Maxi Gstettenbauer — COMPLETELY ABSURD

Comedy is now a minefield. What else can you laugh about? This is a case for Maxi Gstettenbauer — the reliable demining agent among comedians.

Many think satire is a fine blade, but he prefers the axe. Why the fine foil when the chainsaw does it?

With a timing that even watches are jealous of, Gstettenbauer has elevated himself to one of the country's top comedians.

Privileged, heterosexual and maximally avoiding sports, the black-humorous father strangles the diaphragm of the Republic. And so skillfully that you wonder whether you shouldn't ban white men directly. Gstettenbauer doesn't wait for permission, he simply grants it to himself — in consultation with his wife.

The liberating roundhouse kick of German comedy is COMPLETELY ABSURD. Hard gags, high speed — right in the middle of life. And it affects everyone who deserves it. It's much nicer to hand out when you're the biggest joke yourself.
