Goyo Jiménez was in charge of adding a touch of humor this Tuesday to El hormiguero, where he went to chat with Pablo Motos about his show Aiguantulivinamerica 2 -the second installment of his saga of monologues about the American way of life-, which represents the of the week at the Teatro Capitol Gran Vía in Madrid.
"What a good greeting you have," said the presenter after his guest entered the set, who replied that "it is to see the public and those of us who are anxious and eager to have it would go to humor them."
Motos, after presenting Jiménez's show, commented that "now people say they need to laugh," to which his guest replied: "I notice that the public now comes to the show with more anguish and desire to laugh."
The comedian also wanted to emphasize that "every day I finish the show by applauding the audience and I ask them to go see other colleagues", in a clear sign of support for live shows.
"Do you have the objective of making the Aiguantulivinamerica trilogy?", the Valencian wanted to know, to which Jiménez commented that "I want to premiere the presentation of the third part in July and start in the fall with the trilogy with a function on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I will surely accompany it with a book to get to know America without having visited it".
To open his mouth, he reviewed some excerpts from his monologue where he talks about the differences between Spaniards and Americans: "There not even crime is the same, you can join an armed organization at any age and here you have to turn 18 to join any party "He commented, drawing laughter from the audience.
"We are not alike in the way we drive either because they use gear cars for illegal races and they have 17 gears, they don't have a co-driver because they need space for all of them," he said.
Motos also wanted to talk to his guest about social networks and his opinion of them: "Twitter is that nightclub where from time to time someone is killed, like that suburban urbanization where from time to time a dog barks and another answers ".
"On the contrary, Instagram is the good urbanization, there people are very candid, but don't fool me... Facebook is the place where everyone looks old except you; and Tiktok is like C. Tangana's clothes, which we see and say: What is that?, but people like it," he said with a laugh.
Another of the topics that dealt with Jiménez's curious obsession with hangers: "I have OCD, the hangers have to be all the same, put them in the same position and place the clothes by color in gradient. I have a problem with them..." , he admitted.
To conclude, the presenter wanted to know if, as a comedian, he had come to dream of jokes: "Yes, and wake up in the middle of the night to tell my wife to see if it is good. I have also come to dream of a series and get up at four in the morning to write it because it seemed like a great idea".
