Slovak is just fine ;) Thanks for the link too, though I'll not give them any clicks lol

Figured it must've been Matovic. Also tracks this was before he was PM, I'm sure I wouldn't have missed it otherwise.

I think it was part of podcast Vlevo Dole where it was like quiz - what Matovic didn't do in function. It was hard because all of the options sounded similarly insane.
