Sagovornik is interlocutor in English - but nobody uses that word; I haven't heard it ever, just found it when I was checking. Sa=with, govoriti=speak, so, co-speaker, partner in conversation. Two people who talk are sagovornik to each other.

He would ask questions of the others, and they would reply with the joke. He was the interlocutor. I think he was usually the guy in the middle of the line.

Ah. So I guess to someone familiar with neither, the odds of getting the joke are pretty low? ;)
