Bob Wisse, the son of Caroline Tensen, has appeared quite drunk in Eva Jinek’s studio. He appears to have been fed half drunk by his well-known mother just before the broadcast.
Caroline Tensen appears on every program these days to talk about the menopause. She was with Eva Jinek a few weeks ago to chat about her transition book and she was already there a year and a half ago, but then to promote her transition documentary. That time her son Bob Wisse also accompanied her.
‘No that is not possible’
At Jinek, they were curious about Bob’s experiences, says Caroline in conversation with the Party. “When I went to Eva Jinek to promote the documentary, they wanted my son Bob in the studio as well. He wanted that. But I still thought: he will come back to that.”
Secretly, Caroline was a bit afraid of a dropout. “So I made it clear to him two days in advance that he couldn’t cancel, but it worked out. On the day itself: ‘Mom, I’m really not going to do it.’ I said that was not possible.”
Three gin and tonic
Caroline then got her son drunk and put pressure on her. “I threw three gin and tonics into him and told Eva Jinek that he was nervous. She reassured him and he did a great job.”
In the end, Bob was also satisfied. “Afterward, his phone filled with nice messages that he had done well and that his friends’ mothers had had the same thing, but as boys they had never talked about it.”
‘He’s fine with it’
Those messages did Bob good, according to Caroline. “All the more Bob realized how important it is that as a son he should have known what his mother was going through, and what can happen to a woman going through menopause.”
She concludes: “People still bring it up when he’s somewhere. He’s totally fine with that.”
