[xplorar]

So relatable!!! Italian families seem a lot like Asian and Arab families! Underrated...

[bonniedeitchman]

He is by far the funniest comedian out there. I could have the worst day ever, throw on his show and not be able to breathe from laughing so hard. I love the way he says, "Dad." LOL.

[SusanGaglianoPisa]

Maniscalco in Italian means "horseshoer" (people who make horse-shoes).

[driveshaftrocker]

My Nonno (Grandpa) gave my Mom a necklace with an eye on it when she was a teenager, so if any boy treated her bad they'd get the malocchio haha

[chrisdoyle]

Never heard of this guy... he was great! Love the old school humble Italian, seems like a great guy!

[gamma]

Finally a talk show interview where Sebastian actually looks comfortable! Kimmel is the best and I look forward to Sebastian’s Netflix special. He’s hilarious 😂

Sebastian's obsession with cologne... People who listen to the Pete & Sebastian show would know. Big fan of him and Pete.

Sebastian is gorgeous and his amazing sense of humor makes him even more gorgeous 😍

[esdeeh]

I've never heard of him before, but the way he talks and tells stories is amazing😂👌🏼

Maniscalco looks like he's got a fair amount of cologne aura himself..

[jasonm]
