LIVE

I’m not gonna lie, this is probably my favourite episode from Evening Urgant. This is a bit from the interview with Stephen Colbert.

What are they talking about?
Stephen and Ivan are referring to the so called ‘White Nights’ (Белые ночи),which Saint-Petersburg is famous for. It’s a night when it is never properly dark. The White Nights’ season usually takes place from June 11th to July 2nd.
By ‘the bridges’ Ivan meant the Palace Bridge, which draws at 1:10 AM and 3:10 AM.

My world is ruining

But still sun is shining and spring will come

Nobody wants this war
