Fladseth - #223 - Peak performance

Episode Date: January 24, 2025

En perle av en ung sketsjegruppe er innom og snakker fag og piss. Sjekk ut Peak TV på NrkSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I'm not wondering, the atmosphere is so good here. The girls are playing with the podcast format. Yes, they are. It's peak performance on visit. It's just... We've never met before. No. It's a humor group.

We've never met before, but humor is a universal language. In all its glory. For not being so cosmic. Is it? First question. Do you think there are... You said right before we went... There should not be such a question and answer. And then you introduce that format at once.

Let me just follow this one now. Do you think there are comical out there in the cosmos, in the big cosmos? Other... I mean islands that are comical out there in the cosmos, in the big cosmos. Other... I mean, islands... That are comical. If life is first found on other planets, if there are comicals out there? I don't know. Is that...

The closest thing is natural law. Where there is life, where there is intelligent life, there are also comicals. I think so. Yes. It's very... Maybe it's us who are doing it of humor and want to say that. I think maybe I'm lazy, but I think there's a lot of slapstick on the face. And then you guys overestimate it a bit. I think they play a lot with their weight.

They have a different type of weight that they play a lot with. They have just discovered the gravity. So if I jump and don't put my legs back on the ground, I fall. It's slapstick. Slapstick is gravity humor. There are so many big differences out there in space, that they have completely different possibilities out there. When it comes to gravity slapstick. They have a different form of irony, in a way. They have a different form of humor than what a way. They have a different form of humour than we do. That we don't know about.

That is not irony. If we had met them, we would never have understood for a million years that this is humour. We would have thought that this is a thousand years old man. And take their lives with one hand. And then it's just a comic book. Or a re-acted comic writers? And then there are kings who kill... what are they called? Kings who kill... Slaves, I say.

You mean people who kill the king? No, kings who kill those who are no longer funny. The hoppers. We are the kings, they are the hoppers, and we just kill them. Yes, yes, yes. The But we don't understand what they say. They come with a spaceship that is painted. For us it is very scary for them. This civilization has thought about how they can be the least possible... I mean the most possible weapon. We send the most fun spaceship. We have a comical mother.

This can't go wrong. They have a lot of scary speed. They send the round, sweet thing. They have speed like of speed, but they send a round, sweet thing. They have speed with a kind of heiming and stuff. Creepy. And then they go on despite the aerodynamic. Right into the soup we came here now. Peak Performance, half of the humo group.

And there was Maria here. Hello! Elina is over there. Hi, my voice is like this. Suneva? My voice is like this. Suneva's voice is like this. And I'm not used to three guests in the studio.

No. Are you nervous? Not nervous, but we have to think about the dynamics. We have to listen. You know this. You have worked with the stage art for many years. Listening is our main value. It's very unusual not to say yes when others talk. And you have to put that away. Sune, what's the deal with that name?

You say that perfectly. I'm working on something really good. But it's fighting against several other names, if I may say so. Suneve and... It doesn't sound logical at all. We have started calling her Signe sometimes. But I don't know if Signe likes it. We haven't talked much about it. When I was younger, I hated it. But now... No, I think it's very cozy.

Signe. Signe. It's mostly the singer who can sing. But you can sing with Sin. Now it's very... Like an internship. But you remind me a little about my own sketch, old sketch group. And we are six. Clueless numbers.

Little sketches on each. There is always a fight over the sketches. How old are you? 23, 24. How old were you when you started? Same as this. Some were in that age. The sketch group I'm sitting in is the group I've made the show with Sølvrikker, and later with Legende, and a bit different. That's really fun. Very nice group. We are a big group, and we are very different.

It's hard to meet physically, because everyone has their own. When we get it together, it will be good. Is that because you've started to have children and grown up? When we get it right, it will be good. But is that because you have started to get the kids to grow up? It doesn't help at all. No, I don't hope it will happen. I'm looking forward to it. But did you have sleepovers and film nights? We have had a full package of huts.

We are doomed. We have had all that stuff. Workshops on the cabin trips and all that stuff. It will be soon. But it will be a new era. You have now nominated the Humor Award for the best humo show. Thank you so much. A really funny show called Peak TV, which is on the TV show Enark,

far away in the NRK-game. It's a narrow, absurd, small humour sketch series. It's really funny. Thank you so much. It's for the humour fan, in many ways. We wondered if it actually meets people who just do it with humor.

Yes, but I have thought about it a lot myself. What you feel is funny yourself. You get shocked by how difficult it is to meet the audience from time to time. And that you get a little upset about it and so on, but you just have to stand by it. You don't want to bother yourself to make it available. You don't want to sit with a sore stomach because now we don't listen to ourselves, we only listen to the people. It's rare that we have that. I think it's not bearable to keep it like that, I've been hurt by meetings with channels and shit and shit all the time,

thinking that we have to meet broadly here, and we have to think in numbers and series. But trying, after all, you've been screwed into meeting halfway there somewhere, and then you start to doubt everything possible. But it's just a meeting with TV, but we also do a lot of stage stuff. You are going to be on a sketch show, on the Krapopop Park. It's a beautiful festival here in Oslo,'ve been there for 10-15 years. I remember I was there when I started with Stand Up. Really?

It was a great pleasure to be there for the first time. I've always had the goal to bring voices into the humour, which aren't so mainstream, which are more unique and different. So on Friday at 9 o'clock, you have tickets again? I think so. They are very expensive tickets. That's fucking worth it. It's not just you. You are going to be there?

