Moderator and entertainer Karel Šíp in his book Do hrobu nevěu not only deals with mysteries, history and Karel Gott, but he also mentioned Jiřinka Bohdalová!
In the book To the Grave, Šíp writes, for example, about the art of standing in line, problematic anniversaries and landing on Mars. He looks at serious things with humor. “There are many reasons to laugh around us, you just need to recognize them correctly. I try to make sure that the happy things in my mind overwhelm the happy ones, which are unfortunately more and more,” he said.
Of the many artists he met during his lifetime, he devotes the most space to Karel Gott in the chapter Božský Karel and Jiřina Bohdalová (Monologues for Jiřina).
“I stabbed them because I collaborated with both of them as authors, they are not writers. Jiřina (Bohdalová) has asked me many times, I would have written a speech for various occasions, To this day, I will not forget how serious Karel thought when he turned to me with a request, saying that if he won by chance, he would have something to say, “said Šíp.
In the chapter Pests of Czech football, Šíp devotes himself to one of his greatest hobbies, which is football. Although he is the author of the text of the Spartan anthem Sing Who Are You a Spartan, like Ivan Trojan or Petr Janda, he goes to cheer on the rostrum of the Bohemians in Prague.
“My journey to Bohemka was ambiguous. We lived in Ostrava and Teplice, so I cheered for the local clubs. When I moved to Prague at the age of eighteen, we went to Sparta, but I was shaken once when she fired my favorite football player Josef Jurkanin. So I he started going to Bohemka with his friends, and I stayed true to this inconspicuous club, “he said.
