Any pressure for this first concert of “Special Bodies”?
Iggy: If the first concert had to be somewhere, it would be in Elche, in a land we admire, everything must be said… You’ve been to Elche a lot, Eva.
Eva: I’ve never been to Elche in my life…
Iggy: Don’t mind him. Elche is our favorite country where Eva went to baptize her children.
Eva: Let’s see, I’ve never been to Elche but I really want to be. I was told it was a very good party and very nice people.
Iggy: Seriously. It is one of the best audiences for comedy in Spain. And I say this without the slightest irony.
Iggy, what advice would you give to Eva who is debuting with Elche?
Iggy: You have to go straight to the heart. The people of Elche are very friendly people; The heart is its main organ. So you have to go straight to the heart.
Eva: Well, I think we’ve already done that, because there’s so much love to do on this radio show. And everyone who will come is students… our audience. We will even wear tracksuits so that they feel at home with us and say ‘he is our people’.
Iggy: Warning to all units in Elche: You can come in sweatpants!
Eva: But the sweatpants are well made.
Iggy: No, really: we look forward to meeting all of our Europa FM listeners. But you know we’re doing all this for you to be happy. Here comes the flirting guys!
And what will the audience of “Special Bodies Live Show” see on stage?
Iggy: They’re going to watch a three hour show, they’re going to go crazy, Jota Music is coming, Varry Brava is coming, Alba Reche is coming…
Eva: Alba Elche!… It’s going to be crazy.
Iggy: Lala Chus is coming too. We’re really a little worried about what’s going to happen at Elche this week.
What do you want from the public for this first live show of “Special Bodies”?
Eva: Bringing us ice cream, because they always bring us breakfast or something, but some ice cream… would be great.
How do you get up early every day to present the show? Are there any tricks to make it better?
Eva: Yes, forgetting your previous life, thinking that you have a son you have to take care of every day…
Iggy: And in Eva Soriano’s case, getting up early is good news because she’s sleeping more than usual. Before “Special Organs,” what he did was not sleep. She usually went to bed at six in the morning. With that, now, like it or not, he has to go to sleep a while ago.
Eva: I don’t have a social life and I’m forced to put aside certain parts of my life that I used to adore and can no longer have.
Iggy: I mean, every new “Special Bodies” listener is a new boyfriend for Eva.
And now it’s serious. What do you think of each other?
Iggy: Let’s see, as comedians, you know that being serious takes us out of our comfort zone, but I can sum it up with what I said to Eva a few days ago: “With the good times you’ve given me for 20 years. One hour a week, how do I reckon with the day you screwed me up a bit!
Eva: One day I can sum it up in one thing I said to him: “I love you.” But just one day, I’m too little to show affection.
Iggy: He said to me, “I love you… and I’m managing for the next three years.”
Eva: Actually, I gave him a little hug too. So we’re two people who love each other, we appreciate each other, and we’re good friends outside of work. People laugh at us because we’re two colleagues talking… and we get paid for it. Who doesn’t love getting paid to talk to a colleague at the bar? That’s what we accomplished.
Any advice you give each other coaching…
Iggy: Eva, now is the time you need to focus and put all your effort into advancing your career, and above all my career; because I will cling to you like an obstacle even if you are exhausted.
Eva: I can’t advise Iggy because she does everything right. Son of a bitch is 36 and look at her skin. You can’t give him advice, he’s kind of obnoxious. Many times they ask us who is the youngest and I think “ho, really?”.
Iggy: It’s collagen. I throw collagen.
Eva: Have you already pierced something?
