سردنا مع الكوميدي نور حجار لنحكي عن الاوضاع الحالية التي تواجه المجتمع اللبناني وناقشنا مواضيع تتعلق بنوع الكوميديا الخاص بنور وردة فعل الاحزاب السياسية عليها.

ناقشنا الصراع بين الاضداد في المشهد السياسي، قوى الثورة والحزب ، وفن الكوميديا خلال جائحة الكورونا والثقافة الالغائية السائدة في لبنان، الفوضى، استعمال الجيوش الالكترونية والتعبئة العامة في الشارع كوسيلة لإسكات الناس

وسألنا نور ماذا يخبئ لنا المستقبل
