A stand-up comedian, podcaster, producer, and actor, Andrew Santino is one of the hardest-working entertainers in contemporary show business. Often juggling multiple projects at once (he's appeared in I'm Dying Up Here, NBC's "This Is Us" and FXX's "Dave"), Santino is immediately recognizable for his observational comedy and shock of red hair.
Born in River North, Chicago, in 1983, Santino was raised by a single mother and lived in Section 8 housing. After attending Arizona State University, one of his first TV appearances was in 2012 on MTV's "Punk'd" reboot, where he was a writer and acted in a number of celebrity pranks. Over the next few years, he made appearances on "The Office," "Arrested Development," "Family Tree," "Mixology," "Sin City Saints," "American Dad," "Curb Your Enthusiasm," "Adam Devine's House Party," "Conan," The Disaster Artist, and more.
Toward the end of 2015, Santino released a comedy album Say No More. That same year, he did "The Half Hour" on Comedy Central. In 2017, he released the comedy special Andrew Santino: Home Field Advantage on Showtime, which was also released as an album.
Santino's biggest break arguably came in 2017 when he played the role of Bill Hobbs in the comedy-drama I'm Dying Up Here. Santino is also well known for his role on the FXX comedy "Dave," which was famously co-created by rapper/comedian Lil Dicky. Santino plays Mike, Dave's roommate and eventual manager.
A prolific podcaster, Santino currently produces and hosts the podcast "Whiskey Ginger," where he interviews friends in the entertainment industry over whiskey. In 2020, Santino began co-hosting a podcast called "Bad Friends" with fellow comedian Bobby Lee.
Opening up about his philosophy as a working comedian, Santino told Vulture in 2016: "I think the fundamental issue with comedians is everyone wants to be a famous comedian. That's a really difficult thing to achieve in comedy. Ask people on the street and there's probably only three famous comedians they can name, unless they're comedy fans. To be famous in comedy is unbearably difficult. But I don't care what people know me for as long as they know me for work that I'm proud of. I love acting. I love television and film. I hope to do that for the rest of my life. I also hope to do standup for the rest of my life. I'm making a living doing both and I'm so fortunate and grateful to be able to do that."

What an amazing show! I cannot wait to see him again!
He put on a fantastic show. I was a big fan before the show and I’m still a big fan. Andrew is a witty goofball and I’d love to see him at another show. Great venue as well.
Hilarious from opening till the end of the show! Set was long but flew by.
Omg my cheeks were hurting from laughing so hard at Andrew Santino's comedy set! He has such fantastic presence and delivery in his jokes. HIGHLY recommend seeing him live!
It was all “F” this and “F” that, even when just introducing the first act! I guess it’s supposed to be an attention getter. Being a couple generations older, I have pretty much heard it all. Most of the show was the next level of crude “potty humor”. About the only subject that got a giggle out of me was some of the political ramblings. Otherwise, the young and drunk seemed to like the show.
I’m an avid listener of bad friends and also whiskey ginger, so it was a bonafide TREAT to get to see santino absolutely slay in KC in March. Such a good time, I havent laughed that hard post Covid in a long time. Just love this sweet little fiery prince.
My wife and I regularly frequent comedy shows and I have to say that we haven’t laughed this hard in a long time. To be honest, I wasn’t sure what to expect with Santino and he really delivered. His set was super tight and had some very hard hitters, for my wife and I at least. Thanks so much Andrew!
I caught myself laughing out loud even when I was trying not to
Great comedian and story teller! I’ve spent many hours listening on line and thought couldn’t be better but I was wrong….he was. Go see Andrew in person!
If you ever get a chance to see Santino, do it! Great opener and just all around a fun, laugh filled night!
My opinion might be biased because I love Andrew Santino, but I had the time of my life. Best night ever!
surprised my bf w these tickets and he was super funny. never watched his stuff before but this was a great intro. thx !
Had such a great time at the show! Andrew delivered so well and we couldn’t stop laughing. Can’t wait to see him live again.
Not what I expected to much crowd work political jokes and the last joke was a dud I almost fell asleep smh
Hello, Unfortunately I had a scheduling conflict that prevented me from attending the show. Additionally, I wasn't able to sell the tickets in advance as they were never allowed to be posted for sale. Super bummed since Santino is one of my absolute favorites.
Absolutely loved Andrew and his opener Chris! Would definitely see both of them again!
He can fit his whole fist up his ass it's really incredible
Cheeto Santino is the man. Best standup I've ever been to!
Very fine tuned hour. Good crowd work. Had the Neptune rolling. Great show.
I have enjoyed watching and getting familiar with Andrew through the Tigerbelly podcast. I was excited to learn that Bobby Lee and him were doing a podcast together. I watch his podcast Whiskey Ginger as well. I totally enjoyed myself at his show. One of the best top 5 comedians to see!!!
