00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:05,400
COMEDY CLASS BY ERIC AND RAMZY

2
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:17,440
The first challenge is Carte Blanche.

3
00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:21,640
We've seen five acts so far,
and some of them did pretty well.

4
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:24,200
-Like Antek.
-And Anne Boissard.

5
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:27,800
Some of them have struggled.
Appoline has been issued a warning.

6
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:31,040
Let me remind you of the rules,
which originated in the States

7
00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:32,520
-since this show--
-By the States.

8
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:33,960
was invented in Wisconsin.

9
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:37,040
After two warnings,
you'll go home to your sister.

10
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:39,320
All right,
we have seven more acts to discover.

11
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:43,400
-Seven more opportunities to laugh.
-Let's see if anyone else gets a warning.

12
00:00:43,480 --> 00:00:47,360
We can issue warnings live,
or at the end, if we're unsure.

13
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:48,320
Let's go!

14
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:51,760
Ladies and gentlemen, Enzo Ricci!

15
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:53,680
Enzo Ricci!

16
00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,280
This is the beginning. It's do or die.

17
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:01,480
My first objective
is to avoid getting a warning.

18
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,000
I want to build momentum
as the challenges go on.

19
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,640
If you play, you play to win.
It's the only way.

20
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,840
Yes, ladies and gentlemen.

21
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:15,200
ENZO RICCI
27 YEARS OLD

22
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:19,080
I'm so happy to be here.

23
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,760
Welcome. I'm thrilled. I love butts.

24
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:25,800
I love butts.

25
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:27,440
Male or female, doesn't matter.

26
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:29,040
For me, it's what's inside that…

27
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:31,240
They have to be human.

28
00:01:31,320 --> 00:01:35,400
I saw my neighbor's cat this morning.
I didn't say, "I'd smash that."

29
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:37,880
I did some self-reflection.

30
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,080
Every time I've seen a butt,
I've had a great time.

31
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,480
I've laughed, I've made love,
or I've said something like,

32
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,400
"Grandpa, you're so dumb!"

33
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,080
Butts create a fun atmosphere.

34
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:55,360
When you wake up one morning
and see your roommate's butt, you smile.

35
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:57,600
There's no attraction,
but there's a suggestion.

36
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,600
If someone bends down in the street
and I see their butt,

37
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:02,440
it's like them saying, "Have a great day!"

38
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:03,400
That's…

39
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:04,920
Butts make you happy.

40
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,760
Why do hospital gowns open at the back?

41
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,400
To give the patient hope.

42
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:14,000
"Sure, I have cancer,
but seeing Gisèle's ass gives me hope."

43
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,600
I want to invent pants
that open at the back.

44
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,760
If someone's depressed, you just say,
"Come on, cheer up."

45
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,280
Butts are generous.
No, I'm not done with the topic.

46
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,680
You can't see your own butt.
It's for others.

47
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,640
My butt. Your pleasure.

48
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,800
That's why we look
at other people's butts. It's fine.

49
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,240
As long as it only lasts
half a second and you move on.

50
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,960
Sometimes I look at a woman's butt,
and I'm scared I'll get caught,

51
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,760
so I look at a guy's ass,
and I go way overboard. I'm like…

52
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,480
My guy!

53
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:48,520
Nice.

54
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:55,320
That's why when you see your own butt,
you're happy.

55
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,080
You never see it, but then
you get out of the shower, naked,

56
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,440
walk in front of a mirror, and think,

57
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:03,240
"I'd do me."

58
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,560
Each person has their own stance.

59
00:03:05,640 --> 00:03:07,400
Some are like this, or like this.

60
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,080
I'm a purist though. Insane.

61
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,120
Thanks for having me, folks.

62
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,800
-Well done.
-Well done.

63
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,320
For me, that was perfect.

64
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,320
-The pacing, the jokes.
-Mastery.

65
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,000
-The energy.
-The energy.

66
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:32,280
The topic.

67
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,320
Jokes about butts
aren't normally my thing.

68
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:36,480
But I loved it.

