"Yes We Have No Bananas" & Bananas
Description
Today we see what was the most popular song from exactly 100 years ago in 1923. And wow, it's weird. But it's nicely rooted in the history and culture of the time and tells us a lot about ethnicity, comedy, and the precarious fate of the banana at the time. So we dive into all that.
Additionally we give you the history and etymology of banana of course. And we talk about its relation to comedy and why 'bananas' means crazy, and so on.
In Eurovision, we discuss the top 6 funniest Eurovision songs of all time. I won't tell you which ones though, you'll have to listen to found out.
