    -long rambling historical lecture

    -Yeah. Yeah. Sorry, I was thinking of birds for a moment. Many people in Ukraine are surprised and angry to learn they are actually Russia. What would happen if other parts of Russia learn they are actually France? Would they try to join the EU?

      You live in a place called Red Square, but it’s not square-shaped. So why is it called that?

      And is the Hermitage where all the Russian hermits live?

    “someone told me that the cold war never really ended, but my cousin Lucy went to Turkey on holiday last year and she said it was really hot and she got sunburnt, so has it ended or is the cold war only happening where it’s snowed?”

      This is Philomena Cunk, a satirical BBC news reporter. They produce videos in which she interviews historical experts but only asks them stupid questions like “Were the pyramids built from the ground up, or from the top down?”

        The best ones are with the philosophy guy imo, he employs the rethorical “Principle of Charity” in such a master class way which turns her stupid questions into profound conundrums which he tackles and he manages to act out this sense of being delighted to finally being asked deep philosophical questions in an interview. It’s great.

        Unpopular opinion: I didn’t find it as funny as Cunk on Britain. The humour in Cunk on Earth is less subtle; it doesn’t have the trademark British dry wit and sarcasm. The new show kind of tries to be funny instead of letting the humour flow. I grew up with British TV so I prefer the first series.

        A dictatorship is a system of government where the one person gets to help everyone out by making all the tough and boring governmenty decisions. But it’s also a system where the the one person making the decisons can be a really bad person, and therefore can make really bad decisions. So, yeah, swings and roundabouts.

            That was not Pooty being Playful, that was him warning Carlson that he knows him and his secrets, and if he veers off script, well…let’s just say some of Carlson’s deep hidden secrets may come to light.

            But, of course, just Pooty doing the interview revealed a lot. It revealed that things are worse for Russia than Russia is acknowledging, because otherwise Pooty wouldn’t be doing an interview in the first place.

          She is Diane Morgan. The character she plays was invented for Charlie Brooker’s series Weekly Wipe as a parody of a talking head interviewee along with a male counterpart named Barry Shitpeas.

          Yes it is definitely Diane Morgan’s last name

          Edit - highly recommend her sitcom, Mandy
