Les 2 Minutes du Peuple ("The 2 Minutes of the People") is a series of comedic radio skits by Quebecois humorist François Pérusse. Its Quebec French version debuted on radio in 1990, and its French version in 1996. In Europe they ended in 2012, while in Québec they "ended" in 2016, only to be followed by a virtually identical Spiritual Successor called "Pérusse Express" (which slightly focuses more on news both local and worldwide).Each skit is about two-minutes long, and tackles subjects such as everyday situations, the life of historical characters, current events, and parodies of TV shows, game shows, songs, and celebrities. The series dialogue is a never-ending Hurricane of Puns mixed with some Surreal Humor, and is most remembered for its sped-up high-pitched voices, which enforced its Rapid-Fire Comedy.Pérusse has also produced several albums called "L'Album du Peuple" ("The People's Album"). They're a compilation of various radio sketches remixed by the author, sometimes they're slightly longer, shorter, or different. The albums also contain funny songs. He has also created a few TV shows in Quebec. | |

The Gambling Addict: Around 2007 Pérusse made a lot of fake public service announcements parodying real ones by the government of Québec that address gambling problems. | |

Self-Plagiarism: Pérusse regularly reuses jokes or plots in Europe and his native Québec. Sometimes a joke that was used years ago will resurface. Pérusse himself mentioned that after a few decades of producing content eventually you run out of original puns. | |

Subliminal Seduction: Parodied with the Guy Who Shops who calls his cellphone service provider to cancel his mobile phone package. The employee on the line puts him on hold, with the "phone hold" music just being "la-la-laaaas" sung by Pérusse with random "don't cancel your phone service or you're an asshole" messages thrown in with no subtlety. | |

My Friends... and Zoidberg: The CEO of Zero Music (the real life label that publishes the Albums du Peuple) makes an appearance in a meta sketch to promote the upcoming Pirate Album (released between the fifth and sixth tomes). He mentions that François Pérusse is one of the most pirated artist in the French-speaking world, with his sketches being downloaded in Quebec, France, Belgium, Switzerland, Cameroon and Otterburn Park note A town of around 8000 people in Quebec. | |

Pay Evil unto Evil | |
| Les 2 Minutes du Peuple (Radio) / int_1d18887f | comment |
Pay Evil unto Evil: Played for Laugh; In "Columbo du Peuple", most murders will open with the future victim abusing their would-be assassins to ludicrous extreme, making it blatantly obvious who will get killed and why. Most memorably, one story opens with a woman insulting her husband before informing him she is going out with another richer man, that she cheated on him with all his friends and enemies as well as his boss, the butcher and pretty much everyone else, she thinks he has a small penis, she damaged his car, she doesn't want to do it tonight because she got a headache, and she regrets taking this Life Assurance that'll grant him 15 million dollars when she'll die. Cue the narrator daring us to guess who will die in this story. | |

Government Agency of Fiction | |
| Les 2 Minutes du Peuple (Radio) / int_33affa42 | comment |
Government Agency of Fiction: Whenever a government ministry is mentioned, it's usually a mix of normal ministerial stuff like "environment" or "tourism" mixed with something absurd like "motel that went bankrupt 5 years ago". Sometimes it's just the absurd stuff. For instance, a fake Public Service Announcement against texting and driving is a message of the Ministry of Poof Right in the Phone Pole. A meeting of the Liberal Party of Québec involves various ministers getting in trouble like the Minister of Natural Resources, Boring Rocks and Dandelion Fluff or the Minister of Agriculture, Education, Compulsive Gambling and Warts Stuff. | |

Stylistic Suck: "Chanson fausse" (cf. Exactly What It Says on the Tin). Occurs very frequently as a source of humor. Pérusse mentioned that it's much harder to deliberately play music badly in a convincing way, than to play properly. | |

One In-Universe joke told by the Dreadful Musician who works in bars involve a torture in Hell where demons set fire to your ballsack and you need to extinguish it with a crowbar. Said torture is the merciful alternative to the other torture offered in Hell - being in a room with a bar musician who plays a mini-organ. | |

