We run it on QI a few years ago, which was, there's no such thing as a fish.

It's not the nice, such thing as a fish.

No, seriously, it's in the Oxford Dictionary of Underwater Life.

It says it right there, first paragraph, no such thing as a fish.

Hello and welcome to another episode of no such thing as a fish, a weekly podcast coming to you

from the QI offices in Covenant Garden. My name is Dan Treiber.

I'm sitting here with three other QI elves, Andy Murray, Anichezinski, and on our fact-checking

duty today, James Harkin. Once again, we're gathering around the microphone to share our

favorite facts from the last seven days and joining us today is a special guest, a comedian from Belgium.

Leven Scheire. Hi, hi. How's it going? Well, very good. I'm here. So that's great.

Yeah, we're very excited to have you here. Leven is basically the Stephen Fry Belgium.

You have a show out there called Skierer in the Creation, which is a panel show in which you have

sort of comedians as well as interesting guests from all sorts of categories, wine tasteers.

That's the one I saw. Yeah, yeah, it's a panel show. It's much like QI, you know.

I think I secretly want to make QI in Belgium. And now I have to find a channel that wants to host it.

Just remember, you got to headline the gig at CERN, right? Yes, that was last summer.

I was performing at CERN, which was absolutely amazing being a physicist, stand-up comedian.

Yeah, I could do all my geeky jokes. That's great. All right, should we kick into it? Should we get

fact number one on the way? Okay. Fact number one, we're going to start with you, Leven.

Yes, my fact is that during the Second World War, the Nazis employed two official Nazi comedians.

That's a starter, Shig. Yeah, they were called Trann und Heller and they did funny sketches.

And I think Trann was the fat stupid one. And then Heller would be the perfect man.
