Comedian Sebastian Maniscalco on growing up shy and his Italian roots

[@momma2bubbas]

He’s an introvert . Difference from being shy. He needs to recharge alone ; I totally get that . Introverts can become extroverts for certain situations, but we are hard wired as we are! He’s hysterical.

[@mr.f1rewall2.07]

I identify as an INFJ-T I appreciate this comment! I can relate to Sebastian!

[@Southpaw128]

Well said. People too often associate introversion with social awkwardness or being uncharismatic. It's really just that solo recharge that sets us apart from extroverts.

[@dadeodadeo5487]

He outclasses everyone who interviews him exposing how shallow & superficial they are with his genuineness

[@fireballplay2946]

He is hilarious without being vulgar and using foul language. He points out the absurdities of life and the people we share it with........very funny

[@julierobinson5180]

Mason Kissel I have heard him use 4 letter words before. He is not always family friendly.

[@Booch365]

He’s not vulgar but he occasionally uses foul language!

[@skunkie110]

Yes! Love good clean fun humor. I just don’t find it funny otherwise...

[@epdlp4506]

I love that he does not need to use faul language to be funny. We need more comedians like him.

[@Concetta20]

He does use language, but it’s sprinkled in, instead of every other word.

[@vipteam7422]

Please please don't ever lower yourself to ever talk about politics. Your comedy is a breath of fresh air!!!!

[@sandyfields678]

Hey,,let him be himself..politics can b funny too..

[@dar_jada]

He’s such a physical comedian. Just the way he moves his body and his facial gestures are hilarious. Added to his commentary, he is the whole package.

[@ziggy33399]

What a great guy to watch. A real star.

[@stevedouglas7375]

I could listen to him all day. Sebastian worked hard to be on the perch he now occupies. I also like that he doesn't drop F Bombs all over the place. If the timing were closer, he could have easily fit into the Seinfeld Show. Some way, some how. He truly seems to be a "down to earth" person. Go Sebastian!!

[@marp4735]

Steve Douglas Seinfeld goes to his shows too, Jerry is his idol. What a feeling to see your idol in the audience laughing his head off

[@anon_ya]

I agree!

[@joseestevez2596]

By far the Best Comedian out there presently.

[@debradonato5659]

Love Sebastain 💚🇮🇹🇮🇹♥️💪♥️

[@primarydisguise4327]

I like him cause he’s funny and doesn’t pull that many dirty jokes

[@danielplainview4587]

He's the funniest comedian right now.

[@amadeuschavez.]

He’s one of the funniest comedians I’ve ever seen

[@deicidemaul]

He's great but not the best

[@RDSports5]

He's up there for sure. I think the unique delivery, the physical comedy/facial expressions, can put him among the best comedians to incorporate that a lot in their bit

[@rkidlat]

@Renaud Villacis No, Red Balls has been my hero but I gotta say Sebastian's been...I don't know

[@rkidlat]

@Renaud Villacis Oh btw, u gotta hear Wilfred's story of meeting Sebastian as a young comedian

[@bobseeg2467]

Humble man & a Great comedian!!

[@meadomenica4175]

His comedy is literally life as I know it ❤️

[@kobyschechter8163]

That’s what he does. He makes everyday life hilarious.

[@spoonface9698]

I first discovered Sebastian Maniscalco when Jerry Seinfeld did a Reddit AMA. They asked him which comedians he was into at the time. Watched Sebastian’s Netflix special that night. Been a fan ever since. So happy to see him getting the exposure he deserves! Can’t wait to see all the projects he’s working on!

[@monicdavis6150]

I just think he is so relatable, one funniest comedians.

[@luciapiazzaumberger2117]

I am so happy for Sebastian Maniscalco!!

[@Frankincensedjb123]

Nothing's more annoying than a news crew interviewing a comedian

[@UnrefinedDiamond]

Frankincensed lol all the forced laughs and fake dialogue. But at least someone deserving got some spotlight

[@Viper61769]

Yes & athlete's as well....

Oh his baby is the cutest.

[@mulantisreunitingall888]

It baffles me that he was shy! ^_^ Sebastian is so incredibly talented. You know someone's hiLARious when you watch their show (e.g., "What's Wrong with People") the second time, and you laugh your happy @$$ off until your abs ache.