Yes, but the show, the sketch show, you have the best sketch makers in the city and the countryside. Yes. So you have sketch artists running around the country. Yes, a real review show. That's it. I'm really looking forward to it. It will be fun. I'm looking forward to it too. Are we going to watch it?

I'm going to watch it. No. First row? No, absolutely not. I'm going to stand behind him. Armin Korsh, the old expert. It's like all the comedians do, they stand behind, without a ticket, with beer. And then they go straight into the applause.

I wondered, in the movie, when they are in the concert, when you see a movie, there is a famous artist and the main character becomes friends with the artist, and the person is standing behind the stage watching the concert. Why is that a status? Is it a status to watch from the side? I don't think you necessarily have to watch that person, but isn't it nice that the guests are behind you, on your side, on your track. And then he sends you a message. I thought maybe not to go. And then he comes in and just stands in the door opening and sees the one on stage. And gets touched. A very common scene that goes on is that the artist sees what his dad is coming today.

Yes. But he is never there. He is full or he is not there. He is full or he is not there. He's full, or he's not there. And he thinks that it's all a success. But it's still not enough. You need to get a sense of him. Right?

I've always thought it would be fun to come and see a younger comedian. All the way back and have a pee. Smell a little bit of the pee and then go again. Was it there? Yes, I saw the pipe smoke? I made a legend about you. I saw the pipe smoke behind me. And when you see the smoke you know you're laughing. Then it comes down.

It's like a ring. Hello? How did you two meet? How did it turn out? We went on a little bit via the review schools. Of course. Nissen and Foss and so on. You are Oslo girls, I'm the manager. Nissen and Foss girls?

Yes, Borsvare Maria and Rudd. Like Sarsborg? Yes. Oh my God. What can I say? It's nice. Maria is the joker. I'm the joker. Thanks. Is Sarseborg the oldest city in the world?

No, but in the world. I think it's the 4th oldest in Norway. That's a bit cool. That's a bit cool. Tønsberg is the oldest, I've heard of. Oh yes. It's the two I mix up. Sarseborg is the name with Hallen and Sarsborg and the stuff.

And in Østfold, there's a damn old bastion of a lot of fort and old old buildings. That's pretty cool. Olav Haraldsson came and took over and the Christians and things like that. They had the whole kingdom down there. It's all red. Plank town and... And there you came and you are the rare group that comes with perspective from the rest of Norway. Yes, I feel like the one who... Is it too hard to say? Because I'm the one who looks at the news the most.

Are you the smartest group? No, not so smart, but... You are older than me. Yes, I am older, yes. How did you get involved in this? I was involved in improv. And then... We played improv for a week at Høstmania.

A bit illegal, but... Høstmania is the old, occupied part of the city of Oslo. We slept among thin people. And rats. You slept there too? Yes, we slept there. What rebels are you? You are a total rat. I was a rebel for a week at least. And then I went back to use wands and take care of myself.

So you waved goodbye to your father-in-law and said Now I'm trying to succeed in the big game. It could have been Maria who sprayed the battery and filled the bag. I could have been in Osmania. But it was only in... I found the girls there. I found them. They found me. They kicked you out so you didn't become a part of the unfortunate sadist statistics when you end up in the hospital.

There are very few who come out with jazz hands and beat themselves up. It's rare. Because there are so many kids in crime, right? It's like that. But there are sports or... what do they say? They say it's hockey or drugs. That's what they say. Or jazz hands.

Something died out. Per Inge Torkelsen, who you are for the kids to know who he is. A savage comedian. And a rebellious old guy. He always said, Let the kids hydroxy the kids for alcohol before the sports take them. I don't think it's stupid. It's not stupid.

Isn't that nice? You choose to be cool before it takes you. You have to start putting in. I think, I understand that it's not alcohol and it's nice to do some sports. But it's a very boring, organized sports today. I can't even imagine. I think it's so boring. Do you dream of sports when you grow up? Do you dream of football?

Yes, I dream of that. But there are also a lot of other unorganized things. But now it's very organized. We have become... A theory I have is that after the New Year's Eve came to Norway, when we have news all the time, both... You started with TV2 New Year's Eve before social media and all, and net TV shows. But now it's like this. We have news all the time in our train, and it's only the bad news that sells. So if you had a tiny kidnapping case then you were like, get it out of the newsroom! So we have become terrified. We think kidnapping is very common.

So now parents are following the kids to all these organised trainings. It's impossible. The white car stuff. White car stuff! There were so many things. Lomemann. Lomemann and white car. And when you saw a white car, you ran the other way.

Everyone knows someone who meets Lomemann. Yes. Don't you believe any of us? Everyone knows someone who meets Lomemann. And I mean that Norway did a bad job to make him scary enough. Because no one thinks of him as scary enough. He wasn't a man with a back. He didn't fly for that. He had a little back.

But no one. I think he did the worst things. But he's the man with a back, Avne. It's too cute. It's like the kids understand what's happening and feel sorry for him. And then they don't agree with it. Poor man. I remember mom telling me that he is a man who is a little sad and lonely. And he is not dangerous.

The kids know it's wrong and they know it. But they feel sorry for him and should just take it down there. And then they laugh like they're in a coma. And then they say, oh no, I thought it was candy. And then it was like that. Don't tell mom or dad, just go on. And they didn't get any trauma either. They helped an old man. He liked it too. He liked it.

