In traditional carnival style, the village idiot - portrayed by comedian Günter Dudenhöfer - misspeaks, twists his words all around and gets all mixed up. In the process, however, he leaves various social institutions and current trends in his wake handsomely lampooned. Viel Spaß dabei!

Here's more from comedian Günter Dudenhöfer. According to the program's host, he's the Palatine region's best "Büttenredner" [carnival] orator since Helmut Kohl. A "Bütt" is a barrel in which the orators usually stand while airing the latest "dirty laundry" of the powers that be. Viel Spaß!
