How to Fake Your Way to Stardom | Tales From the Bottle
A lighthearted episode of Tales From the Bottle that follows the adventures of a man from Brazil who find out how to live the high life by marketing himself ingeniously.
“Carlos Henrique Raposo (born 2 April 1963), commonly known as Carlos Kaiser, is a Brazilian former footballer who played as a striker, better known as being a “farce footballer”. He was selected to play with many teams in his decade-long career, but never actually played a regulation game and hid his limited ability with injuries, frequent team changes and other ruses.”

A proud Irishman would call it soccer, because:
1. It pisses of the Brits.
2. Gaelic football is better by a few thousands astronomical units.

This geezer reminds me of Meghan Markle. Absolutely fuck all talent but keeps blagging their way into lucrative contracts. Difference is, this bloke had charisma and a good personality.

Whoever (Mr. Narrator?) makes these illustrations really elevates each story. I could watch the most boring story with these illustrations and be delighted. My favourites are the skeptical looks skeptical people give. 🙂

Just for clarification, the term "soccer" originated in England. They used the term, so that's what America called it. Now we use it to piss off the English, too!

I remember hearing this guy's name when I was a kid and he was still playing, but I didn't know much about him until now 😂

A bittersweet reminder that what you need to succeed in your career is an extraordinary social skill, not work skill or ethics.

So, by virtue of never losing a single game, he is the best soccer player of all time.

tbh this guy is neither our most acomplished OR known 'common-folk' conman
a dude got famous, knew all the TV stars, piloted planes, was on all kinds of big events etc etc, until they found out it was just a dude (who didn't know how to pilot a plane btw)
and i won't even get into George Santos (this other guy was actually better than him, idk how ppl fell for that one tbh)

Soccer was invented by and for European ladies, so they would have something to keep them busy while their husbands do the housework.
