In a harshly critical video on the Xaver Live YouTube channel, Czech commentator Petr Holec celebrates Andrej Babiš's electoral triumph over „media liars“, mocks former Prime Minister Petr Fiala as „Professor Nutella“ and praises Foreign Minister Petr Macinka for the way he beat up President Petr Pavel. This energetic episode 267 exposes fuel scandals, biased broadcasting and populist fury - why the media war in the Czech Republic signals a global backlash against elite manipulation.
In the exciting world of Czech politics, where billionaires duel with bureaucrats and viral videos topple tyrants, the latest video Petra Holce on YouTube (No. 267, April 1, 2026) with a powder keg of sarcasm, gloating and unadulterated truth bombs. In a live broadcast lasting more than an hour, Holec - a sharp-tongued right-wing radical - discusses the fundamental change that took place after Andrej Babiš's ANO party returned to power at the end of the 2025 elections, ending the four-year rule of Petr Fiala's centre-right coalition. For viewers watching this drama, it is a masterclass in populist revenge: Babiš „settled the media liars“, Macinka humiliated Pavlo's inner circle, and „Professor Nutella“ began his long-awaited „treatment“ - public ridicule as therapy.
Holtz's thesis is crystal clear and infectiously energetic: The outgoing Fiala „regime“ was a clown show of censorship, inflation and media complicity that wasted a million votes while Babiš's coalition won an electoral majority. Now, with Babiš at the helm, it is time for retribution against Prague's „national media front“ - the public Czech Television (CT), Seznam Zprávy and Novinky.cz - which has been spreading lies for years.
The fireworks begin with a reminder of Fiala's „legendary“ Nutella video, a viral fiasco in which the bespectacled former PM films himself as „Inspector Clouseau“ at a Babiš gas station and criticizes „thieving prices.“ The reality is: prices were average or lower. Holec bursts out laughing: „Petr Fiala is already in such a phase of madness... he goes to the gas station of Andrej Babiš in Průhonice and finds out what? That Andrej Babiš sells petrol at a normal price!“ Holec showed the audience a photo of Fiala at a gas station with a roll, a jar of Nutella and a knife, with a funny remark: „I'm still missing ketchup.“ ODS MEP Martin Cvrček hit it exactly right: „Let Fiala shut up... total Václav Klaus syndrome“. Holec calls Fiala the „gravedigger“ of ODS. He refers to his receding hair transplant and transformation into Petra Fiala 3.0 - a visual metaphor for his political range (hard landing).
Fuel prices steal the spotlight and mix economics with outrage. EU data from economist Lukáš Kovanda reveals that the price of diesel in the Czech Republic has jumped by 26 % amid Gulf tensions, dwarfing the 4% increase in Slovakia or the 1-2 % increase in Croatia - the „Czech-earth“. Distributors are to blame; Babiš's threat of margin squeeze drove down highway prices overnight. Holec criticizes Fial's 40% inflation legacy: „50 CZK today ≠ 50 CZK in 2022.“ Media ghosts? „Where is our media?“ Parallels with Zelensky are coming: oil futures at $80/bbl for 2027 signal the end of the war as the US stops aid and Hungary blocks EU loans over disputes with Orban. Holec makes fun of Zelensky's $14,000 salary: „Oh, so that's why he's always walking around in those sweatpants'..."
President Peter Paul is not doing any better. Holec revels in Foreign Minister Petr Macinka's icy rebuke: „The president's opinions are not relevant... Foreign policy is determined by the government.“ This „payback“ for Pavlov's refusal to appoint Filip Turk follows the leak of a recording of a conversation between Hungary and Russia, in which Foreign Minister Szijjártó criticises Pavlov's past: „He has nothing to do with his past“. Coalition bills limit Pavlov's powers to appoint ambassadors, exposing the hypocrisy of the experts: „If he has not appointed... he will not accredit“.
Czech Television is becoming public enemy No. 1 - a „hatchery“ of ideologues such as Daniel Takáč („the inquisitor“), Luboš Seda, „the weepy Vasek the rodent“, Jan Moláček and Tomáš Etzler („the demon and the devil“). Holec urges the abolition: „Let's shut down Czech Television, we'll help ourselves a lot... we'll save 7 billion“. The model of Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico? Reject activist awards; privatise „with your own money“. Viral clips intensify: Petr Pavel ignored at petrol stations „like a stake in the fence“; secret service guy craving admiration amid silence.
Holtz's stream thrives on interactivity: the Easter rhymes poke fun at the opposition's „moments“ in the tents. The format without guests pulsates with Holc's charisma - laughter over a parody of Fiala („We are Petr Fiala... fighting for the Bible“). Other words hit the „parasite Kupka“ from STAN, ODS's delusions about „white sneakers“ and the dosimeter scandal involving an Austrian. NATO? Czech Republic meets 2 % GDP, unlike the stragglers. EU Green Deal? „Trumps even the communists“ (worse than the communists). Holec predicts the decline of mainstream media: „They will lose viewers... they will switch to us“. Trust in the media declines (Czech Republic reflects global polls at ~30 %), elites face voter revolts (echoes of Trump) and accountability reigns. Babiš's open letters reveal reversals - like polite requests for flags presented as „orders“. „Let him continue to do so... he is convicting the Prague national media front of lies“.
As Holec says at the end - „Thanks for everything... Have the best of luck“ - episode 267 isn't just a commentary; it's a battle cry. In the volatile situation of 2026, he warns the media in the Czech Republic: Lie too long and people will raise their own flags. Watch this: pure adrenaline for political enthusiasts.