Greasy Spoon: Described in graphic detail in the song Snack Bar Chez Raymond, a tiny snack bar built out of half of a schoolbus, "Situe entre deux villages creux, drette su'l bord d'la 132." ("located between two nowhere towns, smack on the side of the 132") | |

Paper-Thin Disguise | |
| Les 2 Minutes du Peuple (Radio) / int_48b9731f | comment |
Paper-Thin Disguise: In one of the "Columbo du Peuple" segments, the murderer somehow manages to disguise his wife's corpse as a phone. It actually seems to work, but backfires when Columbo finds the actual phone in his trash can and presumes it to be his wife, leaving the murderer unable to deny it without admitting the actual corpse isn't the real phone. | |

Body Horror | |
| Les 2 Minutes du Peuple (Radio) / int_504a1991 | comment |
Body Horror: Played for Laughs in the "radio communautaire" sketches, where the incompetent host presents musicians who suffered some outlandish absurd accidents that damaged their bodies. Examples include Tata Boutlamine, an African pianist who plays with only one finger following a coffee grinder accident, Half-a-Papa-Joe, a blues singer who sawed himself in half vertically in a sawmill accident and now can only sings half of his lyrics and Adélbert Gadbois, who sings without a jaw after he confused a power saw with a toothbrush. Back when he was alive, Michael Jackson was the butt of jokes where he falls apart or is rotting alive. Captain Kirk suffers a Teleporter Accident in a Star Trek parody. He's apparently been inverted and he can only mumble, but McCoy advises him not too out of fear he'll damage his boots trying to speak. Spock jokes that he's not Captain Kirk anymore but Kirkptain Ki. One episode of a talk show features the story of a woman who suffered various unfortunate accidents and eventually had her nervous system amputated, and even her intuition had to be amputated at some point. She's supposed to visit the show's host soon, someone will bring her in inside a small cardboard box. . In Tome 5 there are baseball commentators who wish good luck to the cousin of one player who's about to have his rib cage surgically removed. There's also a mention of a player's grandmother having a rare disease called a "cistite" where you burp, fart and shit by both ends. Many of the patients in the Hospital Soap Opera sketches have these kind of issues. As always, it's Played for Laughs. | |

Author Appeal | |
| Les 2 Minutes du Peuple (Radio) / int_6627695f | comment |
Author Appeal: Pérusse puts in a lots of references to things he likes in his sketches, like hockey, the music industry, Star Trek, the Beatles, the Rolling Stones... He was fascinated by advertising from a young age, and would make parody ads for fun when he was little. One of his first claim to fame was doing advertisement for an album by a Québec singer, and several of his sketches feature joke advertisements. With his fame from the Deux Minutes du Peuple he's been hired by real companies to make real advertisements. Criticisms of the overexposure of children to sexually-loaded or otherwise unwholesome content crop up in more recent works, around the time François Pérusse became a father in real life. Cracks at extended warranties pop up often, apparently Pérusse considers them a scam. | |

He eventually reveals that he doesn't bite people in the neck but in the ass, and the whole thing is a misunderstanding due to the Romanian accent of witnesses that Bram Stoker interviewed (The French word for "neck" ("cou") is phonetically close to the French word for "ass" ("cul")). | |

Everything Talks: Well not everything, but a lot of things talk. In one sketch a vacationing couple is worried they left a burner on the stove on as one of them checks their phone messages. The stove left them a message letting them know they left two burners on. The "Apicerie" Explanation A corruption of the French word "épicerie", a grocery store is a show about grocery shopping and frequently interviews food like asparagi, hot-dog sausages and a palm tree (for its "heart of palm"). "Rénovons avec Gaetan", a renovation show, often showcase talking tools as a Running Gag, like a beam detector or a talking saw (which screams "yumyumyum cherry wood that's so good yumyum" when they make it cut cherry wood and also warns "careful about your fingers!" whenever your fingers get too close for safety). | |

