The 69-year-old Youp van ‘t Hek puts Maarten van Rossem through the wringer, ten years his senior. According to the comedian, it is incomprehensible that Maarten continues to appear in every radio and TV program. “I am very little on television. I’m also always surprised by a number of colleagues, like: hey, there he is again,” he says in the podcast MICHA.

K*t marriage

Youp actually thinks it’s a bit sad. “Then I think: either you have such a marriage that you try to be away from home every night… I’m talking about an oldie now. I’m not naming names. I then think: hey, there he is again. I always shout through the house when someone like that is on TV again: ‘Come downstairs, Maarten van Rossem is on TV!’”

He continues: “Then I think: Maarten, what is it?! It doesn’t matter what it’s about: model railway trains… He’s having a nice chat. I wish him well and I also think that he is a wise man for many Dutch people, but then I think, on those few evenings that I am free: what is that anyway.

Vanity

Isn’t it just vanity? “I think too. But so am I. We all are. But everyone should know for themselves. Like I don’t do it and someone else does.”

He concludes: “I am the greatest liberal; everyone should do what they like.”
