I've got to know what they're saying. I think it's Russian, but not sure.
I think the situation is that the guest is telling some tragic story, but has a funny high-pitched voice and the host keeps cracking up when he hears it.
Too embarrassing to believe...

In Soviet Russia....I got nuthin.
Yeah, sounds Russian. Any linguists in the house?
Edit: Seems the husband is talking about his wife coming out of a coma (hence the wheelchair). It's a Belgian show.

Oh and the guy is also a patient, something went wrong and he ended up with that voice.
Except that it doesn't matter. This show is a spoof called In de Gloria which makes fun of talk shows.

I considered that possibility, but it seemed the acting was awfully good for a comedy skit. Right down to the audience members.

Its definitely not Russian. I think its French, but I don't know enough French to really follow what is being said.

I think Martin was right about it being the Belgian show, In De Gloria, which would mean the language is probably Flemish, the Belgian variant of Dutch.
I think the guy on the right here is the host from the clip:

All we need is Ben Jos to chime in and he would certainly let us know if this is Dutch.
