Ich gebe Ihnen mein Ehrenwort! - Die Weltgeschichte der Lüge

Johann von Bülow, Walter Sittler
"I give you my word of honor!": The world history of lies

On average, a person lies 200 times a day. The lie is the cement of world history. The documents that founded the Papal States and made Hamburg a Hanseatic city - forged! Perhaps even half of the Middle Ages is an invention ... And then the 19th century - the great age of impostors! They sell the Eiffel Tower and the city of London in pieces. Not to forget that in the 20th century, of course, no one planned to build a wall in Berlin or had a "sexual relationship with that woman". Finally, the world history of lies!
After the overwhelming success of their reading in honor of Roger Willemsen and Dieter Hildebradt at the St. Pauli Theater in Hamburg, Walter Sittler (Hildebrandt) and Johann von Bülow (Willemsen) are now going on tour with their entertaining search for the truth about lies. Rearranged and gently updated, they throw scandalous untruths and devious intrigues around. Much to the entertainment of the audience, who will probably be a few illusions poorer after this evening.

"Great fun. Willemsen and Hildebrandt reloaded with the two popular TV stars."
SITTLER: "Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry that we haven't been able to give you better news about our species. I'm also sorry because I've taken you to my heart."
BÜLOW: "Oh my goodness."
SITTLER: "It hurts to have to give such good people bad news."
