True Anon Truth Feed - [PREVIEW] Episode 364: What's Up With Germany: Part 1 Aired: 2024-03-25 Duration: 04:57 === Why Germans Don't Laugh? (04:56) === [00:00:00] And I was once on a German talk show and if you want to go on one, it's a lot of fun. [00:00:05] It's really fun. [00:00:06] And I was on this German talk show and this woman said to me, she said, Mr. Williams, why do you think there's not so much comedy in Germany? [00:00:12] And I said, did you ever think you killed all the funny people? [00:00:18] And here's what got interesting. [00:00:19] She didn't batten Eila. [00:00:20] She just went, no. [00:00:23] At that point, even God's going, do you get it? [00:01:00] Willkommen, mein Damen und Herren. [00:01:02] Zu einer episode über unser Glorikets Waterland. [00:01:09] Mine in name is Brace Belden. [00:01:13] Und. [00:01:14] I'm Les. [00:01:15] Und. [00:01:16] We are, of course, joined by producer Jan Chomsky. [00:01:18] Uber producer Jan Chomsky. [00:01:21] And und podcast is called True Anan. [00:01:26] Jesus. [00:01:26] You went into Austrian right there. [00:01:29] Hello, everyone. [00:01:30] Welcome to Drunan. [00:01:31] Hello. [00:01:32] How are you guys doing? [00:01:34] Wilkomen to Wilkamen to the Uber Dance Club. [00:01:40] It's crazy. [00:01:41] So I've been thinking. [00:01:43] I've been in thinking. [00:01:44] I've been thinking. [00:01:45] Actually, I'll say this. [00:01:46] Let's back up even farther to several days ago, to about a week ago. [00:01:51] Okay. [00:01:51] But we've been talking about doing this episode for a long time. [00:01:53] Yeah. [00:01:55] And have kind of been like researching stuff here and there. [00:01:57] But we really, really got like started on this pair of episodes about a week ago in earnest. [00:02:04] And I got to tell you, I have been in the hole. [00:02:09] The trenches. [00:02:11] Well, that was, of course, where I was made a man on the Western Front of World War I. [00:02:17] And also where I got a fantastic gay blow job from Ernst Junger. [00:02:22] But I got to tell you, I have been in the German mindset. [00:02:26] I've been waking up at the crack of dawn. [00:02:30] I have had my daily floggings. [00:02:33] Daily floggings, a wispily thin twink shitting on my chest. [00:02:38] I have taken ecstasy at about 9 a.m. So that you could complete your art direction portfolio. [00:02:46] For Nike. [00:02:46] For Nike's. [00:02:48] Yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:02:49] For Nike's, you know, the consultant gig you're getting through Nike, but for the European Commission. [00:02:58] Absolute. [00:02:59] Absolutz zin. [00:03:00] And then after that, at around 9.30, of course, I eat Mein Breakfast, which consists of one black coffee and about 45 sausage links. [00:03:15] Sure. [00:03:15] Sort of fed to me one by one by various completely latex clad, amorphously gender dog mask individuals. [00:03:24] And you're being walked. [00:03:26] I'm being walked. [00:03:27] Yeah. [00:03:27] It's the dog, because that's the classic German, that's the German joke. [00:03:32] It's who's walking who when they see a dog and a person walking. [00:03:36] And then, of course, around noon, I go to the Zedance club and I stay there until about four in the morning where I come back and I do more graphic design work. [00:03:43] Yes. [00:03:44] And then, of course, what I do is I go through the Instagram posts of various Arab, Turkish people who've moved to Main City, Berlin, and I try to find anything that maybe is a little too pro-Palestine. [00:04:00] Spicy. [00:04:01] Palestine? [00:04:02] A little spicy, and not in a curry worst kind of thing. [00:04:05] No, no, no. [00:04:06] In a way that I find distasteful. [00:04:08] Which is how I find curry worst. [00:04:10] I've never had it. [00:04:12] German food is just not my business. [00:04:14] I had to say, there's this thing that Brest said about Germans. [00:04:19] And you got to take it from him, right? [00:04:22] Big Brest himself. [00:04:23] And he was like, you know, the gap between someone like Goethe and the average, let's say, sausage-eating German is so much wider than the gap between, say, Voltaire and the average Frenchman. [00:04:42] Brest himself did not particularly have much love for the high esteem of his countrymen. [00:04:48] I will say this. [00:04:50] I hold the German, the Hun, in both high and low regard. [00:04:57] Okay.
