TV MAGAZINE. - Telling funny stories in a relaxed atmosphere, is this your paradise?
Jean-Marie BIGARD.
-
Exactly.
We tell the jokes we want without being censored.
It is a rather rare space of freedom that we are lucky to still have.
I have five notebooks of 500 jokes.
I treasure this treasure!
All this is very well arranged and it makes me an inexhaustible storyteller of funny stories.
Many people ask me how I remember the jokes I compile.
In fact, I am incapable of forgetting any.

: Jean-Marie Bigard annoyed by Gilles Verdez in "Do not touch my post!"
What's the funniest thing you're going to tell in the new issue of "La Grosse Rigolade"?
I think I attack with one that I had never done.
These are two guys who argue strongly.
One said to the other: “Jean-Pierre, look at me when I talk to you!
Why did you sleep with her?
Explain me why?
Answer!”
The other said to him, “Listen, there she was, naked, lying in front of me.
We were alone, what was I supposed to do?
The first guy responds: “The autopsy, Jean-Pierre!”
A funny story is like a movie: there is a beginning, a middle and an end and it is at the moment of the fall that we must trigger the laughter.
It's wonderful to be able, in a few minutes, to make a friend laugh.
The most wonderful tool, it
“I repeat my jokes all night long”
Jean-Marie Bigard, guest of "Buzz TV".
What are the secrets of a good storyteller?
What is certain is that whoever tells it is more important than the joke.
A rotten joke, I rework it.
I turn shit into Nutella!
I know that when I participate in the “Big Heads”, Laurent Ruquier expects me to intervene between five and ten times.
I make my little selection and all night, I repeat them in a loop and add some news elements, or not.
It's music, and you don't miss a note in the symphony that you're playing, even if it lasts more than two minutes.
All the silences must be in their place to be able to bounce back and head towards the fall which causes a cascade of laughter.
If you omit something, if you trip over the carpet, you can shit the joke!
Has this ever happened to you?
Yes.
That's why I love the shortest jokes.
For example, a guy says to another: “I never asked you the question but, in your opinion, how much does a fart weigh?”.
He replies: "It weighs nothing... It's gas!"
The first concludes: "Well, I did in my pants then..." It's short, it's effective and it's hard to miss.

Are you referring to all your positions taken during the yellow vests movement and the Covid-19 crisis?
Exactly!
I no longer want to criticize and open my nostrils to get angry like a raging bull.
Robert Lamoureux once reported to me the words of Sacha Guitry, who confided to him: "One day, I saw myself angry and I thought I was so ugly that, since then, I have never put myself in that state again- the".
“Never again will I be angry”
Jean-Marie Bigard, guest of "Buzz TV".
Do you find yourself ugly when you get angry?
Yes, I find myself hateful.
People like it because they like to see guys banging on the table and yelling.
But I don't do it anymore!
It heals.
My wife coached me a lot on that… Mea culpa.
I will never do this again because I am no longer credible.
Even if what you say is completely right and you're on the right track, it's useless because we no longer want to listen to you and hear you.