I Don't Like the Sound of That Place: Parodied in the "Slangster Resort" note Not to be confused with Slangster House segments, which are European series where a couple is vacationing in a town called "Saint-bloodthirsty gooey thing with three rows of teeth" and they need to find a street called "Half-eaten corpse with the Devil's cock in its mouth". | |

Mistaken for Racist: In one of the sketches parodying L'amour est dans le pré note A romantic reality TV show where city women visit young bachelor farmers hoping to fall in love with them a woman of Asian origins complain that the farmer always talk about her "yellow butt" ("Derrière jaune" in French). The farmer explains that he's not talking about her yellow butt but about his "John Deer" tractor ("John Deer" and "derrière jaune" are relatively close phonetically in Quebec French). | |

| Les 2 Minutes du Peuple (Radio) / int_8042e814 | comment |
Actually Pretty Funny: There is this sketch where a thief contacts the director of the Caisse de Dépôt et Placements du Québec Quebec Deposit and Investment Fund via phone in the middle of the night and gloats about how he stole an unspecified large amount of money. The director protests that this is the "deposit fund" belonging to average joes, and the thief replies it looks more like a "withdrawal fund" right now, which makes both guys laugh. Régis Labeaume (current mayor of Québec City as of November 2020) finds out Elvis Presley's hiding spot to convince him to come play in a concert in Québec City. Elvis is originally pretty pissed, but when Régis starts cracking puns on Elvis' songs and old age, Elvis starts cracking some too. Gilles Micro's interview with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi starts off with this, and the skit turns into both interviewer and intervewee doing silly wordplay with Yogi's name, transcendental meditation and other subjects to each's delight. | |

Artistic License – Law Enforcement | |
| Les 2 Minutes du Peuple (Radio) / int_8a8f37f9 | comment |
Artistic License – Law Enforcement: A guy who makes hotdogs in a Costco applies for a job at the FBI, which is described as a "secret service" handling foreign intelligence, rather than a federal police force. The FBI agent doing the job interview also mentions they suspect Vladimir Putin to be creating a new KGB. This is redundant, since the Russian Federation already has a successor to the KGB, the FSB. And there's no way a FBI agent would just tell that to a potential recruit. The recruiter does mention that you need prior experience with intelligence or police work, or you start really from the bottom of the ladder. In reality you need both prior experience and a college degree. And to top it all off the recruiter then tells the guy they have a "small" case they could give him involving an Al-Qaeda front operating in Washington D.C. | |

He uses his omniscience to know that Elvis Lives, and where he's hiding, so he can invite him to perform in a concert in Québec with Paul McCartney. | |

For Inconvenience, Press "1" | |
| Les 2 Minutes du Peuple (Radio) / int_a4328a91 | comment |
For Inconvenience, Press "1": Used twice with insurance company phone directories. One of them has normal "for X, press Y" options and ends with "for a reclamation, get lost" Context in original French For these kind of phone directories, "press one" would be explained as "faites-le un", literally "do the one". "Get Lost" in the original context was "Faites de l'air" (literally "do some air") which has the same connotation. Notice the use of the verb "faites" (the verb "to do", conjugated in the imperative second person plural) in both cases. as its final option. The other one has absurd options like "for an imbroglio, press 1, for a huge fuckup, press 2, for a goddamn mess, press 3". | |

| Les 2 Minutes du Peuple (Radio) / int_a8abe9d1 | comment |
Separated by a Common Language: Some skits have French and French Canadian versions. "Vive l'amour" ("Celebrate Love", 3 minutes of as many insults as the singer can cram in) is remarkable in that it illustrates the profound differences in themes in both countries: the French ones are scatological or sexual, the French Canadian ones sounds (to the French) like they came from a playground or a church inventory. | |