69
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:41,320
It was subtle. You could have said "ass,"
but it would have changed everything.

70
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:42,480
You said "butt,"

71
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,000
which is cute.

72
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,520
The cat part was absurd.

73
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,440
There are so many layers to your comedy.

74
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:53,200
-We can tell that you're ready.
-He's good.

75
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,720
-I like his maturity.
-I love his vibe.

76
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,960
-Great vibes.
-Very good.

77
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,240
-Thank you so much.
-Well done, Enzo. Awesome.

78
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,080
Thank you. Let's hear it for butts!

79
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,440
He's leaving,
everyone's looking at his butt. Did you?

80
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:07,480
Not at all.

81
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:09,440
Still got it!

82
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:12,760
-He nailed it.
-Damn.

83
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,720
We have our winner, let's stop now.

84
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,120
Very strong, very confident.

85
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,480
Very charming.
He can get away with anything.

86
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:21,400
Everything was great.

87
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:25,840
I gave him my business card
and said, "Call me."

88
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,800
I'd buy him anything at Apple,
that's how much I like him.

89
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:30,360
-Not one of your five a day.
-Nice.

90
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:32,240
I'm impressed.

91
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,920
-By the level?
-Yeah.

92
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:36,760
They picked great contestants.

93
00:04:36,840 --> 00:04:39,120
They picked a good audience too.

94
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,840
I know what I'm doing.

95
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,560
Up next, it's Camille Fievez.

96
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:58,560
CAMILLE FIEVEZ
36 YEARS OLD

97
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:02,960
I was told not to talk about sex.
It's not the right tone for the show.

98
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,200
I'll do my best, but I couldn't come here

99
00:05:06,280 --> 00:05:07,720
and not talk about my pussy.

100
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,080
Let's go!

101
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,760
I'm testing a new menstrual cup.

102
00:05:13,840 --> 00:05:17,040
A German brand.

103
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,000
It's not like the French ones.

104
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,320
You need to insert it much further.

105
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,480
You need to insert it
all the way up to the Schudengubelbe.

106
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,600
You have to be careful, because
it can irritate the Geffenwehstuffen.

107
00:05:29,280 --> 00:05:32,000
And over time, wreck my huge pussy.

108
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,840
So, I achieved
something amazing this year.

109
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:37,920
I became a mom.

110
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,120
Yeah, thank you.

111
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:41,760
No, no.

112
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:43,720
Don't applaud.

113
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:45,680
I might have created a serial killer.

114
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,720
I'm terrified of having a second child.

115
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,040
I'm afraid I'd prefer it.

116
00:05:54,280 --> 00:05:57,480
I mean, it's pretty likely.
I don't like the first one much.

117
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,080
I really don't want to be pregnant again.

118
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,120
Because I love alcohol.

119
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,680
That was the hardest part of my pregnancy.

120
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:09,200
Not being able to mix drinks.

121
00:06:11,840 --> 00:06:15,240
It's a myth
that you can't drink during pregnancy.

122
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,800
You just can't drink too much.

123
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:19,680
Only drink when you're thirsty.

124
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:21,920
Or at a party.

125
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:24,120
That's it.

126
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,000
Please laugh, I really need the €50,000.

127
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:32,640
I was just contacted by a cousin
I didn't even know I had.

128
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,360
He's having issues in Nigeria.
I really need to help him out.

129
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,280
Thank you, that's all from me.

130
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,040
Yeah!

131
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:43,440
Camille Fievez.

132
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,400
-Well done, Camille.
-So, if we really break it down…

133
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:50,840
What did you think about the pussy part?

134
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:54,280
I loved the alcohol part.

135
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,960
You were so at ease talking about alcohol.

136
00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:01,880
Everything you did in that last third
was spot on, really well done.

137
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:03,160
I was more open to it.

138
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,600
I think you could pull anything off
if you're relaxed.

139
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:08,640
I was terrified.

140
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,640
I could tell, actually.

141
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,680
I'm very sensitive. I have a high IQ,
high emotional intelligence.

