Perhaps you'd like to watch how Lisa Eckhart, one of the most prolific Austrian stand-up comedians, does her work. Click on undertitles and choose with the gear wheel the automatic translation into English. It is not totally accurate but I think you get what it means.
The names are politicians. You know Merkel. Scholz is the German chancellor, Armin Laschet was the former prime minister of the German federal state Nordrhein-Westfalen (North Rhine-Westfalia) who laughed in a video in the background after the tragedy of the Ahrtal flood with 135 drunken people and wasn't elected anymore for this reason. Kickl is the leading politician of the Austrian right-wing party FPÖ.
The title "3 Engel für Adi" means "3 Angels for Adi" (Adi = Adolf, I think you know whom she means).
The applause and the laughter are real and not from the tape. Decades ago I wondered why in U.S. comedy shows the laughter came from the tape. I even stopped watching "Golden Girls" for this reason and dislike such a nonsense till today.
