The last place in the ranking is shared by Jüri Ratas and Brigitte Susanne Hunt, who competed together in the dance show. “Sharing the same position with BSH says much more about Jüri Ratas than about Brigitte,” thinks Märt.
According to Anu, Ratas is an example for the nation due to his low weight and healthy lifestyle. “Such a pig gave birth to a hooligan, a man ten to fifteen years younger!”
The opinions of Anu and Märt diverge when it comes to assessing the influence of Brigitte Susanne Hund. “How much influence does she have when she’s behind the glass and the audience watches what she does next? BSH dramas turn out as if she were an entertainer by accident,” says Märt.
However, according to Anu, Brigitte is already influential because she is always talked about and people can only love or hate her. “There were times when I walked around naked and swam in baths of milk and whipped cream cakes. I was the most hated person in Estonia, but that meant I was also the most famous.”
The arrival in the rankings of the former EKRE president surprises the guests of the show, because he has no longer appeared in the media. “This cloak is now worn by her precious son, whom I affectionately call Marta,” says Märt.
If Märti is irritated by the rhetoric of EKRE politicians, Anu continues to praise him: “I had a wonderful evening with them. They are such nice, sweet treats!”
But why does Anu compare EKRE to the Grinch? Hear it in the show.
“I think Jaak Madison was exiled to Brussels by the rest of the party so as not to take over the leadership, for God’s sake,” thinks Märt. Although he has a very different worldview with Madison, he considers him a better EKRE leader than Martin Casco.
“But Jaak Madison doesn’t bother me at all. In the worst case scenario, I would have put Taavi Rõivas, who for us is a real party animal, in this position,” says Anu.
Podcastsyou can hear what Taavi Rõivas and BSH were doing together in the toilet.
7th place: Alar Karis
“A very cute teddy bear. A president like that is also nice for a change, because we have waves of cute and flashy heads of state,” says Anu.
Märti also had personal contact with Karis during university, he performed at a birthday party where Karis was also a guest. “Then he came up to me and praised her. She made a very good impression.”
What to think of the presidential couple’s clothing style: Hear it on the show.
6. koht: Joe Biden
“It takes a while,” says Märt.
“The old man is picky!” adds Anu.
Both admit that they may have voted for Joe Biden because he appeared in the media a lot. But if Anu and Märt could ask Biden anything, what would they ask him? “My God, what a difficult question! I owe you an answer,” says Märt.
“I would ask him what nutritional supplements he consumes and recommend a couple,” adds Anu.
5th place: Urmas Reinsalu
The new president of Isamaa has made the party the most popular in Estonia, and this success can be compared with the leadership of Mart Laar. However, Anu and Märt do not understand why people consider Urmas Reinsalu such an important person. “The year has been much longer than this man’s rise. I don’t know if it’s commendable that some men get up so slowly,” jokes Märt.
Anu recalls Reinsalu’s story, how in 2004 she went to the president’s reception with supermodel Carmen Kass. “Before that, she put on her glasses and took them off. Carmen told her to wear her glasses: they make you much smarter,” Anu laughs.
Anu doesn’t even want to say Putin’s name: “Voldemort! He’s the one whose name we won’t say. I would emphasize it as little as possible and in a very evil way.”
According to Märd, it is understandable that Putin is in a high position, because he has a very strong influence on the world. “Totally negative. All three or four versions of him.”
In the case of Zelensky, who beat Putin by just one vote, both Märt and Anu admit that his strength is beginning to wane. “When I see him on screen, I wonder how he is in full health and sanity,” says Anu.
He hopes that once the war with Russia is over, Zelenskyi will take a long vacation. “People of the world unite and then take him to the Isle of Palms with his wife. Bring him large quantities of champagne!”
You will also hear from the program whether Märt would like to become a prominent politician, like former comedian Zelenskii.
2nd place: Martin Helme
“Wow, Martha!” shouts Märt. She thinks that Martin Helme can hinder the work of Parliament, but politically he is helpless.
“They are still the best living actors. Nor do they think seriously about what they are doing on the political scene. They are completely normal people on a weekday – like me or you, Märt,” says Anu.
“And then they go to the media and say that they can’t renovate their villa because gays can get married,” adds Märt.
What Anu and Märt think about the night sessions of the Riigikogu, where deputies struggle with sleep and beer bottles – listen to this podcasts‘AND.
In addition to first place in the ranking drawn up by journalists “Eesti influenkate”, Kaja Kalla also obtained the popular vote. “You are very influential in the Russian and Western direction. You hate it or you love it, but in reality the first place is deserved,” says Märt.
When Kallas was involved in the Eastern Vedic scandal, it showed his true character in Anu’s mind: “Sneaky, arrogant, arrogant.” Also, Anu thinks that Kallas has no advisors behind him to help him make decisions. “He IS such a tough bastard that he shoots himself and thinks he is the ruler of the world!”
PodcastsYou will hear how Anu would have behaved in Kallas’ place, if her husband had done such foolish things. “Damn! This brother takes care of these things here for me! Ai raks, I’m going home now and…”