142
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:15,800
Both types.

143
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:17,760
-You're just high.
-Mind if I go smoke?

144
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:22,040
I think that mindset is essential
for this style of comedy,

145
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,040
which really makes me laugh, unlike him.

146
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:25,280
He's "refined."

147
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:27,760
He needs Voltaire.

148
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:31,400
You have a comic aura.

149
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:33,440
There's something about you.

150
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:35,200
We want to laugh with you.

151
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:39,520
But for me, potty humor, pussy jokes,
it's kind of basic.

152
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,320
It makes kids laugh.

153
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:46,120
I've moved on to other topics.

154
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:49,080
I'm still at the anal stage.

155
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:51,400
You know how to talk to us.

156
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:52,880
What about you, big guy?

157
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,840
I think it works.
It works with your character.

158
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,840
I completely disagree with Éric.

159
00:07:59,920 --> 00:08:02,720
-I'm with you.
-I didn't agree with me either.

160
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:06,480
Either way, there's debate,
there's discussion, it's interesting.

161
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,960
That's what we like on this show.
That's why people watch.

162
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:13,440
-It's Season five.
-They love these debates.

163
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,680
-Thank you, Camille.
-Well done.

164
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:23,040
All these so-called edgy topics
that aren't actually anything new,

165
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:23,960
she's lost me.

166
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:25,240
You're going too far.

167
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,440
She said "pussy" twice.

168
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:31,080
If she manages to relax,
she'll be able to tell more jokes about…

169
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:32,320
Her p***

170
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,760
She said it in her act.
Why censor me and not her?

171
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:37,200
You can only say it five times.

172
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,000
-What about huge p***
-Four.

173
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:40,920
-How many times have I said it?
-Ten.

174
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,000
Only use the best p***

175
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,200
-Only the best.
-You're the one choosing.

176
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,000
-The best p***
-Huge p***, greatest hits.

177
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,400
It's time for Tristan Pierre.

178
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:52,760
Tristan Pierre.

179
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,920
If I think "competition,"
I see myself in the finale.

180
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:58,480
It's not up to me, though.

181
00:08:58,560 --> 00:09:00,320
It's time to show what makes me special.

182
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:01,400
TRISTAN PIERRE

183
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,240
I can't wait to make the audience laugh.

184
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:05,160
You too.

185
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,480
Because you're watching the show.

186
00:09:07,560 --> 00:09:09,160
I want to make you laugh too.

187
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:13,080
TRISTAN PIERRE
2

188
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:14,160
He's taking his time.

189
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,320
If you pronounce "challenge"
with a French accent,

190
00:09:17,560 --> 00:09:19,040
do you do the same with "parking"?

191
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:21,440
Good evening.

192
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:23,280
Not bad.

193
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:25,720
I liked that. I'll do it again.

194
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:27,920
Unemployment.

195
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,520
You know who never had that issue?

196
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:30,680
Steve Jobs.

197
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:32,480
Good evening.

198
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:39,720
I usually save the best till last.

199
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:41,320
I'm going to start with my ex.

200
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,040
Boring, dirty, ugly.

201
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:47,480
Like Grenoble. That's right.

202
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:50,840
And I prefer Grenoble.

203
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:53,280
Because in Grenoble,

204
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:54,840
you know where to find the g… spot.

205
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:57,880
I'm not the only one. Studies show

206
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,440
that 99% of men don't know
where Grenoble is.

207
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:03,840
I can see a few of you thinking,

208
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:08,040
"He's talking rubbish.
I know exactly where the g-spot is."

209
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,040
Shut up, Alphonse. You're no good in bed.

210
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:12,080
Just like the rest of us.

211
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:13,000
What's your name?

212
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,000
Your name is Alphonse now.

213
00:10:15,680 --> 00:10:17,160
And Alphonses are bad in bed.

214
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:21,000
Alphonses and Tristans.
We're a team. We're bad in bed together.

215
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:32,240
Individually.

216
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:34,960
Individually.

