Sarah Palin gets punked when a Canadian comedy duo prank calls her pretending to be the President of France. The amazing thing is, she never gets that the joke’s on her…
Cultural translations courtesy of Ben Smith:
- The first man on the call (introducing Sarkozy) presents himself as “Frank L’Ouvrier”: Frank The Worker.
- When he talks about going hunting by helicopter, and says “like we say in French, ‘On pourrait tuer des bébés phoques aussi’: “We could kill some baby seals, too”.
- He asks her if she has met the prime minister of Quebec, “Richard Z. Sirois” (instead of Jean Charest) : Richard Z. Sirois was one of the well-known comedians of “Rock et Belles Oreilles”, a French Canadian comedy group (started in 1981, dissolved in 1995). Sirois is now co-host of the show “Les cerveaux de l’info” at that radio station.
