Is it true that happiness essentially consists of a little bit of health and a lot of bad memory? And if so, why isn't there an app for this yet? Gruber ponders whether sunsets are overrated or whether she simply has a burn-out or hypersensitization - triggered by a low-lactose tolerance intolerance? It explores the question of whether a child is capable of learning a trade, even though it is highly gifted? And: Are we all politically correct Corinthians* or is Monika's mom perhaps even happy when she has to call her "the parent" in a politically correct way in the future? One thing is certain in all of this: you can never please everyone and everything turns out differently than you think anyway, which ultimately doesn't matter, because: "There's always something"!
When you go to a stand-up show, the comedian is usually completely prepared. He or she knows 100 percent what to say, in what order the jokes should fall. Even when it seems like we're not on top of it, it's just part of the smokescreen. Every once in a while, some of us dive into the deep end of the pool, not knowing where it will end up. Do we drown or do we make the best dive, because when you get it right with improv, as we call it, it can be magical. Unfortunately, it's never really captured on camera, but ZULU has asked Christian Fuhlendorff to change that. That's why he throws himself off the seesaw, with no preparation, no ideas, just himself and his thoughts.