[@amandah2454]

He is so damn funny

[@jerico80]

The quiet observers are the funniest ones. Thats how i was...i sat in the back...listened...and waited for the right moment and just drop one one them and the whole class dies. And it was even funnier cause i was in the back, unseen and then youd hear it. But i couldnt go on and on like a class clown does. When the class would get bored everybody would look at me to bring the excitement but i was so shy i couldnt with all eyes on me lol!! Love this guy.

[@olymolly3637]

The beauty of quiet geniuses, that's what I call your type :)

[@mistertexaz]

OlyMolly I wish to be more extroverted. People like us are always in our heads. We overthink everything. While extroverts just live live, have fun. Like the class clown. But I’m beginning to think , that once you’re past a certain point in your life and have your lifestyle and habits set in, you cannot really change. Or at least it’s very hard to.

[@dianauppendahl2406]

He is so darn funny!! Can't wait to watch one of his shows!

[@ScottH.]

I can't believe he doesn't have a sitcom yet!

[@hope5360]

Comedy therapy for dealing with parents of any background. You can't go wrong with that base for humor. Luv this guy!

[@jeannierusso2134]

I love this guy his stuff is so funny. I love his mannerism the way he acts things out moves around. That's Italian for you. My daughter and son-in-law I live in New York and my daughter just had a birthday September 1st and I was so trying to get some tickets for her for her birthday but they're expensive. If anyone hears of any of it maybe a little less expensive please let me know by the way they live in Yonkers but they could travel to Connecticut or in New York City thank you so much and keep up the laughter and smile today

[@torial5445]

“Can I talk now? “Lol your guys should let him talk , we want to hear from him , not u hostess.

These anchors are so proper and straight, Sebastian is such a good, comfortable and loose guy 😎 I love his comedy and he brought a funny comfort to the show on this interview 😁

he would be the best neighbor to have across the street. ..

I actually grew up across the street from him.....very quiet Good kid

[@mindtheprivacy]

He's got the greatest jewel, lips and eyes!!!!

[@richieb.6558]

A comedian I like is a guy named Vic Dibitetto I saw him decades ago in Brooklyn at a place called “warm beer and lousy food” in Bay ridge. He still appearing in the try state area. My 46 year old son loves his humor. So we go together to see him. He lives in Jersey to see him together

[@independenttruthseeker8730]

He’s the best comedian today . When is his new Netflix special being released .

[@richieb.6558]

I never realized that Sebastian was an Italian name. I knew as a kid a guy named Sebastian Rego when I first left Italian Harlem and moved to Brooklyn in 1969. He hit it off right away because I gravitated to street guys. He did have a fatal flaw he would borrow money from everyone. Then we would go out drinking. He would use that money and bought drinks for us. He thought because he bought us drinks that he did not oue us the Money and more. One day they found him dead because he borrowed money from the wrong guy.

[@Sonia_Sarra]

Sebastiano is Italian not Sebastian

[@sensimania]

He's the spitting image of his dad!

[@windermere2330]

His parents look like fun and nice people.

[@layna-heyhey]

they barely let him talk. I don't like these morning shows. Their runtime must give only 5mins per segment. His flight to get to the studio, the makeup applied, was probably longer than the actual segment where he talked. smh

[@princhipessa1969]

your only jig-maker 2 1/2 minutes of them babbling. They ask a question & cut him off. Annoying.

[@jjryan1352]

Important thing is to plug his book and show.

[@expendable4h002]

One of the best!

[@BethyKable]

Hard to believe Sebastian was ever why....he’s so funny observing others and how odd we all are....it’s funny seeing yourself through the eyes of someone else. He makes fun of himself too.....and he doesn’t resort to foul language and dirty stories so you can watch with the whole family.

[@briann1181]

The best there is!

[@janicemetzger6338]

He and Seinfeld have similar smiles-- lots of teeth and gums. He is funny!

[@NurseSue425]

Love 💕 him but glad he’s not too dirty. He’s hilarious without being gross.

Sebastian Maniscalco and comedian Lisa Marie - THAT would be good TV. I for one would actually watch TV then; funny, funny (!) relatable people. Let them ad lib half of the show and it will be a hit.