He liked it. And to see his eyes smile. It was worth it. I think we have it nice here. You met and did a stage show. Yes. You didn't see it. I wanted to say that I was a stage show. Yes. You didn't see it, right? I wanted to say that I was a bit jealous, because that's what we did in my old home.

What's your name? Peak Performance. I've never seen it before. I've become a father and a father. Congratulations. And you sold the muck, too. Yes, there were some extra shows. It was a small hall. It was an old church room, which has become a dance scene.

And then we sat in the chair. It's stupid, it's so stupid to ask. I know very well about this show. And there was so much talk about it in the industry. And I heard so much good about it. Idiotic. What? Idiotic to ask.

Yes, wasn't it? Yes. But when you know something very well. Then you ask anyway. Then I could have an advantage to be like, here is one who has done research, who knows your guest well, and then I would have solved it with a question I absolutely didn't need. But it's a good technique to let the guest talk about it. Maybe that's what you wanted to do.

I agree with that. Linmo does that. And in podcast, this little conversation, we almost judge us. And how stupid it was. It's also part of the podcast. We're in the podcast, Matic. It shows that the podcast world is also wrong. Yes.

And you just sketched and made something violent. Yes. We really wanted to make something that... There are so many... We spent 24 hours making it. We spent a week writing it. Throwing things together. That's what you like, as we said.

I'm a bit fond of that. But I like both. I love how good the actors are. For me, it's the top of humour. It's well played humour. When you take something very fjolt and play it very seriously. So it's 10 out of 10. You're very good at that. You're a very good actor. I'm very ferocious and I play very seriously. So it's 10 out of 10.

You're very good at that. You're a very good actor. Everything I've ever seen is based on that. So I'm not very fond of humour that is one after another. Where the band is going to play and the climax is giving me zero. But less that I have a function

than that I'm aware of it. It's very meta and weird. But it often made that there was a man who was most with NRK, and didn't understand the sketches, because the replies are not really funny. It's like the game is fun, it's like the face. It was very difficult to explain. There was no such premise as you are so concerned about? It's like... These TV channels and channel people, they are not the best performers we have, they are not the best comedians we have, but they understand how to earn money to it's a bit like that. And they work to bring in the series.

Even NRK, who you think doesn't necessarily think that way. Is it the state that says, okay NRK, you should meet as many people as possible. Then it becomes almost propaganda. Meet as many as possible. And then we lure in the people into it. The channels want to hit as much as possible, and we have a lot of viewers. And then they analyze so much, at least nowadays. So when they talk about the premise, it's about those who haven't seen a sketch, those who are very little into humor, or in series and such things, who actually just watch it again and again, and then they see, right?

Did they see any humor 45 years ago? They have to understand what they are watching. So that's what they are based on. Yes, that's it. So... But it's hard to put yourself in the head of something that's kind of untrained. When I look at it, I see... Very... Solvent way...

You have that one... You talked about the classic 17th of May breakfast plan. Who will make eggs, who will have bread, etc. And it's very nice that it's so familiar, but it's done in a British, up-and-down, Downton Abbey-like way. And that for me is golden, because everyone agrees that humour is about surprises, that you are just taken by surprise and that you don't see things coming. You have to just guide the audience a little. Or those who are not so fond of humour, and lure them in first, they just hang along with something,

and then it turns into something strange, and they get involved. That's what matters. I think many people have said that they laugh and don't know why. And they laugh because they laugh when they can just relax. That's fun! But we are a bit like that today, that we need to understand things to a greater extent, maybe. Yes, I think so. I felt like before when it was us and there was a washing lady on stage and we were going to fool around a bit,

there was no reason for that. It was just a bit funny that the format was broken and that she who washes behind the scenes also gets some time. You didn't ask yourself how good was fun, you just stayed. But it's also a bit like that, if you look back at the sketch humor from, say, KLM, if you know what it is, or Harald de Stenor and Veslund, if you think of the old ones, or Melonas for that matter. You can see that it was a bit absurd and strange, but it was in line with Norwegian review tradition. And it was very easy to understand when to laugh, when to laugh, here you should laugh, here you should laugh. And also with Norwegian stand-up, you can see the development very clearly. It goes from very premise, setup, and then comes the punch.

Very clearly where to laugh and when to laugh. But you can say that Norway is a young country. We had a storytelling tradition, but it hasn't changed in many years. Before someone changed the humour out of the 70s, 80s and 90s. Before that, someone had kept monologues and stood there like... I'm in the garage yesterday! But it was just a trend dialect. Maybe it was the monologue stand-up. A trendier dialect. And a low-sterned one on the back maybe? But we are also standard, and have just changed from being very basic and everything,

it was the same every time, and to set a punch, to now it's a lot. Now it's gone over a meta, anti-humour thing in some places. Because you need to develop it. And the world is developing, so it has to happen here. I feel that it has to be a form, and then the world develops, and then you have to have irony in the old form, so you can ironize that again, and then it's just an eternal run until you maybe start again.

I wonder if we move into the moment when the irony dies. Now we will have character straight on. But that was a period. You can almost say that the irony died. At least what we remember easily in time was that everything should be very ironic. It felt strange and tight in that period. I'll bring that back. Yes, it is. But I think it's about having a free, original part, stage art in Oslo in particular, is very innovative. And I feel like we are in the world class of innovation and innovation.

