Germany to Portugal comedy collabo with Humorist Frank

Alright, so here’s the thing. I’m NOT versatile at all. I do some standup. I get a lot of help from friends making little skits here and there. Those are already stretching the boundaries of my creative spirits. So I alwaaaaaaaaaaays feel iffy when people invite me to do stuff outside of that, like podcasts. Everyone has a podcast. I don’t have a single fucking exciting thing to say. That’s why I spend days writing clever shit. And then I have to spend time polishing those turd on stage. It’s still a turd, but shiny.

Anyway, what I’m trying to say is that I’m not comfortable collaborating on “new” stuff. So when Humorist Frank contacted me through Instagram to collaborate, I was a bit worried! He and his wife were visiting Lisbon from Hamburg, Germany, and wanted to connect on his trip. And connect, we did! Portugal style. Hanging out in the park with chickens at Campo dos Mártires da Pátria!

Did we do a podcast? Thank fucking not. Frank had this great idea to play a little game. I guess we’ll call it a “German cultural challenge.” He had prepared a few German tongue twisters or “tongue breakers,” as he said. I can imagine when speaking German, it’s possible to break your tongue, so I’m assuming the slight naming difference is intentional. my job was to try saying them without sounding like a dumb American. And I successfully failed! You can watch the fun below on his youtube channel!

He also does videos with his Potoo friend Tupu and I fucking love Tupu. I don’t know if it’s the eyes or the beak. Sometimmes about these birds are really silly looking and makes a perfect comedy sidekick. Maybe the best since “Triumph the Insult Comic Dog”. Anyway, here’s Tupu touring Lisbon. Enjoy.

If we had more time together, we would have got Tupu into some dope skits. And Frank too, but wow, Tupu is going to be a star for sure. It was nice meeting a fellow humorist and hanging out for a bit of collabo action on a lovely Lisbon afternoon.

Dope people y’all. Love dope people. Hit me up and let’s do dope weird shit together on sunny afternoons. Or rainy ones. Look, I honestly don’t care about the weather too much. I dunno why I specified that. So I want to clarify - any weather!
