Rating Overview
Rating Summary
Andrew Santino, born October 16, 1983, in Chicago, is a comedian, actor, and podcaster. Known for stand-up specials like Home Field Advantage (2017), Cheeseburger (2023), and White Noise (2025), he blends observational and insult humor. He’s starred in The Disaster Artist (2017), Ricky Stanicky (2024), Dave (2020–2023), and Beef (2023), with roles in Happy Gilmore 2 (2025) and upcoming Goat (2026). Santino hosts Whiskey Ginger and co-hosts Bad Friends with Bobby Lee.
White Noise Review
When it comes to stand-up, the only thing that really matters is whether it’s funny. White Noise earns a steady stream of smiles, but very few genuine laughs.
The material here feels surface-level, lacking the sharper observations or memorable punch that often elevate a routine.
Santino is at his best when firing quick one-liners at friends in shorter formats (see Bad Friends). Stretched to an hour (at least this hour), that spark dims, leaving a performance that lands as solidly average.
WOKE REPORT
Flaccid on Trans
- Santino brings up trans people once or twice, and his position (at least professionally) is apathetic. It’s two seconds long and doesn’t make much of an impact. The reason that it only took ten points off the Woke-O-Meter is that the only right perspective on transgenderism is that it is a mental illness and not to be celebrated or tolerated as a part of a functioning society.