But we have a commercial part, where you have to have money, and then you have to have the whole gang, hundreds of thousands of people. And then humor starts to become demanding. When you are going to impress humor lovers and those who have not seen any humor before. If you had shown the room bags what humor is, then you would have shown what we showed. I might judge them, but I think slapstick. Yes, that's what I'm saying. You are just It was a very strange animal. It was something that couldn't stand. It was just a flat trigger.

And it must have been very scared. That strange sounds come. Help! Everyone laughs. It's a mariat. It's in all animals. It's a flock animal. The worst thing you can get is to be supported by the flock.

So if you get scared, avoid getting scared. I think it's because of the flat trigger. The worst thing you can get is to be supported by the people. So if you get led, you're far from being led. I think we're talking about the latter. Self-reliance came long after humour. Yes. Yes. It did. It came in recent times.

In the very modern times. Self-reliance came only a few years ago. Do you think so? Yes, actually. I know very few old people with a lot of self-reliance. No, I don't think so? Yes, actually. I know very few old people with a lot of self-esteem. I don't think so. But it makes sense that the first ones started to play the constable, to parody the authorities in society.

Oh, they're so brave and funny to look at. And then you start fooling yourself. I think so. If you say to an old person, Yes, you're sitting here with your big, old ears, I don't think... I don't think the host, Dvendri, is completely on... It may be about the Roast culture. This is made of love. I'm talking about your big ears. It's just made of love. I know many at my age

who don't quite understand Roast or that you can fool around with those things. It's more like a childhood trauma. That it's hurt, it's bullying. So those things, that balance is difficult. That's why you have to put on text posters and stuff like that in Roast. Everyone is in on it. You shouldn't look at this if you don't like it. But I wonder why we think it's gotten bigger and bigger in Norway, the Roast thing.

I personally think it's gotten used to it, but it's like... It seems like a training thing. I think I'm very bad at it. Bad at giving and taking it in. Maybe I'm not so self-irritating. I feel more about giving. I think it's like, okay. Because it's really fun, and I think it has to be hard and real too. And I think it's a bit fun, but at the same time it's a bit unpleasant.

I get a little sore in my stomach. And if I'm roasting... I feel I'm roasting you my stomach. And if I watch Roaster, I feel like I'm Roasting you, Elinor, sometimes. On what? When I say, like, the mother radio. That's a joke. That's a joke, yes. But I feel like it's a game. It's a mess with the Roast genre. And then you play a game where we pretend to be angry at each other. I feel that Roast for us is very not. We don't do that.

No. I noticed that there is a tendency to make an ironic way around Roast again. There it gets bad again. It's a bit funny, but... It's a bit... She just says nice things. And that's very funny. But it's another example of how humor is necessary. You have to do a lot. Go to a quite drastic step to keep it going.

It has to develop. It has to develop. It has to develop. You have to do a lot and go to a quite drastic step to keep it going. It has to develop. And Rose is not very new. I think it's a relatively new genre in terms of humor. But it comes from, imported of course, from the US. It's been there for many years.

But it's pretty new to come to Norway. And it's become quite big. And it comes from that the comedians are resistant. When you've taken all the dope you can get, now we have to have the heroin. Now we really have to say the worst things about each other and make jokes. Then you get longer than that. In the hunt for new things. And you do that for fun. Do you get any longer than that? Yes, I don't know. In the pursuit of new things?

Maybe the next step is physical harassment. Yes, violence. Violence becomes humour. And then there's slapstick again, and then we've started over. A kind of humour MMA thing. Someone who absolutely doesn't want to be beaten, is thrown into the ring. To beat to death. It can only defend itself with humor. While everyone stands around and points and laughs. Yes.

Ah. Animal effecting with people. Yes. And it's funny. Yes. I feel Brain Rot is the new big one that can be a little humorous, which is just absurd, but still bound to some trem terms or something we know. Like you make.

Like we make. I think it will be. I think there are some things that come back as a motive, that go in a way, cyclists. And one thing I notice, and that is the character humour. We never get tired of it. But there are always new ones that take over the role of someone who has been. When I grew up, there was Ekbo, Stoltme first, and Espen Ekbo, who got their tremendous success. And then, in a way, it's a new era, and then Vågnes comes out and takes over the big roles in character humour. And that always works.

It's perhaps the most timeless. Because it's not connected to... It's not a parody of a current person or something. Or a news story. It's just like that. Stereotypes. Yes, which always exist. And they're always a bit different. But if you look closer into the characters, you'll see that they're always based on some kind of stereotype.

The insecure, the broken. They go through and when it's been that long, you can do something quite similar to what it's been. Because it's been that long, and there's no requirement on the basic personality. Yes. I think being Russian is a bit of a comeback. Speaking of Harald Einstein. Just that he speaks Russian-Norwegian. It was fun with Noctua. The dangerous Russians. It was enough for me, it was fun. And the dangerous Russians. That's what we're going to start with.

That's it. I think that would have been good today. He was very funny and had improvised a lot around it. But I think that was fun because you hadn't seen it before, I think. And of course it was because it was a very exciting gay-political voice. Gay-political voice. Gay-political voice. The end of the war. But I think that a character like that,

which is a satirical character, must have more than that. That's what I think, with Midbart. It's what makes humor difficult. And requires more of it. There are bigger demands from the industry. I say that first when you start the environments. That you have to develop it for each other and for yourself.

And that's how humor develops. To meet the people who are whole. It's a lot that you want to make each other laugh first. Or as friends. And that you need something as a comedian, when you work as a comedian, that you need something more to make you laugh. I can sit and watch things that I think are good and fun, but I laugh, I almost have to fake laugh, because I have so much work to do.

