Episode 095: Sal Vulcano – Creating A Hit TV Show: Impractical Jokers
Sal Vulcano is an extremely intelligent and funny learning leader. I absolutely loved having him on the show. For all of the fame and notoriety Sal has gained from his hit TV show and his worldwide comedy tour, he is one of the most down-to-earth people I’ve ever met. In addition to being a fun fan of Sal’s work, I had the good fortune of meeting him at a charity golf event a year ago and I’ve really enjoyed keeping in touch with him ever since.
Sal Vulcano: The Tenderloins, a New York-based comedy troupe, whose four members – Joe Gatto, James Murray, Brian Quinn and Sal Vulcano – are the creators, executive producers, and stars of truTV’s hit series, Impractical Jokers. Currently in its 4th season, Impractical Jokers follows the guys as they coerce one another into doing public pranks while being filmed by hidden cameras. The 4th season premiere drew more than two million viewers and the program consistently earns Top Five rankings in its timeslot for key demos. This season continues to take dares to outrageous levels with a whole new arsenal of over-the-top hijinks, bringing the show and the guys to new locations and setting each other up for some of the most uncomfortable antics yet.
Their highly successful tour, “The truTV Impractical Jokers ‘Where’s Larry?’ Tour Starring The Tenderloins,” is a mix of stand-up, never-before-seen hidden camera videos, stories and insight. The tour has crisscrossed the country playing to 2000-8000 people per market.
This episode is brought to you by Mizzen+Main. My newest favorite shirts are Mizzen+Main. I work out every day and I enjoy the feel of my workout clothes. These shirts feel exactly like my workout gear does. The 4 way stretch fabric is like no other dress shirt I’ve ever felt before. Originally I purchased one shirt to try them out. When someone told me they would feel like my workout clothes, I didn’t believe them. Then I ordered one… After feeling the shirt and wearing it, I immediately purchased 6 more button down dress shirts and two Henley’s. They are my best looking, best fitting, and certainly the best feeling shirts I’ve ever worn. I promise you will agree after trying one on. A few Mizzen+Main shirts would make for a great gift for anyone who wears button down shirts. After you try 1 or 3 out, send me a tweet @RyanHawk12 to let me know your thoughts! When you go to check out, use the code “ryanhawk” for free overnight shipping or if you want to buy 3 shirts (which is what I do), use the code “ryanhawk3” and you will receive $50 off!