217
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,520
In 2015, my doctor said,
"You know, Tristan…"

218
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:39,520
I was very small.

219
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,240
He said, "You know, Tristan,

220
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,680
"when you're done growing,
you'll be at least 1.80m tall."

221
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:51,080
We're stuck in 2015, then.

222
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:56,600
Yes!

223
00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:58,640
Good job.

224
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,000
Well done, Tristan.

225
00:11:03,680 --> 00:11:05,920
I got a ticket to New York.
I was at The Comedy Store.

226
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,320
So true. It was like being in New York.

227
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,840
Don't take this the wrong way.
I mean this as a compliment.

228
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:15,440
I thought it was complete nonsense.

229
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:17,920
And I loved it.

230
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,360
I have nothing else to add.

231
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:21,200
Come back soon.

232
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:26,520
Thank you.

233
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,400
For me, you have something unique.

234
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:30,800
It's awesome.

235
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:34,160
You manage to make people laugh
in less than 30 seconds.

236
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,600
I love that style of comedy
with absurd ideas

237
00:11:36,680 --> 00:11:38,560
that come out of nowhere, totally random.

238
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,120
I loved everything about what you did.

239
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,400
-So good.
-You're so good.

240
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:48,560
Ladies and gentlemen, Tristan Pierre!

241
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,680
-I loved it.
-He's my type of comic.

242
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,360
It's the first time
we've seen someone better than us.

243
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,760
-Really? We see that every day.
-No, we've seen that before, yeah.

244
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:01,880
Online.

245
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:03,120
No. Oh yeah.

246
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,200
Careful, Ramzy thinks you're serious.

247
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,560
I can tell. He's taking it at face value.

248
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,360
-No, today was the first time.
-Every time I say something,

249
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,040
you make fun of me. It's annoying.

250
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,600
-No, what's wrong with you?
-So…

251
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:19,440
Okay, time for the next contestant.

252
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:23,280
I'm stressed that I could get a warning.

253
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:24,960
I don't want to leave.

254
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:26,840
I've been watching the other acts.

255
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:28,400
They're so good.

256
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:30,080
It's a lot of pressure.

257
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:40,160
I'm so happy to be here.

258
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,360
I used to be a lawyer,
but I quit because it was too hard…

259
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:44,760
VIOLAINE HENRY
38 YEARS OLD

260
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:46,200
…to make the judges laugh.

261
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,280
One day in court,
I told a joke to a judge.

262
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:50,640
She said, "That was criminal."

263
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,120
I said, "No, it's a pun."

264
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:54,760
I knew I had to quit.

265
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,680
I couldn't make a living from stand-up
right away.

266
00:12:57,760 --> 00:12:59,560
I had to find another job.

267
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,960
I decided to teach French
at middle school.

268
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:03,480
As a substitute teacher.

269
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:09,720
At the interview, given my career,
they asked, "Why do you want this job?"

270
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:11,520
I said, "Not for the salary!"

271
00:13:12,560 --> 00:13:14,160
They said, "Interesting."

272
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:15,320
"You start tomorrow."

273
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:18,840
In Seine-Saint-Denis.

274
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,120
I arrived at the reception,

275
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,320
and they said, "Are you the hall monitor?"

276
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:25,600
I said, "No, I'm a teacher."

277
00:13:25,680 --> 00:13:27,760
They said I didn't have the right style.

278
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:29,560
I said, "What style do teachers have?"

279
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:31,400
"That's the thing. None."

280
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,680
I went to my classroom
where my students were waiting.

281
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:37,040
There were 30 of them.

282
00:13:37,560 --> 00:13:41,520
I was happy. An audience of 30.
You don't get that every night in Paris.

283
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,440
Their level of French was awful.

284
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,400
One error per word. The stats are clear.

285
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,280
I was already used to the stats.

286
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:51,880
I mentioned I was a lawyer.

287
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,360
I read police reports.

288
00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,680
At every staff meeting
there was a slightly judgmental teacher.

289
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,960
"This student makes a lot of mistakes.
They have no future."