I often understand where it's going. And then it's liberating to see people who are so absurd or anti-humour-like in style, that I actually manage to see it coming. Yes, yes. But that's just me as an actor. Who do you think is good at that now? I have been very weak at Vegard Tryggesheit for example, who has had his style where I sit and listen to how he puts up... Now he has a stand-up show going on. I hear how he puts up the premise for the stand-up bit, but I don't know how it will develop and how it will end. He has a relatively narrow field of thought,

but he has worked hard to get into this strange style. He hits very wide. Because the whole of Norway knows who he is, and digs into his strange things, even if they don't understand what it is. So he has actually got to that. There are many who just make something weird where you don't understand anything. Yes, of course. I feel mostly in stand-up, to be honest.

Marlene Stavrum also goes as an example. She has a weird style, in which she has just stood in and worked in. And then she's also... It's probably been like that. First and foremost, you're in a state of shock. And then maybe handwork comes at the same time. At the same time you're in that style. And then it's a completely different expression.

I don't know. I said we shouldn't talk so fast. We shouldn't do anything else. Damn. Ask the question number two. I have a question on the block. I have to pee a little. I have to pee a little. You have to pee. Then we're back in... I don't know if it can be used as a break talk, but I don't think so.

No, I don't know if it can be used in a break talk, but I don't think so. No, I don't think so. We're back. We're back. We're talking about... Just to give you a recap, as you haven't heard. We talked about the colour purple. And then we talked about clothes. And then we talked about hair to a hair style, something like that.

We're not taking that with us. No. We're going into the story. We're going into the We have a couple of lyrics writers who come with different scenarios. Is it a sender? Yes, one of them has even been a guest. We had a kind of scenario workshop. And that's Adrian Høg, and I think it fits well with you. It's the scenario of being caught in a sitcom.

Are you ready? Yes. Are you ready? And here I wonder if you should play, if we should take one on one or if... We'll just see how you take the words in. If you are together or if you are one on one. We'll just see. You are trapped in a sitcom where everyone talksag words and exaggerated humor. And then I have actually put in, because Adrian Høg, the one who has to write the scenario, there is no big sitcom with him. He has got it with him, it's a thing.

I look at myself, the old big success against the breast. Do you know what it is? Yes, but I haven't seen it yet. Doctor, what's his name, Holmes? Did you see that? What comes after that? I've seen Karl see that? The one that comes after. I've seen Carlo Co.

Carlo Co, yes. Then we'll take Carlo. The point is that this is the time when it was live with the audience. Live on tape with the audience. There were backstage. In Mot i Brøstet you had... If you thought it was the audience, you look at the stage, there's a chair in the middle with a staircase up and a staircase down. This is the house. The Karl Revere, played by Nils Foght. He has two leisures that just leisure with him. It's an elderly man, Arve Opsal, the legend, Egon Olsen. I love his humor lessons. This was the best people knew when I was little.

Stairs down, and there lived Arve, the old Henry in this series. Was it like you saw the basement? No, it was a different room. No, no, exactly. that you saw the basement? No, it was a different room. No, exactly. The old On the second floor, Nils Svendordin lived. Already a respected theatre actor, but he was more into doing the more commercial projects. And later he did the Rema Thusen commercials. At the same time he has done a lot of national theatre, like an all-rounder. He is happy about that.

He is going to have a smear on his brother's face for himself and his family. And take the jobs there. What is the runo? It is a trio. A young leibor who kicks the shoes in the hallway when he comes home from the shop. He works in the cashier at the shop. And then he has the old ones. They live together. Not in harmony, but in kindness. There's a lot of fighting. And then they have their... Nils is with Trine, and they drink coke and eat chips and look at things.

And then you have Karl together with Målfrid, played by Siva Nytte and Andersen, and a legendary revue environment. And Mother Ratine Ilse, to Elena, she came in. And to her as well. That's the characters. Such a type sitcom is not something we have in Norway anymore, unfortunately. But say that it is such a type sitcom. Family happiness. I could have said that! Family happiness! There she has it! But it's not live audience.

No, but it looks like a fox. The problem is that it's not audience. Maybe they would have felt what's actually fun. And they would have improvised more. We have forgotten... Of course... Should we make a sitcom about making an audience? Yes. Because you can't...

If you are in a TV show today, you have warm-ups, which are like a preview of the audience. And if you look closely at the total picture, you see that the warm is pulling the trigger. And here they clap! Now you have to clap! And now you have to play! That's what I call pissing on an old art.

What the hell is that? They're always so nervous. They sweat, they're so thin. And they don't have many days left. No. They are holding on. But you are caught in a sitcom like this. Now you should be pretty clear.

It's not a specific one, it's just one or two sitcoms. I think we should take a specific one. Then we take Karl & Co. Karl & Co. we take. Do you know Maria Lugnowson? Wasn't that the one you talked about? No, it was Mot i Brøst. But the only thing that goes back, Karl Revere is also the main character in Karl & Co. And there you have, if I should go and buy Karl & Co.

Then you have Karl Revere, still a businessman, but he moved to Lejle in the West Bank. He had a house, but he was still... Is it like the Joey ripoff? That there's a Joey series coming out? Yes, but Karl Reuhrug came before Joey. But it's a spin-off, yes. Absolutely. Spin-off is what it's called. But often a spin-off is based on, not the main character, but another side character. Like Joey. Okay. Karl Revere, still a businessman. He likes the good things.

