What is Sal Vulcano's journey from Staten Island to comedy fame?
What does your shirt say? Short girls. Short girls. God only lets things grow until they're perfect. Some of us didn't take as long as others. Short girls. That's a very nice way of making yourself feel better about it. How short are you? You don't seem that short. I didn't ask for the backstory. You could have just went 311. Wait, you, all right, wait, because when I asked, I told you, this is how it started, and we'll finish it. You went, well, my jeans, I don't know what's going to come next right now. Your jeans. your jeans are capri pants so that's a capri pant is usually supposed to show up like a whole ass calf what are you really you really are five foot all right you like to say five one but you're honest the first time yeah anyone here shorter than five feet i didn't mean to do that to you i
I was trying to, like, help you out. I'd be like, see? That person's 4'10". But, man, it was silent in here. I mean, you could have heard a small person drop.
On this episode of the Commercial Break.
In the bottom of my heart, I cannot believe what I do. I can't believe it. I can't believe I... I don't know how I... I truly, to this day, think all the time that all I ever wanted to be was a comic, and that's what I am, and that's what supports my life. I swear to you, I think about it all the time. I can't believe I got a show on television that stayed on. I can't believe I do stand-up as a professional comedian. Like, I just can't believe it. But, um... You know, it just was about exactly. It was a lot of luck, a lot of hard work, a lot of rejection. And then at some point you create an opportunity. An opportunity meets preparedness, meets luck. It's a lot going in there that's out of your control.
The next episode of The Commercial Break starts now.
Oh, yeah. Cats and kittens. Welcome back to the commercial break. I'm Brian Green and I'm by myself on this DCV infomercial Tuesday with Sal Volcano. I'm super excited about this way for 12 time. Impractical Joker Sal Volcano here with us today. I'll tell you all about everything he's got coming up. But first, a little explanation as to why I might be by myself. Well, those of you who pay any attention to the commercial break whatsoever will know that over five years of the commercial break, every time around this time each year, Chrissy takes off for an extended vacation in what her and her husband refer to as Mempho. Mempho is a big music festival in, of course, Memphis.
What challenges does Sal face when filming episodes of Impractical Jokers?
Memphofest.com for tickets. I think they're still available. I believe that Memphofest is just an excuse for Chrissy and Jeff to avoid her responsibilities here at the commercial break and party with their friends. But, you know, far be it for me. If I could, I would. That's all I got to say. Widespread panic for two nights. An extended and stacked lineup will be playing and tickets available. Memphofest.com. So go ahead, join her. If you see her, say hello. Tell her we miss her here in the studio. And it's likely I won't even hear from her until she gets back. But that is not relevant today. Here is what is relevant today. Sal Vocano could not... We've been trying to get this together with Sal for a long time, so I could not pass up the opportunity to interview him.
I will miss Chrissy dearly, but we will get through this together. Sal is not only an impractical joker. That's probably where most people know him from. But... He is making noise out there because after many years of being a stand-up comedian, he is finally seeing his comeuppance. He's playing in the Chicago Theater. He's playing, I think it's the Beacon Theater in New York. Let me check that out. He's here in Atlanta at the Symphony Hall, and he's many other places. You can go to salvocano.com. Yep, he's playing the Symphony Hall. And then where is he in New York? Let's see. He's at the Beacon Theater. Oh, my gosh. Unbelievable. These comedians, these, like... Really good stand-up comedians are selling out these incredibly large houses and playing to huge crowds.
And I love it. I love it for the art of comedy. I love it for us because we need them now more than ever.