Toxic, Inc.: "Associated Devils And Destructive For The Humanity Incorporated" is a polluting company trying to buy advertising to get a better public image. They take this trope to a ridiculous extreme. The company manufactures something that sounds like "Aydersgilf", which is radioactive, not biodegradable, cancer-inducing, completely useless and can eventually blow up in your face and clone your credit card. A conference on climate change and the environment is financed by a company called ToxoPro, manufacturer of all kinds of toxic wastes. The conference speaker even has to say their slogan. | |

Fate Worse than Death: An in-universe joke involves two torture rooms in Hell, one has you Buried Alive in raw sewage for an hour, after which they take you out, set fire to your ballsack and you have to extinguish it with a crowbar, after which you're plunged in the sewage again, rinse and repeat. The other room has you be forced to listen to a Dreadful Musician from a lousy cocktail lounge who plays (poorly) a cheap electronic organ. Everyone who goes to Hell chooses the former room. | |

He uses his omniscience to know that Elvis Lives, and where he's hiding, so he can invite him to perform in a concert in Québec with Paul McCartney. | |

Elvis Lives: Used a few times. In one sketch he's a part of a concert (broadcasting live from his hiding spot to do back vocals) at the Centre Bell in Montréal, where a little-known singer is performing on-stage as the main act, accompanied by the Spice Girls in the nude, Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson who resurrects on stage. In another Régis Labeaume (mayor of Québec City) manages to somehow guess his hiding spot, and talks him into performing in Québec City with Paul McCartney. | |

Ass Shove: One Blues singer featured on a "radio communautaire" English Community Radio is dying of some weird illness and had an harmonica installed in his ass so he can keep playing since he can't play normally anymore. In one Columbo du Peuple episode, the one where the guy disguises his dead wife as a phone, it's Implied the murderer plugs in the phone line in her ass, judging by the fart noise heard. A radio ad for a bakery, "The Bakery Behind My House", is about visiting an old lady's house so she puts pastries in your behi-. Another ad for a lousy kindergarten brags that their staff watch TV while your toddlers shove crayons up their asses.

Self-Deprecation: One sketch features a "has-been" singer who makes lame and repetitive songs, we get to hear them and they're basically remixed versions of Assis-sur mon tracteur, a song Pérusse made for the 6th Album du Peuple. Characters will sometimes break the fourth wall to comment on the quality of their puns and jokes. Pérusse loves to crack jokes at his own expense, both in his capsules and in real life. In one sketch for instance the characters ask if the one voicing them is "that huge moron" (all of Pérusse's characters are voiced by him). | |

He's a complete Jerkass who makes catcalls to female employees, fires 500 employees a week For the Evulz, hires Asiatic children to work without pay in a sweatshop and occasionally makes them trip just for fun. His company manufactures completely useless, radioactive, cancer-inducing garbage that can explode in your face and clone your credit card. He even goes out of his way to grab recycling bins, put them in his car and throws the content to the trash. The sketch he's featured in revolves around him trying to buy PR for his company. | |

Bad Guy Bar: A certain sketch revolves around a mild-mannered musician playing (poorly) in a vicious outlaw biker bar (where the background noises are constant burps, farts and punches). His first statement is an announcement to the owner of a "Harley-Davidson, who's fuel tank is decorated with a woman's sex, of which the two labias are slightly spread by the former's fingers" that his motorcycle had a 12-gauge shotgun shell fired at it. He goes on to play and is interrupted by a guy gently asking that he plays something better or get lost. The musician tells him "eat shit, fat sack with the same family name". Immediately, without skipping a beat, the background noises is replaced by harps playing, and the musician wonders "why am I floating on a cloud with these winged people?" | |