Luxury life. He lives in an apartment. And he has one very random friend who comes in. He doesn't have any old friendships. And he has one random friend that comes in. He doesn't have any old friends, Karl. He is taken to the roof with very bad contacts, that he either has as a tenant, or in this case, here are people who run into him from the city hall.

The guard master Smesta is there almost every day. And he dresses like hell, the best player in the team. Harald is the best player in the team. The best player in the team. The best player in the team. And then you have Ulf, who is also a kind of a player who lives in the team.

And then you have the sister Kamrin. A lot of shit. The point is, you play in this Your sister will start to talk shit about you. The point is, you play in this sitcom. In character, you have to convince the ignorant viewers and the other characters that you are a dick and need help. Here it comes. Are you distracted by the editorial, or is consequence is the hand-over, not less. How do you solve the situation?

Or how do you solve the situation? How do you get out? And here it is like this. This must happen. If you start talking about this before the recording, you will be taken by surprise. This must happen like... The words must come out, so that you can be scared.

You understand? So we are in the sitcom, it's real for the others. They don't understand that they are playing. You are just considered actors. I am an actor, I am caught in the show. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor.

I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor.

I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor.

I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. I am a kind of actor. A live audience is watching, and they have peace and no danger. They laugh and clap and have fun. And the other actors are not even aware of this situation. There is only one who is... In modern times we have got a sign in our hands. Like Britney. I might have gone in, been the watchman called out, Enel, Enel! I went in and played normally. Because it's a bar and then... He's starting to have...

You're playing with Esta, right? I'm playing with Esta. Enel, Enel! And then he has... You get through the mandal, so to speak. You get through the mandal. I get through the mandal. Because it's always sour.

And then I had asked to post a letter. Oh, okay. Yes, with some information. But I had to... It doesn't say Manus, but you just choose to say it anyway. That was a bit of a surprise. Isn't it a bit like that, the way you can control things yourself? Or that you can record and stuff?

No, it's not that much for Manus. You have a whole new concept in the scene. And besides, before the Monday, I have a letter here. Then everyone behind you would be like, what the hell, a letter? When did that come in, Manus? You can say, cut, we'll take a new recording. They can do that too. Say that you say that when you're in a hurry. Cut, cut, cut, cut. Sorry, I'm sorry. What do you mean by letter? Sorry, I read... You shouldn't say. I read it wrong. We'll go for another recording.

Very strange, but okay. Sorry, sorry, sorry. Can you do this? Yes, I can. Now I know. Okay, sorry. We'll take... And here you go. Sorry. Karl, come on now. Enel! You'll get home on Monday.

It's gone in, gone in. Pick it up. Hello Carl, Carl! Hello. Old businessman. Good Fyllik, my watchman. Hi! Not Karl-Marie.

No, he's actually the seller. Oh, he has it. You get home on Monday. Blung, blung, blung, blung. You get it on me. What do you have on the table? Is it some kind of business? Are there any contracts? Contracts, yes. I'm going to sell the house. No, no, no. Give me the contracts.

I had taken the contract. Did you show that you had? I kept the contract. With an open plate. And I had played out that I was going to break the contract, because I didn't want him to break the contract with my thumb against the palm of my hand. That's a sign of help. Help and break the contract and take the hand over the thumb. And that's how I broke the contract. And that was the way I could contact you. And that's the trick.

You? Great. Thank you, Sineva. What do you think? I want to make codes. Make fun. You want to make codes? Yes, but more like... Subtly. I laugh like this. Always laughing. Three cards, three long cards.

– They laugh a lot too. Are there any characters that laugh a lot? – If you say you are the most important, the sister at the time. – Is she like that? – No. – An old legend played, now unfortunately deceased. She died young, the mink got her. – Oh yes. But she has some smoke in her voice, doesn't she? – I would like to say yes, but I don't think she does. But she is a floating artist in her own state.

And always the problem is the male people. The male people? Carl, couldn't you and I... Wait, is she your sister? She is my sister and she laughs a lot. Carl, couldn't you match me at voice meeting with one of your friends? And then the audience understands. That was my best friend. The audience is happy, they see this often and just...

Why does the family have such a strange voice? And then it happens again three times. And then at the end, right before I say the punch, you have a look out in the audience, and my look is like, here, but they don't see it. I'm scared. I'm scared to look. A strong smile. A strong smile.

I didn't understand it yet, but this is actually a competition. I have found the solution. Strict smile. I didn't understand it before, but this is actually a competition. I have found the solution. Very good. So you are caught. You have time to study the art of the morning. But everyone can... I thought everyone could do the SOS. The morning. I could never... I can't. I don't have a chance. We have a story. I've seen it before.

I've seen in reality that there are some sounds coming, and no one understands that it's Morsje. Yes, but that's the only thing I can see. You see something blinking. I remember that this is public in Karl and Co. They're not so very... They are not necessarily so trained this morning. But they can do the Beatles. Help! I need some more help.

Help! I need some more help. We'll keep it up this morning. I think it's very nice. You are doing it very well. It's fun to listen to. For a neutral audience. And you too, Marie. Good introduction. Good inspiration. Good suggestion. Let's see here now. Okay, here is my plan.

