Sense of derision and sharp pen
In “Quelle Époque!”, broadcast every Saturday in the second part of the evening on France 2, the comedian invites himself twice to the table of Léa Salamé to unfold a humorous chronicle.
His sense of derision and his sharp pen won over viewers, in terms of comments on social networks and audience scores.
The kick-off recorded more than one million curious people, or 17.4% of the public.
A result at the top for this box occupied last season by “We are live”, presented by Laurent Ruquier and the host of the morning show of France Inter.
“I decided to stay with Léa because it's my loyal and sentimental side.
It was going well with her.
And then, a female laughter is always more sonorous and charming”
, considers Philippe Caverivière.

This talk show is in line with previous programs formerly embodied by Thierry Ardisson then Laurent Ruquier.
Politicians, artists, singers, writers and web stars rub shoulders for an evening punctuated by the presence of a comedian.
But this season, the arrival of Christophe Dechavanne in mechanics has whetted the appetite of night owls.
The ex-host of “Coucou c’est nous!”
occupies the permanent guest chair.
A place that allows him to intervene at any time in the program to take a look at a news item, and thanks to which he can conduct his own interview in the program.
During the first issue, Christophe Dechavanne chose to highlight Father Matthieu.
“I have been a total fan of this animator for a long time.
I am happy that life offers me this meeting
, confides the comic of the band, which also rages on the airwaves of RTL every morning, at 7:55 am.

In "The eye of Philippe Caverivière", he scratches the political guest and the news with a pitiless, but always benevolent look, which allows him to systematically control his slippages.
His column is held in the studio from which Yves Calvi wakes up listeners in the company of Amandine Bégot and Louis Bodin.
And sometimes, the political leader invited to the microphone of RTL is not necessarily in a laughing mood.
On May 30, Sports Minister Amélie Oudéa-Castéra was interviewed by journalist Alba Ventura.
At the time of "The eye of Philippe Caverivière", where the atmosphere is more relaxed, the representative of the government remained very serious.
"I don't know if she thought I was a journalist... She looked at me in dismay!
It was a shipwreck, but funny thanks to Louis Bodin and Yves Calvi
, “recalls Philippe Caverivière, who did not question his vocation as a comedian after this missed meeting.
The proof: he plans to write a show and go on stage.
