While all polls predicted the far-right Vox Party to sweep Spain's national elections on Sunday, in fact the opposite happened as they lost 50% of their seats and will not be holding power. Spanish comedian Danny Boy-Rivera joins us from La Caruna, Spain to tell us why the pollsters were wrong, why Spain didn't follow the far-right trend sweeping Europe and why young Spanish comedians are doing way too much crowd work too. Danny is a powerhouse stand-up comedian with an accomplished career in Spain. Follow him on Instagram @DannyBoyRivera.
