Well, the Cubs won the 2016 World Series, their first championship since 1908. And this guy fucking called it back in 1993, in his senior yearbook quote! Unbelievable!

Sebastian Maniscalco x Stephen Colbert

Comedy, Television, Videos

My new favorite stand up comedian Sebastian Maniscalco made a recent appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. He did some jokes from his latest special Why Would You Do That? for the crowd, then pulled up a seat on the couch for some additional stories and bits. Check it out, and make sure you go watch that new special on Showtime ASAP, it’s hilarious.
