#106 - The Tim & Louis Show - Live from Viskla!

Comedy Guy with Louis Zezeran

We finally did it! We finally got our act together and recorded a podcast in the Estonian countryside!

Several weeks ago we found an article which announced that Viskla had won "Village of the Year" and Tim & I knew we had to go visit.

We drove the 40 mins south to find the Viskla Külakeskus which also happens to be an amazing center of Estonian kiiking. Kiiking is a genuine Estonian sport where someone stands (or rather, gets tied onto) on this huge swing and tries to go 360 degrees over the top.

On the day we arrived they were running a kiiking course and we got to see the swinging in action. It was rad. A nice lady took the time to explain the history of kiiking to us and gave us a tour of the külakeskus.

Tim and I recorded this episode outside, on a traditional wooden swing with bench seats and a table in the middle.

We got to talking about...

• Our day looking around Kose and Viskla
• The history of kiiking as the lady explained to us
• In nearby Palvere there is a farm where some bloke collects old military trucks. Where did he get them all?
• Trying to bribe the old lady at the bus stop with vodka
• Not once did we see Tanel Kiik
• Louis' theory on why Estonian surnames are often taken from nature
• The full story about Louis being hit by a car on his bike
• "PAIDE WAY", eh eh "by the way... PAIDE WAY" geddit??
• Dear foreigners: stop blaming racism when maybe you didn't try hard enough

This episode was tremendous fun for us to record. We will be doing more of these episodes from the countryside.

The episode is best viewed on the YouTube video, except I screwed up the first 23 mins of footage. The audio is good and I spliced in some b-roll of kids kiiking instead.
