Once upon a time... "The other day..." is his catchphrase, his trademark: the expression that introduces each of his sketches. A true storyteller of everyday life, Olivier de Benoist recounts with verve and finesse his life experiences inspired by his family, the world of work, society... all of which are inexhaustible sources of jokes and anecdotes with highly laughable potential. With this man who defines himself as a popular comedian with a script, routine always turns into an adventure novel. A one-man show designed especially for Comédie+, so you can say... "The other day, I laughed so hard!" Recorded on June 25, 2025, at the Théâtre des Sources in Saint-Amand-les-Eaux, in the Hauts-de-France region, for the benefit of the Canal+ Group's Comédie+ channel.

A dive into the heart of sketches by comedians who poke fun at our quirks, our foibles, and our habits, making us laugh with talent at who we are, us French people! France is as much in the comedians' sights as it is in their hearts. Playing on our behaviors, over time they have become the best observers of France and our lives. Who loves well, chastises well! Beyond self-deprecation, it is certainly out of love that our comedians tease France, its culture, its regions, and its inhabitants.