290
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:05,160
I said, "Yes they do."

291
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,120
"Aubervilliers police station,

292
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:08,920
"Saint-Denis police station."

293
00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:13,120
There was always a teacher who said,
"That kid's violent."

294
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,240
Fine, he can join the riot police.
Problem solved.

295
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,160
Thanks for listening to me.

296
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:23,240
Thank you and well done.
I thought it was quite classic.

297
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,280
You didn't challenge me at any point.

298
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,960
It was comfortable humor.

299
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,320
If it's originality we're after,

300
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,440
we won't find it here.

301
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:37,640
You could be more unpredictable
in the way you tell us things.

302
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:41,480
Try to shake up your timing
to explore new territory.

303
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:43,840
You might even surprise yourself.

304
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,080
I can't wait to see what happens next.

305
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,400
It'll help me understand
where you're headed,

306
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:51,280
whether you get a second wind

307
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,760
or stick with these classic topics.

308
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:56,720
You challenged me just enough.

309
00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,600
Violaine, well done and thank you.

310
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,440
I really enjoyed it,

311
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:05,920
but the feedback was tough to hear.

312
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:09,360
It was constructive,
but I might have a warning in store.

313
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,840
-She's not far from a warning.
-She's very young.

314
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:16,040
-Know what I mean? If she…
-We get that.

315
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,080
Fuck you guys.

316
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:20,560
-"Why did they invite me?"
-Why?

317
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:22,880
I like adult humor, I told you.

318
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:25,160
-40 years old.
-If it's to laugh at babies…

319
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,400
Comedy is either funny or not funny.

320
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,760
Stop it. I'm on his side now.

321
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:32,640
Hold on, we need to get…

322
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,200
On my side

323
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,160
He's on my side now

324
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:40,000
I don't think he's being sincere

325
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,120
But for now he's on my side

326
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:43,520
This isn't normal

327
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,280
You don't want to get involved.
Stop sulking.

328
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,640
We just met. For 15 years,
I only hung out with you.

329
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:50,640
You wouldn't let me meet him.

330
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:56,000
There's a real chemistry between us,
and you're sulking.

331
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,720
I'm imagining
that I'm a contestant waiting to come on,

332
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:00,440
listening to your dumbass jokes.

333
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:02,600
Well, fuck. Let's go!

334
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:04,280
Dudley, ladies and gentlemen.

335
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:05,840
It's happening.

336
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:07,240
The goal is to win.

337
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,880
€50,000 just like that? We want it.

338
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:13,120
I'm ready as never before. Let's do this.

339
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:14,120
DUDLEY
28 YEARS OLD

340
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:15,200
Good evening!

341
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:16,480
Yeah!

342
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,160
Something happened to me last year.

343
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:20,240
I fell in love.

344
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:25,160
It gave me this weird feeling
in my stomach. Dragonflies.

345
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,960
I do things that used to disgust me.

346
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:29,800
We wear matching clothes.

347
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:32,480
It wasn't enough.

348
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,760
Now, I wear her clothes.

349
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:37,280
I look so pretty in a skirt.

350
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:39,120
To tell you the truth,

351
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,240
I don't know if we're really together.

352
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,360
The thing is… We don't know.

353
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:44,800
It's 2025.

354
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:49,440
If you're old enough to remember
when France used francs,

355
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:51,920
you'd kiss someone, you'd get married.

356
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:53,080
Know what I mean?

357
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:54,760
It's different now.

358
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:58,600
You can be in a relationship with someone
who's already with someone,

359
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:00,080
who's already with someone else.

360
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:09,880
After a while,
I had to tell her I was in love with her.

361
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,000
I sent a text message for the first time.

362
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:16,320
In my day, you paid per character.

363
00:17:17,120 --> 00:17:20,320
Back then, it was brutal.
You have it easy now.

364
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:23,320
"What?" "Too funny."
"That's not what I meant. xD"

365
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:27,280
You use asterisks. They're expensive.

366
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:30,400
I remember sending a message.

