I hope Karl's well.

Today I happened across this "debate" on banks. Karl's in his typical top form and the host (Mike Graham) flails rather shamefully.

China murders children - I knew it! It's obviously part of their inscrutability... Well done Karl, the guy is exactly what you called him.

It was good to hear Karl back on tonight - it was the perfect icing on a big tasty talkSPORT cake tonight. The best show for ages.

Karl's on LBC right now. It's good to hear him blethering on again!

Glad he's still around, he wasn't in good health last time I heard him.

Sad news, comrade Karl has passed on. Always great to hear him on GG's show. Also loved the warmth George had for him but their fights were fun too!

thanks for letting us know, that's sad to hear - but he had a good innings and was still kicking against the pricks into his 70s (even 80s?)