The "Fun" in "Funeral": So many! One funeral had the dead man's best friend sings an upbeat silly song to cheer up everyone which only results in making people cry and the priest eventually steps in and asks him to go sit back in the pews. And there's another one where the family's artist recites a serious poem, and the audience asks for more but the only other material he has is a vulgar poem. Hilarity Ensues. | |

| Les 2 Minutes du Peuple (Radio) / int_e6558beb | comment |
Artistic License – Space: An European sketch involving the mission control for a Mars probe (correctly) states that the distance between Mars and the sun is around 230 000 000 kilometers. One of the astronomers asks if this means the probe won't risk being attracted into the Sun's orbit. In practice it's surprisingly hard to crash something into the Sun, since this would require cancelling a lot of orbital velocity (around 30 km/s if you're in Earth's orbit), and any professional astronomer would know this. Another European sketch features a malfunctioning space shuttle drifting away from the Earth. It's impossible to just "drift" away from Earth unless you deliberately fire up your engines to accelerate in the prograde direction. | |

Groin Attack: There is this memorable skit in the 7th album where a guy wearing a fancy tuxedo accidentally zips himself in the scrotum and his buddy has to help him out by moving his dick out of the way with his mouth. It turns out to be an elaborate plot to save himself some money by getting his dick sucked for free by a friend instead of for 200$ by a prostitute. In an European police sketch, the Cowboy Cop interrogates an accomplice by squeezing his balls, and the accomplice then talks in a very high-pitched tone. One In-Universe joke told by the Dreadful Musician who works in bars involve a torture in Hell where demons set fire to your ballsack and you need to extinguish it with a crowbar. Said torture is the merciful alternative to the other torture offered in Hell - being in a room with a bar musician who plays a mini-organ. | |

Chez Restaurant: The song Snack Bar Chez Raymond is about a particularly nasty junk food restaurant. Notably, with Pérusse being francophone, this trope is not about a fancy restaurant but a Greasy Spoon instead, which reflects reality more. | |

Buried Alive | |

Buried Alive: Nearly happens to some Dreadful Musician playing in a crummy bar who says he wants to be buried with his electronic organ. The crowd goes crazy and attempts to climb on the stage to do just that. | |

Haunted House | |
| Les 2 Minutes du Peuple (Radio) / int_f9439c84 | comment |
Haunted House: The "Slangster House" segments focus on a couple moving to an old country house that happens to be haunted. However, said haunting mostly come in the form of ghosts and undead showing up at their home to make terrible puns and otherwise be annoying. | |

Running Gag | |
| Les 2 Minutes du Peuple (Radio) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
"Rénovons avec Gaetan", a renovation show, often showcase talking tools as a Running Gag, like a beam detector or a talking saw (which screams "yumyumyum cherry wood that's so good yumyum" when they make it cut cherry wood and also warns "careful about your fingers!" whenever your fingers get too close for safety). | |

Easy Evangelism: Exaggerated in one of the European police sketches where the criminal is a cult leader who calls the police department and manages to convert the cops in a few words. | |

Wacky Cravings: Two cops in one of the police sketches are bored in a patrol car and discuss a gruesome story about a pregnant woman one heard on the radio that morning. They turn out the radio and it turns the gruesome story is a pregnant woman ate disgusting food combinations like chewing gum dipped in salad dressing or dill pickles and bananas. | |

Evil, Inc. | |
| Les 2 Minutes du Peuple (Radio) / int_ff934825 | comment |
"Associated Devils And Destructive For The Humanity Incorporated" is a polluting company trying to buy advertising to get a better public image. They take this trope to a ridiculous extreme. The company manufactures something that sounds like "Aydersgilf", which is radioactive, not biodegradable, cancer-inducing, completely useless and can eventually blow up in your face and clone your credit card. | |

Shown Their Work | |
| Les 2 Minutes du Peuple (Radio) / int_ffad4e9f | comment |
An European sketch involving the mission control for a Mars probe (correctly) states that the distance between Mars and the sun is around 230 000 000 kilometers. One of the astronomers asks if this means the probe won't risk being attracted into the Sun's orbit. In practice it's surprisingly hard to crash something into the Sun, since this would require cancelling a lot of orbital velocity (around 30 km/s if you're in Earth's orbit), and any professional astronomer would know this. | |