367
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:32,760
I took my phone, feeling confident.

368
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:34,960
I said, "Hey, Barbara."

369
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:37,360
Such an expensive name.

370
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:39,440
"Do you want to go out with me?"

371
00:17:40,120 --> 00:17:41,280
You know what she said?

372
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:43,160
"No."

373
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:45,880
She just wrote the "N."
At least give me the "o"!

374
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,120
I gave you my heart, give me the "o"!
I deserve it!

375
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:50,680
Thank you for your attention.

376
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:53,200
-Well done, Dudley.
-Well done.

377
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,000
While I was watching you, I thought,

378
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:58,360
"The delivery is great,
but it lacks substance."

379
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:00,360
-I understand.
-If you dig a little deeper,

380
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:02,680
you could really take off.

381
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,400
-Thank you.
-Well done, Dudley.

382
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,920
-Wait, wait, wait!
-Thank you.

383
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,080
You are a great storyteller.

384
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,880
You've got our attention,
now add some depth.

385
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:16,120
Okay, bye.

386
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,560
-You were great.
-Well done.

387
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,600
Wait, Dudley!

388
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:23,520
Wait, it's not over.

389
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:25,600
Ramzy, what did you want to say?

390
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,840
I can't wait to see you again,
I hope you sort out your message.

391
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:29,920
And your hair.

392
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,080
-That's it. Pow!
-Thank you, Dudley.

393
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:37,960
-Wait!
-Wait, wait, wait!

394
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:40,160
One last thing before you leave.

395
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:43,040
-Your pants…
-Your pants are too short.

396
00:18:43,120 --> 00:18:45,400
Sort them out too.

397
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,960
-If you can sort them out…
-Sort it all out.

398
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:52,160
Sort it all out and you'll be great.
You can go all the way.

399
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:54,360
Bye, Dudley. You're the best.

400
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:56,800
-I liked…
-All the "wait!" jokes?

401
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:58,160
They were good.

402
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:00,960
-Were they?
-Wait, of course they were.

403
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,240
-His delivery is great.
-So good.

404
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:05,640
He's great to watch. He's special.

405
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,720
If he manages to add some layers,
if he adds some tomatoes,

406
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:13,080
makes us a nice sandwich worth 20 bucks,
he could go all the way.

407
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,400
If he comes back
with the same kind of set…

408
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:16,800
Warning.

409
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,360
Poulet de Feu!

410
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,520
Carte Blanche feels
like my first day at school.

411
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:37,120
I'd hate to get a warning
on the first challenge.

412
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:38,320
POULET DE FEU
25 YEARS OLD

413
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,360
People often ask me
what I did before stand-up.

414
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,840
Were you the prized garden gnome

415
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:44,360
in some old person's collection?

416
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:45,640
I used to look like this.

417
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:49,800
Actually, I did Nordic studies.

418
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:53,040
I dedicated five years of my life

419
00:19:53,120 --> 00:19:56,640
to learning Swedish, Danish,
Icelandic, and Norwegian.

420
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:58,080
After five years,

421
00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:01,240
I learned that all these countries
speak English extremely well

422
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:02,800
so I'd need to do something else.

423
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:10,360
I use Swedish in furniture stores

424
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:12,280
and translate furniture names
for strangers.

425
00:20:13,120 --> 00:20:14,200
I go up behind them like,

426
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:16,480
"Sorry for interrupting."

427
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,160
"It's pronounced 'Vitsjö.'"

428
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:21,800
"Sjö," yeah, that's hard.

429
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,080
It means "white lake." Have a nice day.

430
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:30,120
Enough.

431
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:34,320
Not long ago, I went to Iceland
to practice my Icelandic a little.

432
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:37,440
It was so cool. I went to the pool.

433
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,080
But in Iceland,
there's nowhere to get changed.

434
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,440
I went in
and there were no changing rooms.

435
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:47,600
I saw a sign which said,
in Icelandic, "Take all your clothes off."

436
00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:52,280
I got naked, took a shower,
and a woman said,

437
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:54,120
"You go first."

