Comedy
Ari Eldjárn is maybe the most famous Icelandic comedian outside of Iceland. He's been on the BBC, all around Europe, and drops into New York to tell jokes all over the city before flying back to his island nation after all the pillaging he did on stage. We talk through how he got into comedy, the development of modern comedy in Iceland, and then we go down the rabbit hole talking about some inside baseball comedy stuff. It's interesting to see how much influence American comedy has had around the world, and how each place takes the art form and makes it its own. Ari is definitely a player in that game.
