Volker Pispers (born 18 January 1958)[citation needed] is a German kabarett artist who is well known for his political satire.

After his Abitur, Pispers moved to Bonn and later Münster where he studied English, theology and pedagogy.

In 2002 he first went on tour with his programme ...bis neulich (literal translation: "...until recently" - meaning: "until we meet again"), which was originally conceived as a Best of his twenty years in cabaret.

It was extremely successful and made him a lot more popular, especially due to his harsh criticism of the George W. Bush administration and the Iraq War.

Due to its huge success, Pispers continued to tour Germany with the programme, which he frequently updated according to recent developments, until 2015.
