I don’t even know anymore who went the previous talk show war, except that he was probably won by today Inside, which is actually more talking group than talk show. During a talk show war, the winners talk about the losers. Once losing you can never win a talk show war again. The loser’s death struggle is closely followed in other talk shows. It is when looking at a dying animal. I watched RTL Tonight on Tuesday evening because I heard from all sides that it is so bad. I was not too bad. Het aangeschoten programma leek zich met Rob Jetten en Sander Schimmelpennick achter de desk zelfs een beetje op te richten, maar toen Astrid Holleeder het gebitje en de feestneus demonstreerde waarmee ze vroeger, in de tijd voordat RTL Tonight haar voor veel geld contracteerde, vermomd de straat op ging en presentator Humberto Tan daarvoor applaus vroeg aan het ingehuurde publiek op de steile tribune, als voor een circusbeer die On a tricycle, I have stumbled through the slopes, I knew it is too late. It is waiting for the grace shot, after which the same company sits down at a round table a few days later, which will probably be a success.

Talking in talk shows about other talk shows that are in danger of failing or already failed all the other news presses into the background. It is that or relate to reality. It is not for nothing that people find the old Angela de Jong who in it Ad wrote about talk shows nicer than the new Angela de Jong who suddenly tries to relate to the real world. For years she prepared thoughtlessly one -pan dishes in her kitchen, now she doesn’t seem to know what to put in her shopping bag.

No, I will take it smarter.

Last Monday I talked about a talk show in a talk show with a woman who talks about talk shows every day. I don’t even know exactly what I thought. It doesn’t matter either. I have spent the precious time until the next war with nothing. My Brabant mother, God had her soul, would have said what she always slipped Sonja Barend if she looked at a chat program without dentures: “It’s a gèèn praot, moar the praot anyway.” Her annoyances about nothing kept her vital for years.