438
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:55,040
"Kids."

439
00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:57,280
"I'll join you."

440
00:20:57,360 --> 00:21:02,040
I thought, "I really hope
I understood that sign."

441
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,120
I could hear them coming in
and I turned towards them.

442
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,440
I never thought I'd say this,

443
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,240
but I was so happy to see naked children.

444
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,080
Thank you for having me.

445
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:16,920
-Poulet de Feu.
-Thanks.

446
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,040
Poulet de Feu, Chicken on Fire.

447
00:21:19,120 --> 00:21:21,040
-What should I call you?
-Élise.

448
00:21:21,120 --> 00:21:22,520
Élise. Simple.

449
00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:24,640
You have great energy.

450
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:29,080
You can be a little crazier
with your writing.

451
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,960
With your personality,
you can pull it off.

452
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:36,440
The whole Norwegian and Swedish thing,
I didn't really go all in.

453
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,000
-You hate those countries.
-You never go anywhere.

454
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:43,920
I didn't really get into it,
but you were an excellent comedian

455
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,560
and I'm looking forward to your next set.

456
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,800
I loved your 60 Seconds round.

457
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:51,600
It was crazy.

458
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:53,480
This was pretty conventional.

459
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,200
-So personally, I'm disappointed.
-Okay.

460
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,160
-Sorry.
-No worries. Thank you.

461
00:21:58,240 --> 00:21:59,880
-Bye, Élise.
-See you, Élise.

462
00:21:59,960 --> 00:22:01,920
-Thank you, well done!
-Well done!

463
00:22:05,120 --> 00:22:06,920
-You're tough.
-What you said was harsh.

464
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,840
Yeah, but it's what I thought.

465
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:11,320
-I did too.
-Same.

466
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:13,360
-We were all disappointed.
-It's hard to say.

467
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,520
-Yeah, it's…
-I was such a Judas,

468
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,240
saying, "I love you."

469
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:19,320
Like DuPont de Ligonnès.

470
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,280
-He did that too.
-"Goodnight!" You're next.

471
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:27,320
She's being so normal
after starting out so over-the-top.

472
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:28,360
It doesn't work.

473
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:30,200
She turns up with her red hair…

474
00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:33,360
I expect a certain kind of humor,
one I really like.

475
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:35,960
It's hard to get them on board.

476
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:38,920
-I love poulet, you love feu.
-I love poulet.

477
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:40,280
I like couscous.

478
00:22:40,360 --> 00:22:41,200
Same.

479
00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,400
Couscous is literally chicken.

480
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:44,600
-Really?
-Of course.

481
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:47,120
-It's not semolina…
-"Couscous" in Arabic means "chicken."

482
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:50,000
I'm learning.

483
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:51,960
Antony Giuliani, are you ready?

484
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:53,920
-Come on, Antony.
-Your turn, Antony.

485
00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,120
The challenges have started.
Now we can get warnings.

486
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:02,440
It's funny,
but I don't feel like I'm taking a risk.

487
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:03,680
I'm taking them all down.

488
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,880
Hey, Éric, Ramzy, Joco.

489
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:07,280
ANTONY GIULIANI
30 YEARS OLD

490
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,440
I'm so dumb. I'm a real idiot.

491
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,840
I swear I'm a moron.

492
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:16,200
I dropped out of high school
three weeks before graduation.

493
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,400
I said, "Go on without me,
I'll just slow you down."

494
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:22,400
I know my vocabulary isn't great.

495
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:27,040
I can tell
because my sentences are too short.

496
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:31,600
I can see that people are waiting
for the rest of the sentence,

497
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:35,400
but I'm done.

498
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,000
Let me give you some advice.
I've developed some techniques.

499
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:41,920
In conversations,
when there are words I don't understand,

500
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:43,200
so that no one notices,

501
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:45,000
I act like they're the one who's wrong.

502
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:49,040
It works. They're like,
"Paris is being gentrified."

503
00:23:49,120 --> 00:23:51,440
I'm like, "I can't let you say that."