On the side of this series project, I start to get friends in the police environment. Okay. So you have so much free time, you think? Yes, I think so. You are a whistle. I don't try so much, but I am a whistle. But just hanging out at the pub, you think? Yes, I think so. I don't try that much. I'm afraid of you. You can put it that way, but I have to say that I take it in the evaluation. But if I can't do that, then in that case, while I'm playing some scenes, I start to look like the one that looks the most like I can save myself in the audience. That's what we're talking about.

So I've planned that. And then I get into the scene for a heart attack. A fictitious heart attack. I play scene, get a heart attack. A fictitious heart attack. I pretend to get a heart attack. Do you go for muscles or brains? Which one should save you? I go for muscles, yes. The biggest man in the audience. And you've flirted with him a bit before?

Yes, I have. Just a bit in the ticket box maybe. You think that if there are only pushlings with men and one strong woman, would you still go for the biggest of the pushed men? Then I would go for the strongest woman. Only Per Ordrur and one Brekkus or a Vektøfer? If Brekkus and the brain sits on the left wing, maybe, close to the middle. Imagine how flabby Brekkus would be. But suddenly she's my cousin. And I've invited her to a place right next to the middle.

I get a heart attack on stage. It seems real. People start to stream it. Who's in it? It's in here. I fall right on the ground. I start to hyperventilate. I know how to do that. I'm going to learn that. I'm going to watch YouTube videos on how to get heart attack. If you have access to it. I've said yes, shit yes. I haven't said it. I haven't put it up. We'll see. Maybe I'll find some old books in...

Or some first aid kits. There was a Norwegian lexicon. Yes, it's starting to turn. Ordinary diseases. Heart attack, heart attack. Put it down. How do you play it? And then I get dragged out, because the ambulance is coming most likely.

Or some... I have to get help. I think I'll die. I think I'm dying. That's very good. And while I'm being carried out, I grab the rope! And then someone breaks, or that person, and then she's like, help me, help me, help me! And then... But then it's broken.

No, because I can't see it. It's just a whistle. Oh yes, and I grab the rope. And it can just seem like I'm getting spasms or something, because it's far away. Then you say, help me in the ear, Ennis. Help me, I'm a gizzle. You have to help me. Regardless of break-ups or not, you have solved your task here. Because you have managed to make everyone believe that you have been attacked.

I'm actually doing that. You are on your way to the ambulance. You are on your way to freedom. It's a relief. When you get to the hospital, it's possible that they have one mafia outside the door. But you probably have all the possibilities to explain the situation when you arrive at the hospital. When that is said, let's see, Maria, what were you doing? You were playing?

Yes. I think it will be difficult for the audience to see. Yes, because they don't understand it. And remember that the cut is also with the conspiration, so they want to remove that cut. They want to get a total picture instead of a f***ing hand. They want to get a close-up picture of that lady. It was supposed to be a close-up of that contract. But they go over the total.

And look straight into the camera. They are obisque. Of course. Suneva, you have a very nice morning. Both are good. It's smartly thought. But it's too subtle and it won't be necessary if the results are saved here. So it's Eline who will win and take her phase on how to do it. It's like a hand made style.

It's completely hand made. Right. What's yours? But if you didn't... I'll take your pants, because you copy hand made style. You've already made it. Someone is going to say in the audience, this isn't Karl & Co. I've seen this on Handmaid's Tale. We haven't had a scenario for so long, but I've said before that the phase is to just suddenly break on from the dialogue and say Okay, this is the situation. I am Gissell

and the back is Søren. And of course you have to make everyone believe in it because it's hard to go over and believe in when you're led by a sitcom. So it's demanding. I think it's a mental thing. It's easy and brilliant. You have to play very

correctly before. And when you go over it's very clear that you're not the character. Exactly. That's important. You have to go down. You have to be emotionally engaged. It's not easy. It's not difficult. It's about your life. You may start crying. It's not a play on words. It's about your life. You may even start crying. It's not a play on the screen or real tears. Be so nice to me.

I don't have much responsibility for the audience. Maybe you should have said, is it true? Is it true? Is it true? Is it true? It's not just a matter. This is life. If you don't believe me now, I will get killed! Or you can take one in the audience as a whistle. Run out, take the smallest girl in the audience, stand with her and maybe have a weapon. And shout, I have a whistle! I have a whistle! And now I have taken a new whistle. And then the little girl,, even more so. Oh, oh out the plans when I asked you questions.

And found new solutions. Very nice. That's very good. Congratulations. Thanks. How often do you think of Roma-rich people? That's the question I actually have. I think of it more often than anyone has talked about it. For those who don't know, I was this thing a few months ago. Men often think of Romeric.

How often do you think of Romeric? Personally, I think quite rarely of it. But I think of the Second World War and Hitler. And I will remember that. Do you think of the Roman salute? Yes, the Trump-Hitler-Hillsen. I have thought about that a lot. Or it was in Moscow, of course. And I can't... I want to see all the angles. Yes.

But I have seen how, have you seen how tired Møsk is? Before he does the salute, he looks... I don't understand what he's going to do to make it so bad, so hot in the audience. He has had enough subtle free-rides to the outer right and the groups. I don't think he would have deliberately done that. I'm a bit lucky about that. But he's so funny. He's so... I think he takes something, because I've heard him in podcasts and such, when he's very introverted and very down. I think he has a bit of depression tendencies. So I think he is on some substance that makes him...

Guaranteed. I think so. Have you seen him jump on Rallis? And his stupid jumps. With his arms split up. How boring is that? It's like a boy. Turn off. Turn off.

