DÅÅÅ var det 2017

·1 hr·5 clips

Filip and Fredrik revisit a tense 2017 film shoot where a megaphone moment exposed their raw, humiliating dynamic.

The episode opens with Filip and Fredrik introducing a 2017 recording made during the filming of their feature film 'Tårtgeneralen' in Köping. They frame it as a time of sweaty, anxious, and fun recording days. The core conflict arises from a specific incident on the town square where Filip, holding a megaphone to address locals and extras, froze and failed to deliver a thankful or entertaining speech. Fredrik vividly describes taking the megaphone to mockingly announce that the square would be renamed 'Filip Hammars Torg' if Filip got his way, causing laughter at Filip's expense. This leads to a deeper discussion about their working relationship, with Filip feeling humiliated and Fredrik analyzing Filip's inability to handle the moment. The conversation then diverges into a tangent about Ingvar Oldsberg's bizarre business venture, Olds Beach, an indoor beach in Mölndal, which they critique as a strange celebrity investment. Later, Filip brings up a conspiracy theory book he received, claiming Olof Palme did not die in 1986 but was secretly whisked away to the French Alps after being swapped with a double, allegedly because he had AIDS. This sparks a broader debate about the appeal of conspiracy theories, referencing Elvis, 9/11, and the missing Malaysia Airlines flight. Throughout, they intermittently return to their irritation with Gotland vacation photos on social media, which Filip criticizes for promoting a false sense of geographical complexity and ruggedness. The episode includes sponsor reads for Unibet and Collector. They conclude by reflecting on how listening to the old episode reveals both change and consistency in their opinions, especially Filip's enduring hatred of Gotland.

En inspelning fran sommaren 2017 fungerar som ett tidsdokument over tva personer mitt i arbetet med sin forsta langfilm. Nar duon lyssnar tillbaka medan Torte Generalen fortfarande spelas in hamnar nerven i pressen runt projektet: svettiga dagar, oro, roliga stunder och behovet…