504
00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:53,400
"No."

505
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,360
They say, "It is,
technocrats are controlling the country."

506
00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:58,480
"You're going off-topic."

507
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,080
Sometimes I try out stuff randomly.

508
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,240
"Well, those technocrats…"

509
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:09,320
Yeah.

510
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,400
I know I struggle to express myself.

511
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:15,440
That being said, I don't know why,
when I'm flirting,

512
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,200
my brain is at its best.

513
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,160
Guys know what I'm talking about.

514
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,200
There's nothing stupider
than when guys hang out.

515
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:25,800
If you add a couple of women,

516
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:27,840
I swear, they turn into philosophers.

517
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,640
"She's right, the planet is burning,
because we're playing with fire."

518
00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:32,960
You?

519
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,800
Two minutes ago, he was lighting
a fire with his ass. "Guys, look!"

520
00:24:36,360 --> 00:24:38,520
"It's taking! It's burning me a bit."

521
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:40,240
"€10 and I'll keep going."

522
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,480
Us guys are morons with huge potential.

523
00:24:44,120 --> 00:24:48,040
We should harness it to improve society.

524
00:24:48,120 --> 00:24:51,080
Imagine being in high school,
your teacher comes over and says,

525
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:54,120
"Jérémie, if you get a good grade,
I'll suck your dick."

526
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,280
Can you imagine the line at the library?

527
00:24:56,360 --> 00:24:58,760
"Let me in,
Mrs. Berthier's going to suck my dick."

528
00:24:58,840 --> 00:24:59,680
Can you imagine?

529
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:03,520
I mean, some people
became president doing that.

530
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:06,680
You're laughing, but it's true
when you think about it.

531
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:08,720
Thanks, guys.

532
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:10,080
Well done!

533
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:14,640
-So good.
-Fantastic!

534
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:17,920
-What a comedian. That was great. Wow.
-Thank you very much.

535
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,560
-Stay here, let's have a little chat.
-That was great.

536
00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:23,120
It was so great to watch.

537
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,560
That was so effortless,
it almost seemed too short.

538
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:29,320
-Everything's easy for him.
-Your style…

539
00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,800
I love the shirt, the shoes…
He did mean fashion, right?

540
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,640
-I love your smile.
-Great teeth.

541
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:37,760
-Thanks, man.
-So funny. Great.

542
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:40,080
-You were fantastic, well done.
-Nothing to add.

543
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:44,040
That was Antony Giuliani,
ladies and gentlemen.

544
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:46,200
You'll be hearing a lot about him.

545
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:49,400
-We'll see him again.
-We'll see him again, believe me.

546
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,920
I'll remember him!

547
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,640
-We want to keep Antony in.
-We want to keep him.

548
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,280
-I want to keep him for myself.
-For fun?

549
00:25:57,360 --> 00:25:58,440
No, for comedy.

550
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,560
To spend time with him.
"What are you up to?"

551
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:02,240
-"I'll come by your place."
-Have him.

552
00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:03,880
Okay, he's mine.

553
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,720
It looks like that's it. It's over.

554
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:08,720
-It's over.
-There's no one left, Ramzy.

555
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,640
Jonathan, what did you think
of our young comedians?

556
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:13,000
They're very talented.

557
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:17,400
They're extremely talented.
It's going to be a great season.

558
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:23,080
-In general, the level…
-Pretty good.

559
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:26,040
We issue a warning
when people aren't quite there.

560
00:26:26,120 --> 00:26:28,360
Appoline has a warning.

561
00:26:29,360 --> 00:26:33,440
Now, we're going to issue some warnings
to the acts who disappointed us.

562
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:38,720
I'm trying not to think
about the warnings, but it's hard not to.

563
00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:39,960
There's so much pressure.

564
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:45,360
They were really positive about me,
my timing, but not my actual performance.

565
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:47,800
Definitely a warning there.

566
00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:50,560
-I'd give them a chance.
-Give them a chance.
but not my actual performance.
