The guests who were part of the prime time debate which later turned out to be a hilarious comedy of errors were Bohdan Nahaylo, chief editor of Kyiv Post and Daniel McAdams, Head of Ron Paul Institute for Peace and Prosperity.
In a goof-up, Times Now anchor Rahul Shivshankar assuming Bohdan Nahaylo as Mr. McAdams said, "MR MCADAMS, NO HANG ON, HANG ON, IF YOU ARE SO CONCERNED ABOUT UKRAINIANS GET OFF THE FENCE AND PUT BOOTS ON THE GROUND. DON’T LECTURE US HERE IN INDIA OK? I AM NOT GOING TO HEAR YOUR LECTURE."
Soon, the 'actual' Mr. McAdams started asking the anchor why is he yelling at him as he has not uttered a single word. “I am not talking. I am not talking. It’s the other guy who is talking. I haven’t been able to say a word,” shouted Daniel McAdams to Shivshankar. However, Times Now anchor Shivshankar did not understand his gaffe and went on to shout at Mr. McAdams.

Finally when Mr.McAdams was given time to speak he said, "Dear host I have not said a word yet. I don’t know why you are yelling at me.” Shivshankar realised his mistake, paused briefly and then apologised for his confusion. However, all the goof-up was recorded live and soon the video went viral in no time. Not only this, McAdams started trending on Twitter and netizens started sharing hilarious memes on the entire gaffe.
