Comedian Sebastian Maniscalco on growing up shy and his Italian roots
Вставка

- People magazine calls Sebastian Maniscalco "the comedian's comedian," but he describes himself simply as an "opinionated observer." Maniscalco delivers his unique take at sold-out shows on subjects like his own Italian-American family and the absurdity of modern technology. Maniscalco is performing this fall and winter in shows across North America, including four shows in January at New York’s Madison Square Garden. His wildly successful stand-up tour is called "Stay Hungry," which is also the title of his best-selling autobiography. Maniscalco joins "CBS This Morning" to discuss how his Italian-American family influences his act and his friendship with Jerry Seinfeld.

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.
I identify as an INFJ-T I appreciate this comment! I can relate to Sebastian!
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.
He outclasses everyone who interviews him exposing how shallow & superficial they are with his genuineness
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
Mason Kissel I have heard him use 4 letter words before. He is not always family friendly.
He’s not vulgar but he occasionally uses foul language!
Yes! Love good clean fun humor. I just don’t find it funny otherwise...
I love that he does not need to use faul language to be funny. We need more comedians like him.
He does use language, but it’s sprinkled in, instead of every other word.
Please please don't ever lower yourself to ever talk about politics. Your comedy is a breath of fresh air!!!!
Hey,,let him be himself..politics can b funny too..
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.
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!!
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
I agree!
What a great guy to watch. A real star.
Love
Sebastain
💚🇮🇹🇮🇹♥️💪♥️
By far the Best Comedian out there presently.
He's the funniest comedian right now.
He’s one of the funniest comedians I’ve ever seen
He's great but not the best
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
@Renaud Villacis No, Red Balls has been my hero but I gotta say Sebastian's been...I don't know
@Renaud Villacis Oh btw, u gotta hear Wilfred's story of meeting Sebastian as a young comedian
I like him cause he’s funny and doesn’t pull that many dirty jokes
Oh his baby is the cutest.
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.
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!
Humble man & a Great comedian!!
Nothing's more annoying than a news crew interviewing a comedian
Frankincensed lol all the forced laughs and fake dialogue. But at least someone deserving got some spotlight
Yes & athlete's as well....
You are what you is
News crews are cringe any time they try to act hip.
@@jjryan1352 VERY
I am so happy for Sebastian Maniscalco!!
I just think he is so relatable, one funniest comedians.
His comedy is literally life as I know it ❤️
That’s what he does. He makes everyday life hilarious.
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 😁
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.
The beauty of quiet geniuses, that's what I call your type :)
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.
Comedy therapy for dealing with parents of any background. You can't go wrong with that base for humor. Luv this guy!
He is so darn funny!! Can't wait to watch one of his shows!
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
“Can I talk now? “Lol your guys should let him talk , we want to hear from him , not u hostess.
I can't believe he doesn't have a sitcom yet!
He is so damn funny
Can't wait! I have tickets to see him November in Baltimore!
Sebastian is a sweetheart.
Bravo Sebi.... sei forte.
Sebastian Maniscalco is My Favorite Laugh Out Loud Comedian 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
My left ear was pleased.
Me too! I was so disappointed because they're new!
Lol 😂 I thought I was the only one!
My left ear 👂 was disappointed. LOL 😆
My right ear 👂 was very happy.
LOL 😝
I thought I went deaf. I always put on my right earphone
Another fine Italian.❤️
K Yup those Italian men are hotttt! He is aforbs
K adorbs
Gorgeous gorgeous family.all of you are so special.
he would be the best neighbor to have across the street. ..
I actually grew up across the street from him.....very quiet
Good kid
not surprised 👍
Love this guy.
That dude is so genuinely funny !
I can't stand the obnoxious bantering of annoying network pundits, reminder of why I do not watch television....Love Sebastian tho...
Who's the beautiful woman in your avatar?
They are so phoney!!! They hate each other... Get Our Sebastian out of there... ❤ Sebastian
Patricia Lankpoop ...Exactly, just a giant obnoxious cringe fest..I can not stomach these phonies, (I only watched to see Sebastian ❤️)
Love Sebastian! Great live act.
I love this guy hes hysterical
Love Sebastian. Creatively funny.
My Italian family love him we went to see him last year amazing
He is byfar the funniest man I ever saw.
