Popular Podcast, "The Basement Yard"

Joe Santagato and Frank Alvarez are childhood friends, comedians, and the hosts of the very popular podcast, The Basement Yard, where they spend way too much time arguing with each other about pointless things. They chat about anything and everything, from why bread bowls are the best thing to happen to food, how much geese suck, and if Frank really is Jason Momoa.

I feel like a mom proud of their children looking at this

[@KingFVE59]

i cannot believe Joe went from the basement talking about relationship advice & idiots of walmart to THIS. insane shoutout to them

[@TipBase]

"Now it's like a hippopotamus" FRANK WHAT? LMAOOOOO

[@IggyIggyBoBiggy]

Lmao you KNOW Joe was trying not to yell at him for that. He would've if it was on the podcast 😂

[@chellnicole5490]

Joe : “😐😒 not an expression” 😂

[@LukeG13]

I know joe wanted to rip into him after that lol

[@alpacajones3932]

Was waiting for joe to say that😂😂😂

[@mandamecs]

It was actually staged for the Chicago show tonight 😂 they showed a video of them picking three crazy phrases for each other and they had to say them all

[@joesantiago9062]

“It’s like crossfire for idiots” 😂😂

[@Mike90317]

Baby wake up, Joe & Frank are on the news!

[@marilyn9912]

i thought this video was a compilation and when i saw that they were being interviewed im like 'aww those are my boys!!! "

[@Spookserz]

I had this same reaction! 😭

[@flooffys]

i love how frankie does the weird metaphors live on air

[@Ashley-pf7jh]

I love when good people win. This is major, so so happy for them and the entire santagato studios crew.

[@deborabonvecchio]

I'VE BEEN LISTENING SINCE 2016, I'm like a proud mom right now

[@Toni-12-34]

Same!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@S.a.v.y]

Wow, this is so exciting. Who would’ve thought we’d see Joe and Frank on the news I’m glad this popped up on my feed because I don’t live in Chicago so I wouldn’t have known about this lol I’ve never been into podcasts, but I could sit and watch Joe and Frank’s podcast all day. The only people that I can listen to talk about all of the most random stuff.😂

[@rachellarrabee4703]

Frank is picking up some of the Midwest accent dropping his O’s like crazy 😂 love you guys!

[@jgallaa]

I felt like i could hear Joe’s thoughts when Frank said hippopotamus

[@abbymuir4296]

Per usual, Frank is delightfully (bordering on maniacally) unhinged and Joe is just trying to get a point across 😆

[@K4RN4GE911]

These guys are on the news and doing Radio City! THEY'VE OFFICIALLY MADE IT!

[@anneweisbrodt]

[@Crazycatlady6699]

The choice of words makes so much more sense AFTER being at the Chi show

[@ashnicole8633]

I'm an OG fan since the pandemic and the skits about Walmart. Seeing this I have never been more proud especially how hard these boys have worked to get there

[@Grizdorf]

Been a fan of joe since even before TBY. Happy to see these two get all the recognition and flowers they have earned over the years 🔥👏🏼

[@youngslim98]

Joe must have loved being compared to Seinfeld 😂

[@GR-bf8zs]

Omg totally thought that right away. He was freaking with Joy inside lol

[@aliciavasquez4985]

[@meena8175]

Been watching Joe since the beginning! I will always celebrate the 8 days of Halloween, quote Fransisco's poetic works, say, "your name is David, but people call ya 'Joe?!'" and cherish every moment that Joe, Frank, Greg, Keith, Ahmed, Danny & The Picky Boys made me laugh. Love that whole gang of guys!

Joe is not single !!!! Lol

[@NickTasy]

Have to acknowledge Danny! The show would never be where it is now without Danny’s era. I’m surprised they never credit him. Cmon man

[@Nyeusi]

We get that, but Frankie has been the Co host for 2 years now and their success came in with Frankie.

[@aliciavasquez4985]

I assumed it's because he's doing his own thing and maybe trying to separate/distinguish his brand?

[@MoshpitTV]

​@@NyeusiBelieve it or not, Frank's been co hosting for 4 years now.

[@maryelizabeth5393]

He was coming for their throats so much

[@parttimecubing7413]

LETS GO BASEMENT BOIS
