youth mental health. The numbers are terrifying and dominate our headlines. There has been much debate over how we got here, and what to do next, and bestselling author and social psychologist Jonathan Haidt is at the white-hot center of that discourse. Haidt has spent his career speaking wisdom and truth into the most difficult landscapes—communities polarized by politics and religion, campuses battling culture wars, and now the perfect storm contributing to a public health emergency for Gen Z.

The Karl Pilkington Show
I enjoyed this introductory season of Ricky Gervais' podcast. By the end, you're happy to hear Ricky admitting that it should be called the Karl Pilkington show as Karl ends up doing the lionshare of the talking. Karl's quite the eccentric personality.
I don't want to give too much away, so I'm being purposely vague. It would suffice to say, however, that this season isn't really about Ricky Gervais' comedy, but instead showcases his ability to see what could be entertaining, and his ability to steer it in that direction.

Listen on an empty bladder
There are lulls in the laughs, but that's a good thing because my bladder can only hold so much.
Although it'd be nice if things could be so funny without someone being made fun of, and I sometimes wonder if I shouldn't be feeling sorry for Karl, I'd give my left one to a crazed chimpanzee to get in there with Steve and Rick for a bash at Karl.
I drive to work wishing that I had more than a 30 minute commute and that the first season would last me more than a workweek. I had to get the next seasons just to keep laughing my way into work.
I highly recommend it for those who like to listen to funny people ramble.

Funny if you like the ridiculous
I found this and the other 2 series mostly hilarious, apart from sometimes getting irritated by the way Gervais is so screechingly arrogant. But Karl is wonderful to listen too...far too funny to be for real. His simplistic attitude to life and technology is hilariously refreshing...for example, his assumption that lawyers in the UK wear wigs in court as disguises.
If you don't find humor in the absurd, then Karl's very British attitudes are probably not going to have you laughing out loud. I personally can't get enough ofit, and would gladly pay for many more series!

Very Funny
I actually laughed outloud. Where Ricky and Steve (creator's of the office) found their co-host Carl Pllkington is unclear, I am never sure if he is serious or not, I do know that the three of them having a conversation is one of the funniest things I have heard in a long time. Gervais gets a bit loud at times, and a bit harsh with Carl. Really great stuff...

The BBC gone mad
This program is simple fun at a great price. It's much like listening to your favorite disc jockeys carry on without commercials or songs to interrupt the banter.
Ricky, Steven and Carl report and debate the merits of everything from world news and scientific research to sucking up to program sponsors. "Monkey News" tends to be a favorite topic, including whether a NASA chimp would be plunged into suicidal depression after being replaced by human astronauts. If contemplating such off the wall issues sounds fun, you've come to the right place.
While there are a few explicit terms thrown around, this show is by no means as explicit as a Howard Stern Episode. (Think more of the irreverance of a Monty Python show.) If anything, this program reminds you of the sheer joy of brainstorming, a good argument and solving the world's problems over a cold beer.

Brilliant!! Laugh Out Loud Hilarious!
I don't think I've ever laughed so hard for so long in my entire life! Off the wall and completely mad, Karl Pilkington's unique perspective on various topics is not only mind-boggling, but laugh out loud funny! Silly, ridiculous, and utterly entertaining, the Ricky Gervais Show is brilliant! I was completely won over.