Have you seen his naked face? He could have just come out of his sci-fi test suit and been all raw and turned off. Turn off. The f**king eye. And his belly. You've seen naked pictures of him. Or naked, but without an exaggeration. How is he, Magne? He looks like a robot.

Yes, but Elon Musk is clean. But he doesn't rest. He doesn't rest. We're just standing here for a while now, and we want to ask if we want a strong USA. Military, economically strong USA. We are a puppet state. Or we have a free USA. That's what the voters are talking about over there.

But freedom for them is just like, I will do what I want. I feel that freedom is... Democracy and freedom religious freedom, freedom to be who you want, to love who you want, and all that. That is disappearing now. She is the beautiful priest who came to the last challenge. She is now almost death-prone. She gets so slacked from Republicans and even moderate Republicans who just do whatever they want. Freedom, yes, that's the term I kind of used. Yes, very used. It's just that I have to be able to make my own business and earn as much money as I want.

And no one can mix that up. And if I'm rich, I have to be allowed to be that. That's what freedom is. And my freedom to limit others' freedom? Yes. Hello. Hello. But it's a question of definition that is very pragmatic. We can't say what freedom is for half of the US, who lives in a trailer park and think that marriage between man and woman is like that. We are not going to have any muslims here, we are the country of God.

That is the truth for everyone who has voted for Trump now. And we don't see that whole country, because we are very against the progressive, which is the extreme case, but you see that you get conservative forces at your feet, and then you can change the constitution and get a police state at the end. It's not that far away, do you feel that way? No. It's a bit scary. It's really scary. On the other hand, if the US has been robbed from each other economically and strength-wise compared to China and Russia,

then you will, and Trump, or say that NATO has been robbed into pieces, as some people talk about, it is very much the NATO now, then the more totalitarian states in Europe, and you already have England that has left the EU, and it's very difficult to separate from each other. And then Ukraine wins the Russian war, and has a military economy, and Finland has entered NATO, and they are just eaten by the E if NATO is defeated, and then you have the Gona. And then it's gone. So that's the question. If we are going to be so close to the US, so close to NATO, or if we are going to be more shy to talk to the Russians and China and stuff. That's a very difficult question. It's very difficult.

And how scared are we going to be? I can't understand how real... Everything is so high up and just fucked up. That I don't understand what is true at one point. It's very complicated. Especially now when it's very difficult to know what is true and what is false. The war in Ukraine is... You hear completely opposite reports from the war. There are some, and this is professors who are on each side and say that Ukraine is doing pretty well.

There are others who say that the war has won. Russia is just coming to eat on us. I hear everything. I was in Brussels and visited a friend who works in EFTA. She has a lot of political friends. I talked to someone who was in Russia and had been on a trip there, and who travelled from Russia and through Norway. And the shift between being in Russia, the cold, poor and everything was terrible in Norway, with Christmas lights and beauties.

He said that the Russians are just very afraid and think that everyone wants to attack. So maybe we should go after them and say... Do you think the Russian people will attack from the other side of the country? Yes, that they are so afraid... They think that everyone is after them. That's the propaganda's foot-fist in that way. That they think that NATO is actually ready to invade from all sides. If it was Putin, I would have said the same. It's smart.

The most classic weapons to suppress is to say that everyone is our enemy. Create fear. America too. And Israel. Everyone is like that. It's incredible. I don't know, has it always been as exciting as it is now? I think it was a top-ass during the war too. Yes.

It's nice to get into it a bit. Yes, get into it a bit. Since we first had a humor podcast, it was clear that we would get married to Sitcom. It was a golden-brown female. But... Do I have anything else? Do you have anything you want to add at the end? I thought about the scenario you had with Jakob Skøyen. What was it? What was it? You are caught in the middle... Or you will prove that you are from the future to a middle-aged man.

You had hoped to get that one, because you had thought about it. Yes, or I just thought about it. And then I just want to throw out a slide. Yes. Because I think I would have managed to make... Without plastic? Yes. A tree. A tree, a tree will be loose. It will be heavy to...... roll.

I wonder how impressed they will be by glideros. By three? Yes. Or by the leather. Leather. Yes. Hard leather. They see something. I had a hope for something better than that. Yes. I just had to throw it in.

Glideros is quite... It's not so easy to get to that... The predecessor of gliderososs is the Christmas tree. Right? Something that fits each other. Damn, they probably have Christmas trees. Christmas trees? I'm not sure they have Christmas trees. But they...

Christmas trees? When Christmas trees came? They have made Christmas trees. Or is it an industrial person? When did the toothpick arrive? When did the toothpick arrive? They had 14 o'clock. And inside the clock there are a lot of toothpick. They had a bell with a thread first.

And a man with a chrome back. Yes, chrome back and such. That's right. I haven't seen that movie yet. Ringarn? Ringarn. Yes, that's right. I haven't seen that movie yet. We'll have to see. Ringan at the Dam. I don't think it's on today. I think it's...

It's so violent, his back is... Vicious, that's for me. Vicious. It's nice music. I'm completely honest. Ringan at the Dam. One of my favorite movies. At least my favorite Disney movies of all time. It was fantastic. I saw it a lot when I was little.

I felt like I was in a little hook back clock. It's a classic story. Beautiful. Okay, you guys. You. Congratulations on the Humor Prize. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you. I have nominated myself. The Star Community. Oh my God. And then, when this episode is released, and that is tomorrow, it is Friday. And that is the day. A hell of a lot of sketches on the stage. Park Theatre.