SEBASTIAN is the BEST......We Love Him.
He's got the greatest jewel, lips and eyes!!!!
Saw him live! Awesome!!💟
Sebastian Maiscalco, I just discovered him , & he so funny! I have been binge watching his UA-cam videos.
I am hoping he has a Tour going or one on Netflix I am about to check.
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
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.
What a cute baby 💓
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.
Sebastiano is Italian not Sebastian
@Tony Montresor duh
I'm so proud of him
He is the best!! Put him on SNL
He’s the best comedian today . When is his new Netflix special being released .
Lol, this guy is extremely funny
Gaffigan, Burr, Maniscalco, are my favorites now days.
YES
Capo di tutti bello 🇮🇹👍🏻
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
your only jig-maker 2 1/2 minutes of them babbling. They ask a question & cut him off. Annoying.
Important thing is to plug his book and show.
His parents look like fun and nice people.
FUNNY ...... COOL FUN! ..... LOVE IT!
I just love this men he is so funny😂😂😂😁😁😁😂😂😂😁😁😁
Yes this dudes hilarious 😂
Gotta come to the west coast for some tour dates
Yes!!!!!
What a breath of fresh air this guy is, and a riot... So sick of stupid humor and the media's assumption that all Americans are crass, flimsy, foul-mouthed nitwits.
There is him and Bill Burr, everybody else is a notch behind as comedians right now.
Add Brian Regan to the list. :)
Dave Chapelle?
Jim galligan
Russell Peters
BEAUTIFUL .
God bless him.
He's the spitting image of his dad!
Too bad the interviewers were so weak. Get it together people! This guy is super talented.
He and Seinfeld have similar smiles-- lots of teeth and gums. He is funny!
One of the best!
I love Sebastian but dislike CBS
DrumrGal4Christ same.
I finally see a picture of his dad! ☺️☺️
THE CAST!
So true! My Italian mom would always say I was smart and handsome !! Ciao
He's a funny guy who makes you think about WHAT ARE YOU DOING??!
Love 💕 him but glad he’s not too dirty. He’s hilarious without being gross.
I think I'm becoming Italian the more I listen to Sebastian.. lol
edwin hamilton especially when you say Uber. OoBur.
@@kennethoriger4939 LMBO...
i would love to see this guy get more into acting...he would be great..even if it be a sitcom im sure would be great..
The best there is!
My lord his wife is hot. No disrespect. 🙂
He is one funny guy. He's even in the movie ? The Irishman with DeNiro and Pesci that too should be a good movie. But Sebastian is hilariously funny. I started watching him a year or so back . Very funny guy. Grazie mille, ciao.
I didn't know Sebastian Maniscalco and the Rock share the same voice 2:22
He looks like he’s judging them in his mind.
Grizzly BƎAR haha, I could see/sense that too! You know he is.
Most definitely! 🤣 Geesh, this man is so funny.
That's what observers do. They think as the watch people & conclude things by themselves.
Grizzly BƎAR hahahaha
do you guys at cbs not understand stereo audio yet? is the show's audio recorded on mono vinyl? my left ear was pleased though thx for that
Matthew 6:9-13 shows categories of prayer points to pray daily.
Not too surprising Him and Jerry are good friends. They seem to share the same outlook onlife.
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.
No volume, unfortunate; I love Sebastian.
I Love Sebastian
As I Am FBI
💚💚💚🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹♥️♥️♥️
Thank you no politics just good clean hyst
Hysterical fun
I identify with him. I do not like to be around people. I have trouble at my job when I have to give a conference in front of a small group of people or just asking someone for instructions. I always ask my son to ask for me because I just can't.
Italy
saw him thanksgiving weekend fort myers florida
Prime time news anchors not relatable , Sebastian is .
💯
Who’s the woman in the sleeveless dress? 💕
Spoiler alert you listen to this with headphones on, as it does that thing where it only makes sound in one ear!
My right ear needed a break anyways...
CBS This Morning?
This is your UA-cam channel and you could not post a clip in stereo?
On your own channel?
Seriously?
Why would anyone subscribe to your channel if you can't be bothered to post a clip in stereo?
toddvandell85 Yeah I couldn’t hardly hear a thing and couldn’t figure out why until I read these comments!!!!!!
