Italians Are Not Smart | Arthur Cantina | The Thing Is… #354

By



The Boys from Arthur Cantina, JP and Anthony join Shannon and Figs to discuss excitement for Skankfest week and Shannon’s rigiorus schedule of drinking before diving into the stories including an encounter in a car that got too hot and heavy for a young man, an argument over a parking spot in a classic Bronx tale, the boys growing up risking their lives at Action Park, the basement of the liquor store having a very haunted past, dealing with a co-worker having a heart attack in costume and so much more!

    "italians are not smart"
    Thats propaganda
    whos the smartest man to ever exist?
    Davinci!
    but italians are cool so we dont freak out when people say stuff like italians are not smart

    think about the group that really isnt smart, its the group youre not allowed to say that they arent smart

    These guys are very likeable, have them back. Shoutout Cantina boys.
    Awesome show, Shannie, Figs, n' Harrington Bear.

    these dudes are cool as shit. Figured they had to be if they're letting figs hang around lol

    I'd have bet anything, with any odds, that the dude next to Figs was named Anthony before they introduced them. If I had to take a second and third pick, it'd be Dominic then Paul. Either way, these two neighborhood guys were up there with the funniest comedians you've had on the show (admittedly, a lot of the bigger names were on when you had show stopper/wet blanket Matty to really piss on the parade with "tags" anytime things got rolling). Good luck and have fun at Skankfest. I need to try to finagle a work trip back to the US next year around Skankfest so I can go.

    It's CRAZY to me how hard this podcast has been reborn with the addition of Figgsy. 2 guests that aren't even comedians, but just friends of his, and it still was a solid episode. Great job all around, & credit where it's due to Luis for thinking of this pairing.

    Killer Ep. Arthur Cantina boys are hilarious. Awesome guests. These guys aren't comics but hit the mark in this episode. I would absolutely want to see these dudes again.

    "She's dead" had me crying laughing. The best line in the show i think

    The whole series of Naked Attraction used to be on YouTube lol. Looks like HBO got most of them pulled. It’s fun to watch with your SO. 😅

    Definitely Italian, Jesus jumped up Christ I’ve never wanted to be murdered by a ghost more than listening to those guys read aloud 🔪🪓🔪🪓
